I'm not sure how it works, but if it just cuts the Fuel, you'd be getting SERIOUS lean conditions. I would agree that it must close the throttle down as well.

It would have to do more than just cut fuel.

That means any engine would be running lean, supercharged or not when TC hits.

It can be turned on or off in the tune. Not sure how the PCM comes back from Whipple. But once it's turned off in the tune, you can't turn it on anymore with the button on the dash, and the light on the button is on constantly.

PART#1 The Parts

Well Guys,

Box#1 Finally arrived today. Box# 2 is being delivered tomorrow. 10/5

Box#1 came with everything required to install the blower. I have to give mad KUDO's to Whipple for their neat and organized boxing of these parts. Every part is individually baged and Labeled with a Whipple Part# and description of the part. WOW I'm impressed.

Box#1 Containted:
Ford Racing Spark Plugs
Ford Racing Fuel Injectors
Cold Air Intake Arm
GT500 Fuel Pump
Thermostat
Intercooler
Intercooler Piping
Intercooler Pump
Intercooler Wiring
Fuel Pump Wiring
Bolts & Nuts
Manifold Gasket

Box#2 contains the rest, including BLOWER!! I can't wait!

And I drop the car off Friday to have it installed this weekend!

Here are some pics of Box#1, I will take pics of Box#2 when it arrives tomorrow and I sure will leave the camera for the installer to take pics of the install process and take dyno videos.

Enjoy guys.....

Its Finished!!!!

Well just took a trip to the installer. The KIT IS INSTALLED!!!! He was in the middle of hooking up the rest of the wiring for the TPS extension and the T/B extention, put fluids in the intercooler, put the belt on, put the CAI on, install the gauges and putting the stock pullies back on. (since i had steeda pullies on).

Overall, the installer said the installation was a BREEZE!!! Evrything was detail orineted and well put together!

Now the only dramatic part is the ECU being sent out first thing tomorrow! soon as we get the ECU back, we can put her up on the dyno and take her for a spin!

def. keep you all posted.......

in the meantime, here's a teaser!

he possibly could. But I'd feel much better with the tune from Ford Racing for now, considerin the big debate with the whole supercharging of the 05 Mustangs and using the stock internals. and maybe later on, I'll give dough a call for a tune.

All this drama waiting....you guys made me put this thread on my subscrib list.
Mav....just curious ...may I ask why you didn't go the Saleen route with JDM here in NJ ? I am thinking of doing the Saleen as a winter project on my own.
I would like to see your install when it's done...lunch is on me.
