Yep. 387HP and 297 FT-Lbs on 13 PSI. Conservatively, about 420HP at the engine. Not too bad for low boost but bringing the turbo to 16-17 PSI will easily add another 100HP. For now though 13 PSI is plenty fast and I have other areas to work on (interior, suspension, brakes) before I start playing with the boost again.
That is one of the nicer looking FCs I've ever seen. The blue is brilliant and blacking out the tail lights really cleans up the back end. With two tailpipes it would be perfect.

530 @ 18psi
This setup is old news though, I'll have some pics of the latest progress up in a week or two.
I'm sure everyone has already seen it before:

thanks. Wish my engine bay was as clean as yours, curious to see what shell put down on higher boost too.
The exhaust is a 4in mandrel bent with a Borla XR-1 muffler, and a 5"magnaflow tip...
If I had to do it again I would probally run the same 4in downpipe than a cut out before reducing it to mate to a Racing Beat exhaust.

I have the same question as ITSWILL, what kind of drivetrain mods did you guys do to handle that kind of power What I mean is like CV shafts, driveshafts, diffs, gearbox, and others that I maybe missing. Also, if we could know what company produced the drivetrain parts and/or what vehicle they were originally for, we would greatly appreciate any information we could get.
