He has a 6.2 A8 on a mustang.He sounds very very happy over his BB tune.I am interested in his TQ managment and how the trans shifting feels.

Lets see how this unfolds,congrads PMS let it flow

This is an Edelbrock right? I would think with the twin intercooler design the IAT's would be lower for only 6psi.

None the less I bet it runs great.

The lower numbers are also partly due to the mustang dyno too. Just not sure how much lower they read.

The trans shifts beautifully under heavy throttle or wot. Bangs off each gear like a pro. Even will drop however many gears in an instant to get me above 4k rpms if I mash it. Slow speed it's still a little less than perfect, but it wasn't perfect stock either

Yea I'm surprised at the iats myself. Just cruising around its 25-30 above ambient. I couldn't duplicate Don's high iats, but that may be the difference of dyno vs the street.

Yea... RESPECT! Lol. I'm torn with still wanting more boost and trying figure out with why the hp drops off so fast vs it's my DD and I'm happy so don't **** with it

From my experience, my car made 618 rwhp on a dynojet and 586 rwhp on a mustang dyno. Boosted LS3 on 7lbs

It's from a sci-fi show called Firefly. There is a character that has a gun he calls Vera that he treats and talks to like it's a lady. I mean that's normal ...right?...
