VaporDude Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 While I was in Orlando, I made a visit to VMP Tuning. They installed a 2.4 pulley, 90mm idler, 67mm VMP throttle body and SCT tune. The stock pull on the dyno was 583 RWHP and 585 lb/ft torque. After everything was installed and the engine tuned, it was at 688RWHP and 716 lb/ft torque. We used the stock instake and it was really hot and humid that day. This car is a new animal now and thanks to Justin Starkey and BJ McCarty for getting this done. It was the best bang for the buck spent on the car so far.

DubbsFaris Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 Can you believe you can get so much from such a small investment?! VMP did my very first tune on my 2008, and I never had a single problem. Good job Justin and BJ! I'd be really interested to see that against the RS3......just sayin.

glroy Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 I am quite interested in how this goes. What kind of boost are you getting with the new pulley? 17 or more? What about heat? have you noticed any timing being pulled? I have gone this route with my 07 stock blower and spinning it like a hurricane. Need to upgrade HE for this to work. Now you start looking at the 13 doing 15# of boost stock. It makes lots of heat stock Does have a bigger HE The bang for the buck is good but I am starting to look at maybe a 2.8 KB might be not too much difference in price and will run a lot cooler. A stock takeoff should be good for at least 1500.00 and if you can get a good price on a KB the cost is starting to get close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A stock takeoff should be good for at least 1500.00 and if you can get a good price on a KB the cost is starting to get close. I had a lot of discussion with Jon Lund on this. It appears the stock blower config makes about 13-14 lbs of boost on the 13-14. I have already installed the JLT 127mm intake and the Ford Racing CJ 65mm - under full boost on my factory gage it looks like I am making 14 PSI. I have the VMP 2.4" pulley to install this weekend. Jon indicated this should get me to 15-16 PSI. I also have the Lund tune installed. I was a bit diasppointed with the stock blower boost - I though it made 15 PSI out of the box.

RedruM Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 What was the total. Seems like a good quick mod. What about your warranty? How long did it take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaporDude Posted September 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 BJ can chime in on the price. Mine is the first with this particular configuration. I haven't noticed any heat soak yet. It only takes less than a couple of hours. They were shooting video when they did mine. I'll let you know how much boost later. Since I have the track package, I need to get to that screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedruM Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 Man these cars are amazing. 100rwhp from a pulley, TB and tune. Wow. What's VMP say about our factory warranty with their experience? And a PM on the price would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaporDude Posted September 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 It is up to the dealer if the factory warranty will stay in effect. If you have a mod friendly dealer, go for it. It really comes down to Ford has to prove that the mod caused the problem. But it is their word against ours and the tuners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
