I’ll be picking it up on Friday. It’s a nice mild bracket set up. :dunno: Made 701.3 FWHP at 7500 rpm. They tell me it’s a nice safe tune so there is more HP if I decide I want it :nono:

My wheels are arriving today too.

Oh ya it made 535 fpt

it’s a slight overbore 2.0 that’s balanced, pauter rods, wiseco pistons, oringed, lightened drivetrain, t70 turbo, dual fuel pumps, magnafuel fuel regulation stuff, standalone style setup. i’d like to see 10s, i initially planned on trying for 650whp on the bottle but ended up with a much larger turbo setup due to my redline moving from 7k to 10k. problem is i’m going to be the first person to take these cams to 10k so i’m not gonna put the good head on till i see what happens.

oh yeah it’s a talon/eclipse
