Last pull I ever did was prob over a year ago on the mustang dyno. Then Tq converter blew out. Had the transmission and the tq converter pulled out and had Protorque did the tq converter and had SHR did the transmission. I have been curious to take it back on the Dyno.
All I know after you do stuff beyond the intake/exhaust/tune, prepare to have the tq converter blown out. I'll prob get it done sooner or later. I finally got my VVK updated V12 sway bar about a few weeks ago so it will be in the shop sooner or later.

Don't waste your time with a billet turbo wheel. Go all out and get new turbo manifolds fabbed and new turbis. Even if you get new turbo wheels, the manifolds are very restrictive.

I want so much OEM look as possible.... I must think a lot about this before I decide what is the best solution. Wasn't it so that the GT35 was too big and manifold to small with them?

My next step would be the billet turbos... but I cant decide which company I'm gone let it do. I don't know is the Speedriven anymore at the market.
