would it be a entire kit?

ME typing to fast in a hurry
175-180 on average.
Why? Look what the car can do with the power. Its by no means a slouch. TOO many people magazine race by the #s published.

Just under 13.5 for me. My problem is traction/wheel hop. Even with Z rated 235/40s i cant use first at any thing more than half throttle or its violent.
Im hoping my new shocks will give me a few 10ths. That and a better motor mount im working on. Once the 3.5 goes in i want 13flat or better.

Anyway, there's a lot of variables, but not with the results.

Keep me posted on the motor mounts . . . still hoping that a real solution comes about. Not that poor attempt we got from Innovative Mounts.
That said, the 3rd design does have promise . . as a design that is. I've had it in the front now for about 6 months and it's still holding up. The others lasted several weeks at best. I ended up putting an OEM in the rear, and with the front and side (IM) mounts the wheel hop is still under control. Like you I used to wheel hop like a son-of-bitch, so that part is much better.

here is the orginal post from my mechanic who is producing this
Well, this project has been sitting on my shelf for a good year now and I am tired of it sitting so here it goes. I will be taking a Eaton M90 blower unit commonly found on E-Bay and other places from the 89-95 Thunderbird/Cougar SC editions and adapting it to work with first the 7th gen AV6 and 3rd gen TL, then the 6th gen AV6 and 2nd gen TL/CL. If sucessful this will be kitted and probably a GB issued, but first I will complete and prove the design (unlike someone else). Rebuilt M90 can be gotten from multiple sources for $600-$800, used they can be found on E-Bay for $100-$200, the one I am using for moch-up came off EBay for $125 and although tired was in working order. M90 full rebuild kits (bearings, seals, coupler, oil) can also be found for $120ish and if new rotors are needed I have seen them for $300-$400. The end goal is to have a complete system including a rebuilt M90 for $2500 or less, minus management, tuning and fuel system upgrades. For my development I plan on using a FIC for tuning and our stock injectors should hold the 6 PSI standard boost and RDX injectors for 8-10PSI HB. I plan on making the charge air system both for a FMIC/Hope/Other Liquid setup as well as the std direct connection.
Another reason for the M90 is it is much more volumetrically efficent compared to the M62 that Comptech uses. What this means is that it will run cooler and be able to provide high boost without over reving the blower. Also the M90 can provide the airflow needed to power the J35/J36 franken-engines efficently that I have been making. There is a little more parasitic loss with the M90 (about 1.5%) and it is a bigger physical unit, but I believe the benifits outway these factors.
So, let's get to it, here are some pics of the blower, I disassembled the nose assembly about a year ago to start figuring out the extension, materials for the nose extension should be here this afternoon, so in the mean time I will be working on the mounting of the blower unit.

Don't let him fool you lol, Paul from V 6 P should be your hero 
The guy is a J-series genius. Other than the J35-S, he's done all the first J-series mix-ups for J33's, 36's, 37's etc. He's currently working on that super charger and a turbo ~750whp J38 Accord.

^--paul can do just about anything if you're willing to pay. I spend half my time on the V 6 P forums reading his builds just because of the pioneering work he has done. Check it out, you'll learn a lot.
Oh yeah almost forgot...good to see more dynographs popping up

As for the turbo...might the one from the old turbo J36 that blew up on the dyno, the one hes redoing as a J38. Either way...turbo-J = balls.
