That depends on how much power you are trying to make.
In it's current form, the kit produces the amount of power Tim set out to offer with his kits. It has been proven by more than a couple of people there is a potential for more power. There is a right way to achieve this and a wrong way. I hope it's clear to everyone which route you took.

You bring up Todd's motor, his is the correct way.

Where are your dyno sheets or drag slips showing how much faster your car is than every other Murf powered car?

Did you ever answer my question about the air temp sensor you are using? Assuming your gauge is accurate, 140+ intake air temps is nothing to brag about. At 30psi Todd's intake air temp is usually within 10 degrees over ambient.

Are you still using the FMU? All of these changes to the stock kit without any shark tuning?

I really hope you do not grenade the motor in that car.

Ah hah! So YOUR'E the Brian that Andrew was talking about. I didn't put two and two together. Congrats on the SC'er. Your car was really nice looking before and now it's going to have the power to match its looks.

And I think that was before the A/A intercooler sprayer.

Erik, you are no longer playing nice, so chew on this. I have forgotton more about this stuff not to mention, fab and buildwork , Than most here will ever learn, you included. I just spent the day with Ara Aslenian who happens to be an advisor of ours as well as his team. Google him. He is a NHRA world champion . Retired last year to the relief of all his competition. This for those who don't know NHRA is about as far as you can go in straight line racing. He is working with us on a Motec application for us as well as other cool ideas. He has no love for the 928, but he respects me and my team enough to want to help. This Erik is world-class, top-o'-the- heap all BS aside the best in the business. So now you know and so does everyone here how we roll. So you should understand that the Wisconsin boys are very smart, but there is a food chain. BTW, Ara has checked our applications and he is very enthusiastic with our progress. The final step is the Motec his guy Kevin (world renowned tuner) is building for my car. My goal is not to step on Tim, I am not interested in the 928 market for boost. In fact very little of the original kit is even still installed. It is great for the claimed performance and Tim is an excellent designer and human being. I have a goal and thats to test , build, and test again till I have the highest street HP 928 in existence. Google Ara, then tell me once again what your opinion of my network of people and personal team is as far as grenading my engine. And you should know that in your world there is a lot of good things happening, but don't apply it to the world of boost in general as it is very different. I bet there is a guy in Wisconsin that understands what I am talking about. Please chill out, and stick to what you know and then try and learn more before you criticize.
Kevin

There is a fella in the UK that is working towards a 1000hp 928. Are you planning on beating him too?

I'm just curious, how much of all this work are you actually doing youself, with your hands?

All of it brother, all of it. We are also twinning a 3.2 that is going into my 959 build. We are also building a twinned small block for a customer, body and paint on two 911's and Gary Knox's sweet (one of the best if not the GTS) maybe coming this summer for some custom work and the list goes on....what are you up to?
