The fastest is probably Brian (dohc324ci).

I was talking about a meet up at Cattleman's but then I think we all got distracted with ideas of the Vegas Marauderville actually happening. Are you going?

I will be 425 territory by 5/01/15 and well over 500 rwhp by June. Nothing compared to the big boys in here (49 state'rs). Many run 700+ rwhp and, I forget names, but a few run twin turbo monsters.

Want more power? See BRG Racing in Martinez. He just finished a customer's Marauder with a Vortech blower.

We should all get together at some watering hole and meet-n-drink.:beer:

Project pictures (Post 40) and videos (to follow) are being posted on this thread - http://www.mercurymarauder.net/forums/showthread.php?t=58600&page=3

BRG Racing completes my engine (non aspirated) build project around 5/15/15. ADTR Vortech supercharger follows so after. So sign me up for a June date.

I spoke to Chris at ADTR today. He shared he has Crown Vic customers who have big block Ford engines and Stage 3 units installed. Can you say 700+ hp? Imagine your CA Marauder with all I am doing and still having your ass handed to you by a Crown Vic. Depressing. :)

Look at the price difference tho lol plus there using big block to make that power you could build a small block to put out 700 with a power adder as well. after this mild build I'm doing I'm hoping to be at 550-600 Rwhp still be able to daily it like a champ

I am doing the same. I feel we will end up with what a Marauder should have been in the first place.

I have selected the Proton Plus Nitrous kit (http://www.nitrousexpress.com/20922-10-all-ford-efi-single-nozzle-system-35-50-75-100-150-hp-with-10lb-bottle.html), 12 lb bottle.

I will let KC, BRG Racing, decide on the jet size to ensure I protect my new motor. I want the added boost but not risk breaking my new engine.

So, I will be 425 (non aspirated) + ADTR Stage 2 (TBD) + Nitrous (75).

Usually 75 shot is safe for boosted cars

Thank you.

BTW, why does the Proton 12 lb bottle cost more than the 15 lb - by a lot?

Remember, 2-digit automotive iq. I realize bigger bottles hold more nitrous gas. But, why is the 12 ln bottle so much more than the 15 lb bottle, which is bigger?

http://www.nitrousexpress.com/20421-10-proton-plus-nitrous-system-w-10lb-bottle.html
$445.00 plus a 5 % discount (Code: SPECIAL5)

Same kit but comes with bigger lines and nitrous jets from 35 to 200 hp. And the cost of the bottle since its a 12 pound I believe this one has 6 an lines and is direct port


The 15 pound bottle kit is the same as the 10 Pound bottle kit. The bottle is the only diffrence between the 2 same 4 an lines and is only single nozzle injection

Yes. I wrote about it in the thread, "This following ADTR", or something similar. I will own an ADTR Stage 2 Vortech, which has the CA Carb cert # for 2003-2004 Marauder.

Warren, a customer of BRG Racing, is in the mid 400's, at least. Warren ' s ride was being dyno tuned today. He has a nice setup.
