That's right, 3 kills in 2 days. I LOVE MY DSM!!! Here's the kill list:

Late model Ford F150
2000 Ford Mustang V6
1989 Ford Mustang V8 5.0

The truck was nothing but a joke. Some redneck trying to keep me from passing him so that I could turn into my road. He had a peppy truck as far as trucks go, but it was nothing that even warranted a downshift from me.

I killed the two mustangs at the same time. I got onto I-75 just south of the Tenn. border and found two mustangs playing with each other. I fell right in behind the 5.0 and everytime he would go, I would go. I could tell right away that he had nothing for me. The V6 was quickly dispatched and left with his tail between his legs. That left me and Mr. 5.0. He pulled into the lane next to me and we waited til we were both going the same speed and there wasn't anyone in front of us for a long stretch and we opened up. We took off running 100 with me in 4th gear making the turbo sing. I had 5 car lengths on him in under 10 seconds and when I saw the tach at 6000 rpms I shifted into 5th gear and noted the 20+ car lengths I had on him. I didn't need to wait to reach redline because I was already running 130 and he was NO threat. As he finally caught me and passed me, I made it a point to pat the dash and tell my sweet little DSM what a good little girl she had been.

Nice kill on the 5.0!
The other 2...well I would consider those more like highway gnats...you swat them once and they don't come back.

How do you like the 16G Killer? What RPM does it start to spool?

The 16G Killer starts spooling at about 2500 and is on full boost at 3200rpms. That's why my dyno report says max torque at 3200. :D

I'm just running stock boost dur to no upgraded fuel parts. With those, the turbo would easily handle 20psi and would make it there by 3200rpms. Boy, what a rush when that baby hits full boost!
