^ Yeah, he does, and it's impressive to say the least on a 2.0L (spools up earlier than my current 50 trim setup - what??). I'd bet an 8374 would absolutely kick *** on your 2.2L.

Congrats on the new dyno Geoff!
Did you pick up a new DTS/Superflow Dyno? Or a DTS Red/Green Dyno from Australia?

I am sooo happy how well everything worked out on my evo... ecstatic is an understatement. considering all the suspension/chassis and driveline work I did, the powerband is icing on the cake and compliment each other perfectly. there are 2 WIDE turns at our industrial park entrance. On early sunday morning i was practicing some low speed 2nd gear 4-wheel drifts, clutch kicking it was smooth, predictable and all 4 slicks roasting controllably. im ecstatic, its like a full size RC touring car with brushless motor .. .and the AC was blasting cold

get a 9/16" unibit (a normal drillbit will try and break your wrist) and drill thru!

Man, if some of that translates to a Flex Ecoboost, you may have a future customer in a couple of years (when my warranty expires, lol). What turbos are going on the Ecoboost kit, and how do they compare to the stockers? Please post a dyno chart of the F150 if you guys end up dynoing it.

Our turbo kit philosophy has always been that the same kit should fit the smallest EFRs all the way to the largest... These ecoboost kits are no different, if you want to go drag racing you can run a 9180, if you want to TOW we have something in store for that (i expect the powerband will make diesel guys ) no plans for the flex yet, but depending on how things go with the unveiling of our build at SEMA we might have a lot more work lined up from FoMoCo!

the evo is still kicking butt! The slicks are getting a little tired after the hot summer we had so i cant wait to start DD-ing the F150 and do a little refresh on the Ct9A!

whatcha got? ive got a bunch of hankook C91's on the side, but ive been running the 275/35/18 BFG R1's because they last longer on the street

nice! did you dyno it or notice any gains? Personally I like the stock airbox for trucks, since there is so much dirt in the engine bay

I just read through your whole thread. the whole time I've just been at a loss for words. You're build isn't one of the best I've seen but it's the most user friendly/information filled build I've ever seen. You built a sick *** daily and I might have to go ahead and copy a lot of your build. lol. I'm so stoked to see the ECOBoost at SEMA this year. My teacher has one and maybe you guys can convince him to get the kit. lol see you at SEMA!
