<<<<<<------------------ waiting for results from someone who spins the 2.9L to it's max blower rpm and who runs race gas with an aggressive tune.

Congrats on the purchase!

lethal called me last week and told me they could order it for me already, im just waiting to see the boost and the power they make with the stock pulley, it might be over 20psi and i wanna be on the safe side i dont wanna blow up my motor, so i would have to use e85 and im not too thrilled with that idea since mine is a DD, let us know how it turns out

i was told by whipple that the stock pully 3.5 will produce 17psi and 3.25 will produce 19psi...but will see.

+1!! I wanna see a pic too

 

[cbr repsol]

yeah im also wanting to know the price/power #'s . keep us informed.:beer:

I put a 2.9 on a 09 shelby it made like 648rwhp and almost matched tq within like 5-10 rwtq if i remember correctly with a 3.25 pulley(15psi). I would think the lil 4.6 should crack those #s and more but pullied for a bit more boost(20Psi). a bit less tq than the 5.4 motor due to displacement.

Wow very interesting..I'm saving up for e-85 2.6 kb. Now that this is put I'm very curious on price and numbers

 

[jm35ny]

I didn`t know that they even released that model yet?

 

[jm35ny]

Does anyone have pricing info on the 2.9?

I always debated what I'd get when the time came, the 2.3, or the 3.4. Now I know. The 2.9!! :rockon:

 

[Root1022]

Come on, this thread is a huge tease!

 

[2003snake]

...believe me the 3.4 is routhless my buddy has a build 5.0 w/ 3.4l in his 03cobra its crazy fast

You didn't even mention that you noticed the ass whoopin' on 64 with the R1

We will be doing the installation of his 2.9, and we will make sure to take many, many pictures.......

how much more is it than the 2.3? Also, how much taller is it than the 2.3? I ask because I already installed the MM strut bar made for clearing the Whipple, and want to make sure it is still going to clear this one. I'm running a stage 5 under it now, but needed the clearance for my Dragon inlet, and figured it would be perfect for the next step (Whipple) too.

wow, isn't that more than lethal sells the 3.4 for?

I figured it would naturally be priced between the 2.3 and 3.4.

edit: the 3.4 sells for 3704 so I guess they are going to be priced the same?

I figured it would be 3500 to 3600.

 

[Root1022]

Exact same price, yea seems kinda weird.

 

[Quicktime_GT]

hmmm.....

Wonder what Tousley ford will sell them for???


ANyone have a 2.3 they wanna get rid of
