We went to home depot to make a boost leak tester before all of this...found a HUGE tear in my tb hose (which I had replaced not long ago with a good one :huh: ) and adjusted a few things here and there.Thanks for finding my boost leak Chris :wub:

Need more info on this please. Going to do the same thing by sealing off the upper IC hose going to the TB and pumping in 25lbs of air pressure. Will this do it? What did you do to find your leaks?

I don't know. I held my own against a 99ish Cobra with my T5M with similar mods. (I just happened to have an empty tank of gas, no spare, fresh rubber)

I think the 99 Cobra had around the same HP as the 2008 Stang you speak of.

You're on stock boost and everything? Just the exhaust and stuff? mehhhh idk about that man, sounds kind of ambitious to me to pull with a cobra :huh:

I'm not saying a T5M can beat a cobra. I said at that specific time and that specific car...we draged from 0 to about 80 and he was 1/2 to 3/4 car lengths in front the whole time.

Believe me if you want to or not... I understand on paper the Cobra should pull away from my car. Did he miss a gear, or not know how to drive..who knows, I was just stating my experience.

:lol::lol::lol::lol:

better wear a helmet...25lbs of pressure will shoot your dipstick out of the tube and across your garage once you fix that leak.

5-10lbs is safer, and you'll definiately hear it if you have a leak
