The Vortech is in!!

Well, the Vortech is in... first impression: HOLY FAWKING SHEEETT!!

After wading through rush hour traffic, I finally got to FAST Specialties around 5:45 pm. I talked with Amber and Ron quite a bit. Travis, the installer and tuner, had already gone home. Amber said Travis was very pleased... he has a 380 hp supercharged V6 himself (can't remember what car he has though). Everyone in the shop agreed... she's fast!

While Amber was finishing up her paperwork, I took it for a spin around the neighborhood. Let's just say, the burnout produced a nice smokescreen behind me and she chirped 2nd with glee! She got up to 60 mighty quick!

The one thing I noticed was the sound of the blow off valve... sounds like crickets below 40-45 or so. Amber suggested a larger blow off valve if it gets annoying (the smaller the valve, the louder the sound). For now, I can live with it.

I really haven't been able to get open her up tonight. It's late... and I'm tired. But, I can already tell, she's pulls like a *****!

So, here's what many of you have been waiting for... the numbers... from a Mustang Dyno with the 10psi pulley.

Max HP: 317.4
Max TQ: 298.6

In a week or two, I'll go in for a recheck and they'll put on the aluminum driveshaft and safety loop. They're also going to change out the fuel filter since I was running 87 octane for 10,000 miles or so. Then, we'll stick her back up on the dyno and see if there's a few more hp in her.

All in all, I am pleased as punch! This is officially the fastest car I've ever driven! Dig it!

More pics and vids to come later this weekend... for now, just a couple night time shots...
