It's supposed to be set up to run 10#s, but everyone I talk to says my stock exhaust with a simple catback SI/SO is creating the backpressure that is bumping the boost up. I've got a true dual system in the works.

Anybody that works on L/HD's can do. It is actually easy if you have all the parts, just plug and play. No mods required. Shoudl take about 8-10 hours and can be done in two step. First step are all the things you can do without pulling intake. I had a mechanic help me who had a HD of his own. All I really needed was his truck to look at. Shop manual was not a lot of help. I'm on east coast so no help with mechanic.

Hey xmoto,

I went to a guy in Torrance, shop is called Swanson Performance. They have a good reputation with the mustang community and with L's. Make sure you've got ALL the parts and shouldn't have a problem. Took 'em about 4 days to get it all buttoned down and dyno-tuned. Their prices were a bit on the steep side, I probably could have found a shop to do it cheaper, but in the end I wanted a shop with a good rep and experience.

Did you do something to help out your trans? Post some pics of your truck

If you stop by Swanson, you'll see my truck there, it's waiting to get my dual exhaust system welded in.
