Sorry, just remembered that's from a different forum, mustang evolution. So add $95 to the price I quoted. It's a 6% discount.

Well I'm glad I got this feedback. This is my car, but I'm the sales manager at Late Model Racecraft, so all this was performed for free for me. I understand that the labor rate is high, but we are typically doing quite a bit of custom fabrication at our shop. We are most known for our ls based cars. The main reason we are working on fords now is because I have one! Lol. Not only that but ford finally has a good mustang that can compete with the camaros without having to go forced induction.

Check us out on Facebook, I'm constantly adding photos and info on our current builds. We are currently putting a 4.0L whipple on a 2013 GT500. It should make some crazy power, but unfortunately the new 5.8L motor blows head gaskets when you push more than 800rwhp... We'll find that our though!

Thanks again for the feedback, and I'll see if I can sharpen my pencil and get our package prices down.

Garrett

You're all way off!!! I hate seeing ignorant tards try math. Ill enlighten you all.

You multiply .15 by 1.21 gigawatts then take the barometric pressure times 88 mph.

This place won't always have such a smart man like myself to fix your arithmetic.

Serious now, nice gains OP. congrats!

Think of it this way:

If he is losing 15%...then he only has 85% at the wheels.

.85 * crank HP = rear wheel HP

or

rear wheel HP / .85 = crank HP

in his case

415 / .85 = 488 crank HP
You knew what I meant jack wagon lol

Alright guys,

I've sharpened the crap out of my pencil and got the price waaaaay down. I've updated the price on our website.

Everything is the same as before except that now the price for everything installed and tuned is $1,899

Is that better guys?

Easiest parts to install too. That was $1100 wasted IMHO! Not trying to be a jerk, just thought you should know.
But he gets more out of a dynotune which may explain the good numbers as compared to a can. Id take the performance. $ is just a tool.

This guy gets it. For an additional $350 we will perform a custom dyno tune so that would bring the total to $2250

Nice numbers, congrats

13:1 on a FI motor? 12:1 @ WOT on a FI motor is still considered lean form a lot of tuners.
