Yes sir! I think I am #003. I hope to get rid of the little nuances ASAP!

Updated first post with Dyno results!

Thread Update:

The car has been boosted for about a year now, so I thought I would make an update here. I have enjoyed it quite a bit and have been making little tweaks here and there. There are still the occasional odd noises and vibrations, but overall the car seems to be doing very well.

I had installed my Fast Intentions 3" TDX last Summer and love it. The Mil-Spec Cats get rid of the gas odor and the sound is awesome. VERY happy with this setup.

I replaced my PLX Devices gauge setup with 3 Depo Racing gauges in the triple meter for Boost, Oil Pressure, and Oil Temp. I did the install the long way, by taking out the entire dash. It was a huge pain, but it turned out nicely. I also fabricated a fabric dash piece to hold an Innovate MDX-L wideband and my HKS EVC-S boost controller in the cubby. I am very happy with the setup thus far. I will try to post some pics here soon.

Over the past two weekends I tackled a DIY Clutch/Flywheel/CSC replacement. Thanks to Joe@zspeed, I put in a new Southbend DXD Black Flywheel, Stage III 6-Puck Clutch, and HD CSC. According to Joe, this setup should be good to about ~700TQ! I wish I had taken some pictures to put up, but I was too enthralled with the install. Man was it a pain on jack stands! All I can say is thank God for air tools! The clutch feels great, albeit stiffer, and I can't wait to experience it more once it is broken in.

That's all for now! Questions/comments are welcome! :tiphat:

How are you liking the southbend dxd black flywheel. Just as quiet as oem?

Please post pics of gauges and EVC setup. My car is in the shop now and I am trying to figure out where to put the EVC since I have NAV. Also, would love more info about the cats.

I put my EVC where my seat heater buttons used to be.

Ill take a pic when I go to lunch and post.

I like it so far. I can't really comment on noise yet, because I left my exhaust off the car (I am waiting on new gaskets from Tony at F.I.) so the car is LOUD with open downpipes. I will let you know how it is when the exhaust is back on. I also went with Motul Gear 300 fluid, per Joe's recommendation, to help quiet things down.

I will definitely get some pictures up. Here is one at night (pretty worthless) that I had on my phone.

The cats were an option from Fast Intentions. They are pretty pricey, but get rid of the smell and flow well. I hope to add some exhaust cutouts in the future to bypass the cats for higher flow (although probably not necessary).

On your dyno sheet it shows 455rwhp and 375rwtq did you get another sheet or was it a misprint.

Yeah, that was correct. That was the only time I have had the car dynoed. I hope to get it back on with the new clutch and some cooler weather. I think it can do better...hopefully.

Came across your thread. Really like the gauge setup even if they were at night. Any new updates/pics?

I also don't want to necro but looking for an update. I plan on running a HKS EVC-S on my turbo setup whenever it arrives, it's been almost three months *crossing my fingers it arrives soon*.

Any issues with anything? Reviews of the HKS EVC-s has basically no reviews.

I don't think I have any new pictures to upload, but I'm happy to take some. I'll snap a few as soon as I am back in town. I've been really happy with the Depo gauges. The Innovate wideband is decent, but it usually reads a little off the OEM sensors. It is nice to have an extra level of security though. I'm happy to answer any other questions you might have.

I have had good luck with the EVC-S. It is a little tricky to adjust at first, but as long as you are careful and start very low, then work your way up in boost slowly, it's fine. If you haven't already bought an EBC, I'd take a look at the one Mr. Squeeze is running from Go Fast Bits. It is around the same price as the EVC-S, but has more features and looks easier to program. Good luck with your build! I'm happy to answer any and all questions!

As a more global update, I recently had the car retuned at CIN motorsports here in Charlotte, NC. The car runs so much smoother and pulls strong. Boost levels were not changed from my previous Dyno runs and it put down 513HP and 440TQ on the Mustang Dyno. Happy thanksgiving everyone!

Thanks for the update !

Well I attempted to take some videos this evening without too much luck (only have an iPhone 5 for a camera).

The cold start video did not turn out well at all, so I did not upload it. I did upload the following two videos to show the start up/shutdown sequence of the Depo gauges. Apologies for the crappy quality!
