    Hells yeah! Dude--were you at Denton on Sunday? I saw a Fox body JUST like yours there.

    Yeah, I really like Fox Body cars--especially those LX coupes. And if I had one, I would do an LQ9/T-56 just like you...HAHAHA, you are living my dream.

    Projoect looks good! What other bolt-ons you doing to compliment the turbo? I am guessing it is a T-70? Any head work? Cam? etc?

    Thanks for the compliments guys! As far as supporting mods pretty much just a ls6 cam and ls6 valve springs and hardened push rods.. Im not real concerned on the power it makes I just want a car that runs and drives stock and moves out when I want it to. Also the gas mileage will be nice! You guys have any idea what she might put down! Prob run about 10 lbs through the 70mm with 60lb injectors.

    about 2/3 more HP than the base engine puts out.

    I dont think gear ratio and tire size adds HP ;-P But it will be a t56.

    Gear ratio affects readings on the rear wheel dyno. A 3.42 gear will show more HP on the ground than a 4.56 gear will. I would guess you're looking at about 530 HP to the ground with a proper tune and 10 PSI. On motor you're probably going to see 320 if setup and tuned minus the turbo.

    Sweet that sounds awsome. I made 550 whp with about 15 lbs in the 302. If I make around 530 to 550 I'd be happy with that.. I had a pretty quick spool with the 5.0 .. full boost right around 2900. I cant wait to see what the 6.0 does!

    Hey do you have an idea about how much power guys are putting down with these stock bottom ends "safely". I dont want to push it to much, I would like it to be "reliable" unlike the 5.0 was.
