Yeeaaahhh.....I don't know....130 beans.....suppose it would be alright for those that don't have a clue.
I'm currently making 220hp at the treads.....using Ford components, some aftermarket stuff, and some homemade stuff.....with an original, unopened bottom end....and it's an ED 4.0..... :)

Here's my build thread.....

They have a picture of a engine dyno. 290hp is s**t all at the flywheel. They have no dyno print outs, no website, no background info.

thats Moe race engines. so it is from a professional race engine builder.
however gezza is right, 290hp at the fly is only 213kw at the fly which is only about 150-160 at the the wheels?

LOL sounds like a waste of money I reckon, if your after 150ish RwkW your best bet would be to read through some of the guys builds and then the info is free.

+1 from me as well. I saw the ad a while back and thought the same as blokes on here, the " recipe" is on here countless times and you may as well use the money you'll save from not buying the " recipe" for go fast bits.
Also, I noticed they show zero proof or give anything away. They could just send a letter saying " buy a turbo"
