    Anyone running 18x10 AM fr500’s square set on an s197...

    Yes I believe I screwed up big time buying these. It was a tough situation, I really didn’t have much choice at the time(long story). I was told it has been done before by their staff but from what I see the offset is like 24mm which is a far cry from 45mm... Now I guess I’ll habe to figure out...

    Anyone running 18x10 AM fr500’s square set on an s197...

    Hi, sorry if this has been covered but I’m navigating the site from my phone and I can’t seem to find a search function or post on the subject. I have 4 18x10 American muscle fr500’s. I’d like to know if I can run them as a square set on my 07gt? Also what tire sizes may work and will I need to...

    On3 turbo kit education

    I'm ok on inspections. I have raced my old 89 fox body in the MOM series at Empire and gone to several of their test and tune nights. Unfortunately I haven't been out there in a long time so I'm not sure my car will even hit the track. It would be nice to see what times it runs before and after...

    On3 turbo kit education

    Yea, I thought it was way out of line both for the install and tuning. I've spoke to Lito and he is very reasonable and definitely in my price range. Things are coming together. Now just to finalize a place to work on the car. Hopefully my old friend comes through and let's me work in his shop.

    On3 turbo kit education

    Well I called another shop today. They said they have done a DOB supercharger before and it's quite time consuming and very tedious. They figured 25-30hrs and $3k for install. If I ins it and they tune it they want $1200-$1500 to run the car on the dyno and tune it. Sooo those prices are kinda...

    On3 turbo kit education

    I have several cars to drive besides my mustang and DOB did send me the instructions and I think I'd have no problems doing the job If I'm left alone. I have a 2yr old little guy that wants to be with his dad in the garage at all times and my wife. They both can get needy at times and I get...

    On3 turbo kit education

    J&J speed shop and Kennedy's Dyno tuning is the only places I know of. J&J said the eaton blowers are no good and he suggested the On3 turbo, but when I asked him how much for the On3 turbo kit installed he said to research it on their website. So I researched it here and on the On3 site. I...

    On3 turbo kit education

    This is good to know. I'm not looking to squeeze out every hp possible out of the setup and to push my stock engine with all stock internals but would like a tune to get some good safe hp. I'm hearing that you don't want to push anymore than 450-475hp out of the FI system or else you are...

    On3 turbo kit education

    My problem is there are only 2 shops in my area(Buffalo,NY) The one shop will only deal with what he wants to sell or tells you to pound salt and the other shop will do anything but when I asked if they have experience with a product(DOB or On3) they said the DOB setup uses Eaton blowers which...

    Getting the best bang for my buck. I have $5k what should I get done.

    Are the On3 turbo kits a good quality product or are they problematic? I just called another local speed shop and they said they don't deal with them. They said the turbo kits he installs and sells are more expensive than a supercharger. Then he told me if a turbo kit is that cheap it can't be...

    Getting the best bang for my buck. I have $5k what should I get done.

    I started another thread inquiring about on3 turbo kits. The local speed shop told me to look into them. They seem cheaper and I wonder about quality. I believe they also don't include everything you need for install and to have a functioning car after. I went onto On3's site nd the turbo kit...

    Getting the best bang for my buck. I have $5k what should I get done.

    I have a stock engine with 6000 miles on it and stock internals. I've read somewhere that stock internals can only handle 450-475hp. The car will be mostly used for driving, not racing. I run down the thruway to work for about 30mi and I'd run the car to cruise nights and shows, but it would...

    On3 turbo kit education

    Hi Guys, I started a thread about how to get the most hp out of $5k and basically was told to get a used or new supercharger and install it on my own. I have contacted department of boost and I'm waiting on a reply from them. I have also been speaking to a member about a used supercharger...

    Getting the best bang for my buck. I have $5k what should I get done.

    I have emailed Department of boost to see what they recommend for my budget. Personally I feel a lot better buying new. I really wish I had money for cams. That would totally make this awesome for me. I gotta have that sound!

    Getting the best bang for my buck. I have $5k what should I get done.

    I'm not worried so much about installing the system as I am about buying it used and hoping everything is there and everything isn't worn out. I'd like new, but heard new with tuning is about $8k locally which I don't have. I'm not looking to make big hp like 600-700hp, but 450-500 at the rear...

    Getting the best bang for my buck. I have $5k what should I get done.

    Thanks guys, I know nothing about superchargers or turbos and that's what worries me about buying used or installing a system on my own is I have no idea if I have every part, if it's together right, etc... I really like the sound of cams, but I'm even worried to do that myself. My car has very...
