Wow Turbo, I think its great that you're getting the kind of numbers that you are from your setup. I'm sure you'll do our Mustangs proud...

BUT,
I think I need to re-iterate my points here:

I am speaking about near-stock Mustangs here. Many folks don't have the opportunity or money to totally build up their cars, and to be honest, other than the long block using stock internals, your beast is FAR from stock...

I've seen the prices of the TDC units and seen them run on the dyno.
The stage one kit costs more than most supercharger units with less gain on most near stock Mustangs. Many stang enthusiasts who are interested in forced induction cannot do their own work, and the TDC kits, while comprehensive, will take some man-hours (cash) to install.

The stage 2 kit costs even MORE. While I admit that the gains of a unit on a near stock mustang will be a bit more than a supercharger setup, you're definately going to pay for it....

You're right Turbo, throw some money at that setup and it will fly. Its just some of us have to do it a bit at a time...
