Abbey,
The SCharger was/is planned for a 5.4L 32valver soon to be (I hope) project Shark as I think that engine will breath alot better. Its not that there wouldn't be a major jump in HP to the 2 valver. It's because 1.) Pattycakes, my 82' is a georgeous daily driver - my Ford Truck wimpers every day when I walk on by - I will do a modified RMB with the much touted Super Traps and that's about it.
2.) I really haven't seen a SCharger Package
for the two valver, there are no chips, so it would probably be mega hours of developing tuning spec's. and tables to run under different weather/altitude/humidity conditions i.e., way to much aggravation for a street machine. Hence, the 32 valve project. How does yours run? Any drivetrain
problems. I mean, really, You haven't twisted your torque tube off or anything have you? How does the car react to low speed
(20mph) to mid-range (50/70mph) kickdowns?
My personal preference is not in the burn-out area of street racing, but in the developement of rapid tractable horsepower and indicated road speed.
How is your Auto handling the new found torque and HP? Clunky shift's or any other troubles? Has the chassis developed a pull to either side under load or shifting?
Any other mods? I, breathlessly, await enlightenment/wisdom from your end.
Thanks in advance.
Keep em' rolling, later

John,
I really have alot of those same questions.... My engine is still being built and will be going back in the car in approx 6 weeks. I know stock fuel managment chips can be used on the 32v motors but the 2v issue would be a f-a-s-t question. A few of the other guys who have purchased from them have their cars running and have some of their responses on the web sight. They are legitimate testimonies because I got them when they were sent out by the guys who wrote them. Both Mark's at fast are very familiar with 928's and would have some answers. I will post things as they develop for my car.
