Swapping won't be bad at all, most of the time consumption revolves around the initial routing and component relocation ( i/c, ecu, fusebox, a/c lines, battery, etc) which wont need to be touched during the swap. I'd guesstimate less than 6 hours for the swap itself once the built block is ready to go.

 

Yeah,...that right there is killer. Love to be able to have that option.
I read about this a while ago, not a Mustang, but on a Camaro. You have like 3 different settings to chose from, if IIRC.
I do believe that you can do that with a supercharger nowadays as well. I am pretty sure that Procharger has that option, if we're talking about the same thing here. There is the mild, then the wild, then the beast mode and "custom" programmable mode as well. The first three modes are "pre-programmed" from Procharger.
Please keep us posted on your build Mike. Sounds awesome.

 

Yeah the ProCharger i-1 is a huge leap forward in configurability on a supercharged platform, I contacted them directly and spent a good bit of time learning about what it brings to the table. It doesn't offer anywhere near the level of control you'd have with a staged controller on a turbo but it's killer none the less. It's nearly as expensive as a twin kit but if and when it comes down to the 5 to 6k range, I suspect it will be the hot item to have. If it were to hit that price point, it would be the closest thing to the best of both worlds that exists IMO.

Also, I've got my camera mount for in-car clips and my 285s mounted but the rain has been relentless the last 3 days. I'm hoping to start capturing some footage in the coming days. Here is my footage plan, let me know if I'm missing something you guys would like to see/hear.

- 0 to 60
- 60 - 120
- 0 - 120
- 2nd gear pull
- 3rd gear pull
- 4th gear pull
- Running through 5th
- Cold start + idle + engine bay clip
- Warm start + idle + engine bay clip

Anyhow that is my lineup so far. Thoughts? Thanks!

 

Sounds awesome Mike.
Looking forward to the videos. Figures it's got to be raining now that you want to go out and play. lol It's been raining here for almost 2 days as well.

 

If you can film some shots of you revving and such so we can hear the bov!!

 

Is it difficult to tune a tt setup?

 

No worries, this Tial screams, you'll hear it anytime I'm beyond 3k rpm.

 

I'm not really qualified enough to answer that question but I can say that I've been running on this TruDyno tune with zero problems and that is while logging & reviewing like a hawk. I know Armageddon has a base tune that is not derived from an SCT base tune (suspected cause of #8 failure) that they use and include with the system, from there a qualified tuner can tweak the tune based on customizations/gear ratio/etc. that you may have already done to the car.

 

My plan was to record all the shots this weekend but it rained on and off the whole time. It feels like the rain hasn't stopped for the past 2 weeks here in PA. Anyhow, I was able to capture a few random shots while driving up in the mountains/Jim Thorpe area. This is totally random, a few pulls to 100 and some driving on a few back roads that were pretty beat up. This is the first time I've ever recorded anything going on in my car so I learned a few lessons like turn the f'n GPS off and it wouldn't kill me to dust a little : O ) Anyhow, we're supposed to have a few clear days in a row so I'll work on the planned clips but here are some shots in the meantime. Also, I forgot about my TPMS sensors when the new SSRs went on the other day.

 

awesome set up!

what did you end up doing for a camera mount w/ your recurs?

 

Thanks man! I ended up going with RAM's RAM-B mounting arm stuck directly to the windshield with the camera upside down. I tried the driver's door window but I wasn't able to get a clear view. Anyhow, the RAM mount is a beefy piece, here is a link on amazon:

 

That BOV sounds gets me all sorts of tingly.

 

You and me both!

 

Was just reading through the thread again and saw this post. Where are you located. I would love to check out the setup for sure!

 

Wow, I'd drive down to PA just to check that bad boy out. It even looks phenomenal. Great choice!

 

I think I may be getting this kit as well. OP can you message me where you got it tuned and installed by any chance?

 

Hey Joey, yeah I'll hit you up separately but I wanted to mention that the kit was already installed, tuned, then driven from NC to PA by the time I was able to get the very first batch of install pics up. I've got over 3k miles on her now and she's running wonderfully.

 

I dont know if my messages went through to you Mike but I might as well thank you publicly as well.

You saved me a boat load of cash and I couldn't be more thankful. I will be getting it installed at JPC and can't wait to get the ball rolling. I will let you know all the details once Justin @ JPC and I discuss when i can bring the car over for the big install.

You, Mike, are the man for helping out a fellow mustang owner who you don't even know personally. Hopefully the date I drop the car off at JPC you are able to swing by I can see your beast.

Thanks again for everything and will keep you as well as the forum updated with the build!

 

You're in good hands with the guys at JPC. (I hear good things about that shop.)
I know someone that got their twin turbo '13 GHIG Stang tuned there and the car is BEAST! Over 1,000 HP I believe, but still street driven as well.

 

Ok so I just wanted to add that the car is currently being featured over at SVT: http://www.svtperformance.com/?p=1909. I'm pretty stoked, this is the first time anything like this has happened to me. The first comment had be nearly crying with laughter and the fact that they approved that comment makes it all that much funnier.
