TVS installed

Just installed the new FRPP TVS supercharger with the Evolution stage 1 tune (Stock 3" pulley). I can't get over how easy these cars are to mod......Even a class 1 shade tree mech like me can do it. Instructions from Ford are very detailed with great illustrations. Everything fit perfectly including the cold air unit. I have only been able to run it a short time but the SOTP feel is MUCH bigger than I expected from the advertised hp (196 rwh over stock) and from my 2.6 pulley and cold air kit. Torque comes up on the throttle position much faster. This thing REALLY pulls hard now. Can't wait to get out when spring comes. I was a bit hesitant to get this unit because of the high $$ but I am not dissapointed in the least Also many thanks to Fred at Evolution, customer service is GREAT !

Next (must have) mods: a pair of wings and a pilot's license.

ENJOY!

Were there any adjustments required for the boost gauge? If so, was it part of the tune?

The TVS pulls more boost .......I saw 14 to max a few times....Traction was severely limited with the cold and damp roads. The EVO tune is much more aggresive than the Pro cal that comes with the kit and covers all the parameters of the engine operation. ( have not used the stock tune). I't requires 93 octane. It's really almost more than you can drive on the street with stock tires.
