Nice 07 3V

[Wolfpack Speed]

We are tuning before it goes to WOW car show this weekend. Just a break in tune till the fully built motor gets some miles on it. Made great power for an under boosted large displacement blower! This car is going to make some serious power when we increase the boost and tune it on the sauce:yes:

[89stang]

Wow!!!

[Black Vert]

Ha I know this car, that guy has way too much money in this car. Well over a $100k im sure.

[PaxtonShelby]

I think this car was for sale over the summer - for around $55k ( don't quote me on that - my memory isn't as good as it used to be ). Gorgeous car. Lots of mods and tons of powdercoating underneath? Last I heard he was planning to replace it with a SuperSnake??

[412mustangz]

that thing is super nice!!

Ya Ron, it was/is For Sale. It is a nice car but as someone stated above he has a lot of $$ in it. He does want or bought a GT 500. I think the guy works for Eaton.

[Black Vert]

Yea he has deep pockets, he already bought a Black Shelby too.

Yep that is Dave's car. He has lots of moooolllaaa. LOL

He also has a very understanding wife. :rotflol:

Hit the nail on the head. Used to always see this car or his new black GT500 on nice days while I worked there. He was in a different department so I never got to meet him, though.

[89stang]

Does it have dual nitrous botles in the trunk? If so I seen it at a car show and wow he has a ton into it!! Whats he want for it??

[biminiLX]

What's in the built 3V Mike?
Badd@ss car!

That would be the one, he decided to keep it, just sunk another 45Gs into the motor. :ohno: Heard he's going for a 1000hp with nawz:rofl:

Nice car, but how the hell do you sink $45k into a 3v motor?

[Mitternacht]

Nice car, but how the hell do you sink $45k into a 3v motor?

:dunno: I'd struggle to put $15K into mine if I had the funds to.

[frcefed]

I see him on university blvd in moon a lot car sounds amazinggg

[u1arunit]

I see him on university blvd in moon a lot car sounds amazinggg

Car was built in Moon by Auto Illusions. They do some damn nice work with regards to custom builds. :goodidea:

[thedak]

Car looks well done but I'm unimpressed with those #s...

[SAC81]

Based on that Frisby sized pulley (what is that, 3.8-4"?), I'm guessing it's only making 5-6 PSI right now. Once they up the boost, numbers should increase accordingly.

I'm with the others in wondering how you can spend $45K on a 3V engine though.

[biminiLX]

You don't, you just let people think you do :)
Whose going to have the biggest dyno sheet at WOW ;)

[Black Vert]

Nice car, but how the hell do you sink $45k into a 3v motor?
:dunno: Got me? $20k for motor and blower, $5k for the bling and $20k labor :dunno:

[Wolfpack Speed]

The car was built by Auto Illusions. This is the first time that I have worked with them, so I don't know much about them or what they do. From what I can tell though, they did a very nice job on the car!

There is however a mechanical issue and is no doubt why the car did not make more power. The car also has a KB Mammoth with a 4" pulley that is dragging the motor down! Average boost throughout the entire pull was only 8-9 lbs, not nearly enough for a KB 2.8 Mammoth!

Once the mechanical issues are fixed and the car is pullied accordingly, definitely capable of 700+ RWHP....

[yeahloh95]

i just saw the car at the show it looked great

[Wolfpack Speed]

They fixed some issues and brought the car back for some more tuning. Traded the 4" pulley for a 3.5"....

[gmkillr]

Damn nice!

[u1arunit]

How much boost are they planning on running once it's all said and done Mike? I thought their original plan was to have a 7-800 RWHP car?

[Wolfpack Speed]

How much boost are they planning on running once it's all said and done Mike? I thought their original plan was to have a 7-800 RWHP car?

They want the car to make somewhere in the range you suggested. It would be easy with race gas but they want to stay pump. We are going to put on a 3" pulley and do a Torco tune when it comes back, that should put it around the 700 mark. I wont spray it unless it is on race gas, we will see what they want to do about that when the time comes...

[RMB427R]

700HP, nitrous, and race gas....damn!!

I got to see and hear your car down at Mike's when he was tuning it. Very nice sounding car! Mike blipped the throttle at one point and it scared the piss out of me!

[Black Magic]

The Car (Roush) is Pretty amazing as long as teh streets are dry. Auto Illusions ( Rich Marstof) Is a fantastic Guy and great car builder -- you just have to wait forever as they cannot find good help to do the everyday work like brakes and car starters . It seems crazy to wait when spending this kind of cash but that appears to be their system. If their work was not such high quality i would have given up a year ago... and the fact that they are good people.

I have also entrusted a brand new 2011 SHelby cobra to them which i am hoping to have by the end of March. same 1000Hp build. This one will have the 3.6L Kenne Bell Mamouth blower.

Looking foward to attending one of the groups events this year. Dave

[2002LXSport]

Yeah Rich is a really good guy. I used to work for him a bit about 6 or 7 years ago doing remote starters. I doubt he would remember me though....

