Epl

I have worked with Tony at epl previously for a basic flash and he took great care of me, I recently decided to go the k16/16g route so contacted Tony, he gave me an excellent price, he gave me a big discount on the new tune because i had previously purchased a flash from him so that was really nice

I drove the 2 1/2 hours to Tony today to pick up my car, he took me out in it to show me how it rides and explain various things...holy crap, i couldnt stop giggling, the power is amazing

the drive home was a real pleasure, i didnt get to open it up much due to traffic and the fact that there were cops everywhere but everything is better, lag is greatly reduced, power is so much more intense yet smoother

it made 475 awhp and 517 lbs tq on the dyno (mustang) which i am incredibly happy about, next step will be injectors and intercoolers

great work Tony, thank you very much, i'm sure i'll be touch soon for more upgrades

Looking at the K16/16G in the future. What type of clutch are you using with the new setup?

I'm confused...are they K16/16g or are they K16 BILLET? 16g's have mitsubishi compressors, the BILLETS (AMS product) have nothing to do with 16g...


Anyway, congrats, I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun with 475 horses!!!!

Congrats...I'm REALLY considering pulling the trigger on the k16/16g upgrade as well, and would like to know whether you went with the AMS k16 billet kit or a true 16/16g setup. I notice earlier today that it does not appear that EPL is offering the k16/16g package it used to offer.

P.s. (Our cars are virtual clones: artic silver, dv's, epl tune, pss9's (not installed yet), speedtech exhaust).

i apologise, i'm not as technical as lot of people on this site, i'll have to refer to Tony for specifics, i initially approached Tony for a k16/16g upgrade and he mentioned they had a billet upgrade so i went with that option

scottslaw - you have excellent taste

when you get the pss9's installed make sure you read this and give your installer the relevant info http://forums.rennlist.com/rennforum...end-noise.html
