Yikes!
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

As Mike pointed out to me... if the calcu;lsator is for CHP, then add 20% and gett these numbers for the quarter:
computed from your vehicle weight of 4250 pounds and HP of 740 is 10.43 seconds and MPH of 129.56 MPH.

So, his original motor blew up?  That's two motors with upgraded turbos/meth tuned by LMS that have gone recently (A6).  Ouch.  Do we have details on what went wrong with both?

SHodded posted the teaser video a few posts above.  Jeff, Mike's photographer, says the other motor blew in the beginning of the video.  The video has in the last hour been removed from Youtube..

Hi yes - I did indeed remove it earlier since I notice grammatical errors late last night/early morning when I was still putting them together via VideoPad Editor. However given I have been up for nearly 20 hours straight, I was exhausted and opted to fix the issues in the morning, which is why this morning I took it down and had to re-edit the primary file.

The video hasn't changed, just fixed the spelling mistakes and the lighting issue (seemed a bit dark at least on my computer)..

Watched the vid... don't see the blown engine... Maybe bpd will chime in.... I thought he drove the car to LMS like steve says.  Jeff says the engine in Mike's car was never blown.

Jeff's post on this is here: http://www.ecoboostperformanceforum.com/index.php/topic,2162.msg53280.html#msg53280

The rumor mill should stop turning.

This is exactly why I abandoned any ideas of picking up A6's turbos, because I'm not interested in building a motor. Meth will be the final frontier for me.
Well, you might go with TWO tanks of methanol as it seems in bpd's current setup :D

Strange, I go weeks without ever seeing another SHO in these parts. On the way to the track on Friday I see 3? One was an exact copy if mine lol. Although it was stock. I forgot how high they ride in the stock springs.
