We have some really cool news about the tranny, but in the meantime, been doing some of the basics. Right now we have added the 76lb injectors and our Agency Power TB/Plenum kit which features the CTT throttlebody. Next in will be our intake tray with 3inch ypipe and the intercoolers. Once the intercoolers are fitted, the turbos will go in place. More stuff coming soon

How much boost do you plan on running in this build? And what do expect to make to the wheels ?

Much like our car, we will set the high boost for 109oct only at 1.6-1.7bar and the low boost at 1.3-1.4 for 93pump. On our Mustang AWD dyno, the car makes 760awhp on high boost and about 650+ on low boost. The difference here is we are running bigger injectors and beefing up the tranny quite a bit. This customer is looking for daily driving performance, not records so a majority of the time he will be on low boost.

With the motor lowered, it is not that hard.

Yousef - 4lb difference is not that much. For this application, will be ok.

So one of our main goals was to produce an upgrade for the Tiptronic transmission that was an actual upgrade of designed products and not something put together from other parts. We decided to work with our partner to produce the new disks needed. Once each pack disk was removed, they were then CAD drawn to be cut out of steel to the necessary thickness to increase the disk quantity we wanted to use. After each disk is being cut, we will be bonding to the disk through a process a Kevlar type material. In addition to the disk upgrade, we will have no spacers to compensate for the thickness changes. The only OEM part that will be ugpraded will be the solenoid from Mercedes as well as a larger line to move fluid. Here are some sneaks underway
