Just had the Level II Trans. upgrade, (Art Carr Rebuilt) and the PI Stallion Torque Convertor installed yesterday at Dennis shop, all I can say is "WOW" !!! :eek: The difference is like day & night, there was one stubborn bolt that just would not come out of the trans/engine housing, eventually with some persuation it was cut out.
Got a custom Dyno tune from Dennis himself using the Xcalibrator, took a few pulls for Dennis to dial in a respectable 261 rwhp/273 rwtq.
Dennis road tested the Marauder with me riding shotgun, shift points had to be adjusted accordingly, coming back from the road test at a stop light from a stand still, the light turns green and Dennis hammers it and smokes the tires, :burnout: on the 1-2 shift, the tires bark and bite firm at around 6000 rpm's, in no time we're at the century mark, the 2-3 shift also bites hard, Dennis looks over at me, I have this grin on my face from ear to ear,:D I tell him "the Marauder never did that before".
I still have this grin on my face. Like I said before, "WOW" !!!
I spent some time there with Dennis while he Dyno Tuned his own Mustang GT, I believe those numbers were real close to 500 rwhp, I could never understand all those parameters Dennis was accessing in the Data Logger, but it was interesting to see and know how he gets those numbers on the Dyno. Thanks Dennis. :rock: :bows:
KVR's 14" Brakes Kit are next on my shopping list.
