Ahhh SpiderX are you the official 62 spoksperson... lol
How much is this thing gona cost ! ballpark?
How much WHP on average will it deliver?

and

How about taking a video of this thing in action.
A behind the wheel test drive so those of us can see and hear
this 62 in action for once and for all. Any pocket camera will do.

The horsepower seems fine but what about the torque, thats what I care about. If my torque was about 200whp I would be happy with my current whp.

Oh, so you have 224 and 190tq with just the head cam and tune. So what are you gueesing you will get with the M62 added to what you already got. Maybe 260whp and 210wtq? I'm just wondering because I have a very similar set up as you.

let me clarify...... my numbers have not been posted.... my tq number was in the 150s befor the 62 (sad, I know)

the 224 whp car is the M7 car that the kit will be put on this week... I do not know the tq number..... have no idea what power to expect...

the last car was stock and went from 150ish whp to 192..... stock.....

Any werd from M7 about what they think of their car with it installed?

Any idea of pricing?

Bob, what were your final HP again? I know your torque was around 190 right?

Thanks

Just wanted everyone to know that the M62 kit is installed, and the first test runs went of without a large hitch of any kind. Johnny's car was very fast and powerfull even before the M62, after the install his reaction was...

We will have dyno numbers and plots by tomorrow.
