Such a strong motor. 658 RWHP before a SC upgrade. That's a good day

[@nathant2414]

Would you ever consider creating a roots-style VMP blower for the 3.7’s? Would be insane

[@godzillagarage7.3]

The sound is intoxicating!!!

[@MRALL4FUN]

Andrew is gonna make some serious power now!!

[@JD_JoyrideTV]

I need to make a trip back down.

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

Yas!

[@Lethal_Venom]

I think Andrew is chasing the numbers on your GT500 lol

[@MRALL4FUN]

Yeah JD you definitely need the new saucy setup on your ride man would be awesome!!

[@chrism.728]

@@MRALL4FUN Not if he can't put the power to the ground effectively on his current setup.

Bro, no offense but what you need is seat time.

I wish I made enough money to enjoy this amount of happiness and freedom. I told my wife that when she's finished with nursing school, she owes me some truck parts.

[@saleen367]

Sweet... my PP2 needs a VMP mod. :)

[@MrLightning54]

That boost curve really starts climbing towards the end of that pull! I'm used to seeing PD stuff tapering off towards the top of the rpm range. Times like this makes me wish I would've maybe kept my 04 Cobra, swapped to this blower, and swapped an auto into it.

[@trevormyers3114]

Terminators are dope

[@Twobarpsi]

Omg amazing!

After watching Justin working on all these great Fords I’m about to coyote swap my 87’ Buick Grand National !!!!

Twin Turbo that Coyote and you'll wish you swapped sooner!

[@PMPerformance]

I like how you guys actually tell the fuel, boost and timing levels to keep it comparative unilke most. awesome gains!

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

Thanks!

[@pierstonsalinas940]

Got on this video not even knowing it was Andrew 🤯😂

[@02Lightning]

I can see Andrew in the future totaling the car or blowing the engine

[@jayyoung5423]

Yeah but will the bottom end sustain?

[@coyotekelly7143]

Sweet guys! Sorry I haven't been commenting on the shows! I have been super busy at work.

What octane is the fuel with the boostane?

[@camyota]

Here I am sitting here in my bone stock 14 gt watching VMP videos and dreaming of the day I get to make that call to Justin and the crew to hook me up!

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

Hey Cody! Thank you for checking out our video content. We appreciate you! Don't hesitate to let us know if you have any questions in the mean time and we look forward to you joining the VMP family in the future!

[@camyota]

Love the videos! And I'll definitely be in touch when the time comes!

[@ctapmgriley]

Haircut day at VMP.

[@MikeWolf-427]

A terrible silly question, but any possibility of a polished version of the 3R?

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

You can always have a local polish shop do it up

[@cobramanphil]

Wow..plenty of power. I'd invest in re-doing the motor first before trying to get those numbers (like a better crankshaft, rods, pistons, cams). Until then you will have to keep your rpm down..

[@utahcountypicazospage5412]

Now he can hang with that Procharged green camaro that gapped him well maybe he might need that 24 pulley cuz that car was fast

[@MarkJCarruthers]

Your thoughts on Boostane in every tank?

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

Yes to boostane in every tank.

[@gopherchucksgamingnstuff2263]

[@concretegt1523]

Wow that poor old unwanted 2.3 TVS would fit nicely on my 2009 GT500 for us "Old Men" Shelby owners that are satisfied with a lowly 675-690WHP Shelby.....any chance it's for sale as a trade in?

[@flubdreload2818]

How come you guys don’t make anything for 2005-2010 Mustang GTs?

[@ItzDatBoiiPepe]

U guys deserve a blower too but after us terminator guys get the new gen3r

[@mscream2864]

I would've loved to see the power the car would've made with the "same" boostane with the trinity blower. No doubt that the VMP blower probably makes more, but HOW MUCH MORE????? Hard to do a comparison video when the variables are different. 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

We later found out the trinity had some issues.

[@mscream2864]

@@VMPPerformanceTV issues that have been resolved?????

[@reeveryan1]

I feel I’ve been dooped again...the trinity was not on boostane nor did it have 20* of timing. I appreciate VMP’s innovation but sure would have been nice to see a fair comparison. Regardless amazing job!

[@BoostedLNF]

They are set smoothing to 0 instead of 5 so the peak number would look higher. Smoothing should be set to 5 to make it easier to compare to everyone else.

[@coyotekelly7143]

Well they put boostane for basically safety more than likely. But if you think a 2.3 Trinity is even close to a gen 3r then you should think again.

[@VMPPerformanceTV]

The gen3r made around 740-750rwhp with the 93 timing curve

[@charliesperbeck5669]

Harbor Freight power tools?!?!?! Say it ain't so Justin!

[@TonyM-zi9rq]

I have one of those Hercules cordless impacts and you cant beat it for $99. I rebuilt my deck (all new floor boards and rails) and didnt have to charge it...

[@charliesperbeck5669]

@@VMPPerformanceTV I'm mostly kidding. I've owned DeWalt when I was on jobsites, but since I've moved on from that profession, and I'm never too far from a charger, I've currently own a couple HF battery tools. Also the Bauer Battery Ratchet is very interesting as an alternative to my 80 Gallon 2 stage compressor and air ratchet. Just don't watch any +AvE BOLTR reviews, he'll tell you they don't have the skookum to get the job done ;-)

[@mach183]

Can easily get 850 Rwhp with a stock Trinity built motor ...... I don’t see the point in spending 4500$ to go from 2.3 to 2.6 ..: I’m happy with a pulley and bolt ons and a built motor more then enough for the street ...: If I spend that type of money back to kenne Bell we go Happy with a vmp performance package as well ..

[@itsjay7237]

Joseph Webb efficiencies mostly bc you can make 850 on stock trinity but it’s going to be maxed out or close when 800 on the gen 3r is so light load for that blower

[@chrism.728]

Yeah, for 90% of people the 2.3L would be enough. But if he has plans to push it into the 4 digit RWHP range comfortably with a stronger rotating assembly, the Gen 3R is definitely the way to go.

[@chrism.728]

@Bailey Hatfield Then you're just spending extra money on looks and name, not actually taking advantage of the full potential of the blower's improvements over lesser models.

[@DrtyBrd_5.0]

Shit I’ll take that trinity blower!!!! Sell it!! Lol

[@psulse]

I am on the fence here. Do I toss 10+k into my 11 gt for gen3, injectors, headers... Or go Dare I say Porsche.

About 800rwhp is the max we recommend with e85 or boostane
