Finally got my s/c kit on the silver '04 (a.k.a :mad2: THE PROBLEM CHILD:mad2: ). Yeah it had a few problems and i guarantee Dennis will never forget my car but in the end everything turned out fine and i drove away from Dennis's shop a satisfied customer. I'd like to thank you Dennis, Steve, Edwin, Jackie, Tigger and...well i forgot the cats name but hey you guys are great, you will always have me as a customer (as long as i keep hiding receipts from the wife:) ) even after i move to south carolina here in a few days. The car runs great, got everything i expected and more when i throw it to the floor:banana: . Thanks Dennis

The cat's name is Numb Nuts. Don't know why:dunno: Congrats on the install. Be safe. the other Dennis:D
What are receipts? They only get you in trouble and remember not to use the CC or write a check as they leave a bad trail. Congrats on the SC and enjoy. You were in good hands with Dennis and his crew!

Let me explain to the members here what we go through, I rely on out side sources as any vendor here on this site does, no matter who you are, I have had issues with the pipes on my air to air kit meeting my quality, I buy my S/C kits from a separate company, I have to wait on them. Each kit is custom made per customer request, I do not have the financial means to stock several S/C kits for a car that is out of production and that was never made, it was custom designed for this car by my company. Yes my turnaround is longer as compared to a Vortech kit made for a 05 GT Mustang you are looking at SIX WEEKS minimum, the air to air heat exchanger is the most efficient out there, and we have a new source on these this will speed my kits up a bunch. In this case this car only made 350 RWHP and only 6 PSI boost it drove me nuts, I first thought the belt was slipping, so we changed this, then we put the car back on the dyno, same results 6 PSI boost the thumb of rule is you gain a average 15 RWHP per pound of boost, so WTFO, this car is way off, it has 65K on the clock,so I say to my self what have I done that is different than the 25 kits previous, the first thought is the after cooler, since we changed the S belt, so I took my cooler off my car installed on this car put it back on the dyno same result, so at this point I felt sure it was the S/C I changed it and sure enough it made 9 PSI and 400RWHP, the S/C had a E trim impeller stamped as a S Trim V2, so it has delayed 3 other S/C kits I have for people here as well as a CV owner, but I have resolved the issue made my customer here happy, and I do the best I can, I am not perfect never said I was, but I really try to make every one happy and 98% of the time I do that. Thank you Ronnie for choosing us.

Thanks for the explanation, Dennis. That must have driven you crazy trying to figure out.

There's allways some bumps in the road, it's how there handled that counts. I am in the middle of a Vortech air-air install on my 97 CV. I ordered the stuff from Dennis and I am having Joe from Mustang Magic do the install, should be in in the next couple weeks. Dennis is a good guy and very knowledgeable.

Any updates on the air to air kits? How are they doing compared to the non IC kits?
