Winter time is the best time to build...!

Great results -- these FP Turbos are pretty darn impressive!

yeah I should have clarified the fuel part, I just plan to do standard bolt-ons on 93 octane. So I cant possibly see why you'd need built motor. Not looking to push the black to it's very limit (which I am sure is high)

well.... 390 wtq is close to that boom boom range. If we pushed to 28psi and more aggressive timing, we'd be way too high on tq and a rod would go flying at some point. I'm going to build the motor at some point, even for just 93. Maybe 100 at the track, who knows.

450 on a mustang at 26psi is really good stuff. You can probably run it on the stock block for a long time without any problems.

I have an fp black and don't have the time to get my motor built for a couple months. Would it be ok to run it on the stock block for a while? Or is this very risky?

i'm still on the stock block, though I've only put on maybe 2k miles, half at the track. I am also dropping it off at cobb for the build in a few weeks....

If you know you're going to build soon, its a waste of $ to pay labor for a turbo swap now, when they'll do it free when they pull your motor.