[u1arunit]

Good to see that you have joined the forum Dave. You are in the right place to talk shop here on SCS. :goodidea:

[PaxtonShelby]

Hey Dave - welcome to SCS. My buddy Jason ( '65 GT350 and other really nice Mustangs ) told me about your car last year and when I saw it at the Moon Park show I could see how right he was when he said your car is amazing.

My neighbor, Steve Henderson, also works at Eaton in the Cherrington complex. Any chance you know him? He drives a red Mini Cooper S. We live less than a mile from there. I grew up golfing at the old Montour Heights Country Club where your offices were built. I think your building sits where holes 4, 5, 6, and 7 used to be. :D

Are you going to take it to the track to see if it runs the number or just show it ? I got dibs on the first race against your car:pepper:. I only have 500hp though :rolleyes:

[Black Magic]

Not sure what you mean by " Just Posting teh #'s" because these are coming from a DYNO. I would have not intention of giving you Dibs on the car . The Roush will be run at the track but for fun only -- at age 57 i have nothing to prove to anyone . Thanks for the challenge though it reminded me of when i was 16 . :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

Thanks For the message and compliments -- i am kinda new to this fast car game so i guess i have a lot to learn. I think i finally figured out how to achieve a balance between having HP /performance and Style. Not a cheap pastime.
I think i have talked with Jason about every friday night last year at the Wexford cruise.- hope to meet you sometime at one of teh cruises.
I know steve well from work -- he is a great guy and very smart.
Have a good one -- lets pray fopr some weather. Dave

[Wolfpack Speed]

Mike, When is Lund coming for a tuner day ? I woudl liek to bring in both cars and schedule time to get the rioush final tune and the new Shelby start up tune. Thanks Dave

Dave,

Jon doesn't come to the shop anymore, we do everything remotely as there is no tuning difference between the two. That's not to say that he won't be out again but he is not scheduled at this time and hasn't been out for at least a year. If you would like to make a appointment for tuning, give me a ring at the shop next week!

[Black Magic]

Mike , Ok . I need to pu8sh Rich for completion as the show season is starting in a couple of weeks. Dave

[Wolfpack Speed]

Mike , Ok . I need to pu8sh Rich for completion as the show season is starting in a couple of weeks. DaveSounds good Dave!

[Wolfpack Speed]

Mike, I have about 400 miles on my 07 . Would like to bring it in for final tune. I have the small pully that Rich or you can install. We plan to change the break-in oil for some Royal Purple . Rich mentioned that John Lund was coming out to tune your car . Is there any way we could do the two mustangs at the same time . Rich is supposed to have the Shelby done in the next week or so . Because there are so many mods to the 07 it would be better if John was here to drive the car and see how it acts . The car is running so rich that it gets about 5 miles to the gallon and still idles very high on start-up. AFter a minute or so it goes to 850 rpms. It is show time so i want the car running correct . I also plan to run it with the new bogart wheels and drag radials. Thanks for your help with this . This week is the last week i will be in town for over a month. Thanks , Dave 412-901-9720

Nice speaking with you Dave, will be in touch!

Thanks!

Mike

[Black Magic]

Mike , I gues you have been very busy . I could bring the car in next wed. If you have the space. Thanks , Dave

Dave,

I just called you but your voicemail box is full so I couldn't leave you a message. Give me a ring at the shop when you get a chance.

Thanks!

Mike

Little more boost...

[Cam99]

nice numbers

[u1arunit]

Looking good Mike and Dave! :goodidea:

[Black Magic]

thank You. drove it today and it was crazy Fast . ..

[Wolfpack Speed]

Few pics for Tall Man!

[CollinsPC]

Dave,

Great looking and sounding car, Mike was pampering it for the return when I was there today. I don"t think there was a spec of dust when he was done!

[PaxtonShelby]

Black/silver/chrome...hard to find a better combo than that!! :goodidea:

[CollinsPC]

Dave,

Nice to see you at Starlite tonight. Car looks fantastic!

[PaxtonShelby]

Also saw the car at Starlite tonight - holy cow is it gorgeous!! :awsome:

[Black Magic]

Thanks Brother = good seeing you as well. Dave

[Black Magic]

Thank You . Got there very late -- what a crowd !!!! We should think about getting a group together next week and saving some spaces . Great group of Mustang fans should stick together-- would be nice to meet more folks -- swap HP lies. Dave

[PaxtonShelby]

From what my friends who go to this cruise very often say, you can reserve a few spots in the TOP LOT until 6pm. They like to to park along the main aisle - that way you can stay late and watch all the cars leave the lot driving right in front of you. To get a bunch of adjacent spots, you probably have to arrive around 4:00 or 4:30 at the latest.

[Black Magic]

Ok , Can You let folks know ? i will save as many spaces as possible this coming fririday . I will get there early --no later than 4PM. Dave
