Default Powerhouse Turbo Installed!!!!

That’s right, you read it correctly!!! The 1st powerhouse customer unit is installed in my car, and the 2nd unit is installed in Excepcion13’s car!!!!! We are at powerhouse right now waiting for them to wrap up Excepcion13’s dyno tune.

About a month ago, I heard Mike was looking for a automatic for the first turbo install to document the install. Well I looked up the location, and they were about 6 hours from me in DC, though I’m originally from PA. So I called Mike @ Powerhouse for the free install deal and my luck held true, he needed an auto. In fact, he needed 3 cars, and I figured, hell, I should call Robert (Excepcion13) and convince him turbo was the way to go, which didn’t take much! LOL.

So, two weeks ago, we drove our stangs up to Girard PA (right outside of Erie) and drove a rental back down. Today, two weeks later we are finally picking up our cars. We just didn’t get Turbo’s though, check out the list of mods on this massive trip:

Excepcion13

• Powerhouse Turbo @ 8 PSI w/Intercooler
• Powerhouse UCA
• Powerhouse LCA
• Powerhouse Panhard Bar & Brace

Rygen

• Powerhouse Turbo @ 8 PSI w/Intercooler
• Boost Gauge
• H20 Temp Gauge (switching out for a electronic AF wideband once Powerhouse gets it in)
• Powerhouse UCA

Now, we won’t be able to post dynojet numbers and track slips for about a week. We may hit the 1/8th track Wednesday night to get some preliminary slips. Also keep in mind Powerhouse uses a Mustang dyno. So, we should be back home in about 8 hours time, at that time I will post some final mustang dyno numbers, or call one of the board members to post them as my laptop battery is dying!

Man, I can’t wait to go to the track!!!! I’m dying to get Stella on the track, the wait is killing me!!!!

Also, here are some pics for you guys, more to come along with videos. Enjoy!!!

I'm about to give it a test drive in 30 minutes, however, my laptop battery is dying. Doh, forgot to bring the plug. What I will do is call a member to post some details while I'm driving it down from PA to DC. It's awsome. And, the JBA's sound awesome on this car, I think they sound better than my flows. Excepcion13 has the JBA's on his and it sounds awesome with the turbo.

Congrats dude!!! This is so awesome!!! WOOHOO!!!

Ok... it did just get off the phone with Rygen. His car put down 299RWHP on a Mustang Dyno.... so figure right around 320RWHP to 325RWHP on a DynoJet! WOW!! Excp13 put down 303RWHP!

Rygen got on the gas while we were on the phone... You could really hear his car absolutely ROARING in the background!!!! I can't wait to see some video clips!!! LOL!

Drive safe you guys!

EDIT! I was wrong! Exp13's 1st pull was 303... his final pull was a mind blowing 328RWHP!! on a Mustang Dyno!!!!
