Lol , this factory bolt on rice burner will embarrass you , set up any station you want ;) it's all legit ...

Rice burner passes EPA , nice
Falcon looks like every other turbo on the road , boring
240 cubes beaten by 150 cubes @ Sydney Dragway .... Priceless ;)

Might head out see what the old n/a stocker can do, then compare dyno reading on the 26th at autotech with the mph, see if its a healthy donk.
