Finished up the install of the x-Charger last night, took a total of 6 hours, taking our time! It was a easy install due to the lack of inter cooler, all went well with great instructions and a well put together kit! Link
After loading the Tune the Mustang instantly roared to life! A much deeper tone and responsive throttle from the v-6 Nice Kit!
Here are a few pictures.

The Pony made 240HP/260Tq at the rear wheels from the results on the heart breaker, the tune was rich and the operator said at least 30 more hp could be had, Hes gonna contact the tuner for a updated tune then back to the treadmill

With this X-Charger one would expect 30-40+hp, but it varies, cooler is better!
