Default KB 2.2 here I come!

Yep, I bought a used tuner kit that was previously on a car that was in the 5.0 Mustang mag KOTS contest last year. Blower only has 1500 miles on it and it's polished too! Shortblock and supporting mods will follow soon.

This month will mark the 5th year owning this car. To many, that's a very long time. I'm glad I stuck with mine and will finally build the dream car I've always wanted out of it.

I'm still on the stock block. I'm having the 2.2, built bottom end and everything else done at once. I'm hoping to get as much out of the 2.2L as I can.

Man Maybe I will try to get my car car tuned to around those numbers. Not to sure If I can pull that off with 8lbs on my procharger or not.

congrats that thing is gonna be badazz

looks like you and i are building up the cars at the same time. i should have mine all done by fall/winter time. your gonna have about 100 more ponies than me till i get the T-trim. im expecting 500-520 hp...

im buying a long block with stage 2.5 heads and blower cams. my problem will be FUEL!!!!!

hopefully i get deployed next january so i can do a T-56 swap and build the rear to withstand some abuse. that way i can kick some serious azz on the autobauns in germany next summer. im hunting terminators......
