@ 93pony:
hey i dont know who you are but I do appreciate that someone from AED looked into this post. When I spoke to drew and sean, the high volume of customers wasnt something that was brought up. All I was told was it was too much of a liability. I DO regognize that yall have a very good reputation on your work itself, I've witnessed a couple of the monsters AED has created at the drag strip. I still dont quite get how this post became focused on trashing aed or ffp or whatever but I do appologize for the misunderstanding. I do sincerely appreciate how you've maintained such a professional approach to this matter though. thanks man

So who are you? My car has dyno'd 312 at school, but hey, im sure youve been there all 4 times ive dynod. I told mr lee about my setup and he asked to see the turbo. I showed mr thompson first because a 5xx hp audi tt daily driver seems pretty credable to me. I showed mr lee the turbo and he said he liked what he saw, but hey, im sure you were there for that too. Im not asking you to be impressed... I'm pretty sure I dont even know anyone with a 95 gt. Im saying this is what I'm doing and this is my experience with it. Nothing more, nothing less.

thanks for clearing that up greasy
blkfox, thats been a concern of mine because i know ls motors are pushrod and since i havent really heard anything about them working on a modular, I am slightly worried. thank you for putting in some actual input though. your post was exactly what ive been asking for from people. but let me ask you, do you know anyone else around here that can get this done? im running out of options here and im more and more considering FFP as a last resort now.

And NEVER will my car go back to FFP, they already blew one of my cars up on the dyno! Cost me a motor!! Learne my lesson!

did you check the link to moddedmustangs that I posted? Please dont answer that, I already know you didnt. Any who you had me up till "i like the convenience of having my tuner in town and..." after that it didnt make much sense to me up to where shaun will be tuning your new setup. let me back up though and remind you TO READ THE THREAD and stick to the topic please. AED was mentioned in the post but they are not the topic. Now your input about FFP blowing your motor, I do appreciate because you're influencing me to look elsewhere BUT I'm still looking where else I can get the tune with. As of right now I'm stuck looking for an SCT tuner so I can unload my car at FFP because I dont know what else is out there.

Billy at FFP is a buddy of mine. They are located only a few miles from my house and if Billy needs any Ford tuning help, he's got it.

Maybe I missed the pics of the car, I only seen turbo kit pics and some stupid photo of a girl! So yes I did look, and never said anything about the AED topic that was dogging u out! Only that I had a simular experience when I was turbo, didn't wanna trailer my car to AOP or RET! The only other tuners in this state that I personally trust! Cameron park is not far from sac buddy! That's still considered the "SACRAMENTO AREA" to me! All I can say is, tuning is 100% the most important part of your build so u need to take it very seriously before u wind up with a toasted motor! Budget all u want but don't budget your tune!

Billy was who tuned both rigs I brought there and he was the best customer service oriented as well.

Billy at FFP knows whats he's doing, as does Shawn, and I've heard Nate at AOP is doing well too.

Casey. You had a 10.5:1 Mach 1 on 8-10lbs with a focus pump, and possibly and BAP w/ 42's. absolutely not enough fuel. And bill did not tune your car. Show me a N/A mod motor that has had boost on it for any amount of time that's been driven aggressively that still lives, YOU CAN'T! Boosting those motors is like playing with fire, regardless of the tune, you know that. Stick to the facts!


Sarge. Be prepared to be nickle and dime'd to death by the O3P kit. The turbo itself isn't the problem, it's everything else associated with it. READ READ READ... And listen to people with FIRST HAND experience with it. I have 2 friends with these kits now, and they've been headaches from the get go. It can be done, with the right amount of money lol

Make sure you use an oil restrictor on that Chinese turbo and it might last awhile.

And as far as software goes, SCT is the standard for Ford tuning. No one who knows anything about anything is going to tune a turbo'd anything with Diablo lol

Thanks red and daddy. I met billy today when i went to force fed. after talking with him i dont think we'll have any issues with the tune so ffp has my business. If an issue arizes, ill post it here. He gave me some good advice about the wastegate and other components. Looks like were ready to go.
Right now im looking for an sct tuner. Heres my offer, my predator AND steeda cai for a hand held or both plus some cash for a tsx or itsx, preferably the tsx out of all the abov mentioned. If yall can help spread the word about this id appreciate it
