I agree, great porting job and those are just pictures which isn't too easy to judge porting. I received them today and inspected them very closely. No sharp or dull edges, both the TB and IM was perfectly smooth.

We sadly do not have any data which I can try to get him provide them or at least try to. My buddy (Kracka) has gotten him into the C7 market and I am just showing off his work here as I think he deserves it. Great guy + great work. He is pretty known for imports, many companies while selling "ported X, Y, Z" stuff, they send them to him and he does the work. He still does do LS and LT stuff like Throttle Body, Intake Manifold, Headers, Exhaust manifolds and does great coating. Does A LOT of Turbo porting and coatings as well. Type in Socal porting on google and you can just look at their website for more info.

That should be enough to get my CA6 SS M6 into the 11s. Hopefully without DRs. And then with DRs in good air who knows. I am chasing a very fast almost stock 5.0 auto. I know the basturd will be adding a Procharger and going into the 10s. I have to surprise him first.

Before my ZL1 I was not afraid of a tune, but now with the buyback I am a supported tune guy. Once the warranty is gone the turbos are looking good. Already in the 10s without a good turbo match.

PM me a price for both.
PM Sent. I don't blame you about your hesitation and don't worry you will own that mustang soon enough haha. Tune is extremely important, you just don't go give the EVERYTHING of the vehicle to some person to get it done... Reputation, skill, well known, EXPERIENCE... Extremely important things. Instead of a turbo, I'd personally be leaning towards a roots supercharger or procharge haha. I am a bit burnt of turbos, too many problems with em, cost too much, boost issues etc. Shit happens, even to the best of em.

We installed these yesterday! Perfect start-up, perfect idle, and pulls smooth & hard on the stock tune!

Here is the first start up video after installing the ported TB and IM. Like Kracka said, no issues or anything. It was perfect, and after driving 400 miles post install... No issues what so ever.

We also did hit the dyno but I made the mistake of using Love's bottom end minimal craptastic 91 plus Mustang Dyno. So dyno numbers were 364 rwhp and 395 rwhp and since I didn't have a stock baseline, it is hard to tell what exactly the gains of the ported TB and IM were. However, I can tell you that the car just breathes so much better, pulls so much smoother and you can definitely feel the massive difference. Now, I just need an intake.. grab some take off headers so I get those ported and coated

First start up with Ported TB and IM: https://youtu.be/nU53x65nvmw

Dyno vid: https://youtu.be/0o-w-eOTvlE (actually sounds so much better in person...)

Would love to see a comparison of this work back to back w/stock. Same dyno same day, slip times.

Agreed. I will be talking with Ruben tomorrow to give him the good news about it. Maybe he can get someone to do a baseline dyno then another baseline with the ported TB at least.

I will get another baseline done soon here locally with my local gas. It is still 91 but at least will be a Top Tier 91 unlike the travel stop gas I had for this dyno.

Thanks

You can email or call him via the link Kracka posted and feel free to tell Ruben that Turk and Kracka sent you.

I have seen a lot of Dyno runs, but never one on dual spindals. Never really heard the car pull...

It's an all-wheel-drive Mustang dyno; Cobb does a lot of AWD cars like Evos, Subarus, GTR's, etc.

We didn't get any numbers, we had a couple things in the works but seemed to just not happen.
