V-mount FD with electromotive install for customer

This is a V-mount setup we did over a year ago on a mostly factory FD (FDwarrior). We modified the y-pipe and other items making it non-seq in the process as well. Note that everything is rubber supported so that the radiator and intercooler will never break. Also installed the electromotive Tec GT into it with custom coil mount. The engine was a old reman, and this is why its not so shiny and clean . We just started with the management and getting it to run cool and strong. Figured I would post up some pics as people were asking about v-mount setups.

Well it wasnt quite 400ft-lbs but it was close enough at 385 rwtq. Stock twins, stock ports on 93 octane. I am certain the electromotive is largely responsible for the engine taking this abuse on many occasions while the boost controller was having some issues.

5250 rpm is where the HP crosses the TQ and becomes greater. the graph only shows to 5025, therefor tq is higher.

Another thing to remember is my car dose not always make these numbers. Its not like Im driving around like this. The boost controler had an issue and allowed the stock twins to spool up to 32psi or so. I must say it was fun when I did on the street.

21 psi to be exact. 32psi would have been very insane.

When frank was in the car on 16 coming home from NAPA my boost gauge pegged at 32psi. Ask Frank, it was insane, and fun.
