Hey, didn't they say they needed a convertible too! LOL
Hell, with that much power that ought to make up for the power loss I have due to 20" wheels!
OKay!, I'm over my initial jealousy of your incredible luck. Hope you have an absolute blast! CONGRATULATIONS!

I got 20's as well but im not understanding this powerloss or great deal of loss. My diameter is a little bigger not by much, rims definitely probably heavier

Ok, had to add a few more things. On this whole deal, Robert and I dealt with Mike and Steve through the whole thing. Let me tell you, these guys love their work, and it shows in their customer service, and in their work.

Mike never got tired of our endless questions, in fact, if we didn’t stop from hanging around the shop, chit chatting, we could have gone on for hours. That is how much passion he has for this stuff.

And lastly, Powerhouse will not sell you parts just to sell you parts. They are a great shop and really look at your goals, and make recommendations based on your goals. They won’t try to sell you something you don’t need, or replace a stock part that really performs well even under track conditions.

So it’s a no brainier to do business with them again. Trust me on that. They are a top notch shop.

I agree 100%. I've made three stops @ PowerHouse since October of last year and have equally flooded Mike & Steve with emails. They do great work! My car is up there as we speak for the V8 turbo & a forged bottom-end sb. I can't say enough about their work ethic and quality. A few times Mike has told me "no, you don't need that" or "no, it's not necessary" when he could have easily made the sale. Service like that is worth the drive.

The wife loves the idea of getting a turbo, but my wallet is saying no (for now!). Best wishes to Rygen - thanks for keeping the 4.0 fire lit.

It's not a problem, they just had to do some custom work. But that is required on a lot of dual setups on our cars. I will get pictures of my dual setup under the car this weekend.

I don't see it as a problem. When you order the turbo, Powerhouse can provide you with a Y pipe to come out from the turbo so you can go duals. But from there, you will have to do some cutting and custom work to make them fit right. This Turbo system is designed for a V6, duals do not come with our car stock.

I mean, we are talking like 70 bucks of custom work at an exhaust shop here. The Y pipe, and some adjusting of the rear pipes and fitment.

How big is the largest part of this setup? I need to find out if the USPS will ship it to germany. Then I would have to find someone who can install it! Otherwise, I wont be getting this till at least september or october of 2009 and only then if I still have the mustang.

300-330HP on the Autobahn would be nice!
