Many of us here have seen the Fox Marketing Turbo IS F for many years now. Think about it, there's a reason why only a handful of IS F owners here that have a turbo IS F, and it's not because the members on this forum aren't willing to spend $15k on a turbo kit. It's because many members on this forum have a problem parting with their money, for something that really hasn't been proven.
And when you start talking about having these members post their numbers, talk about their setup, etc...THEY ALL START TO SHY AWAY because they know it runs like crap.
We had one member on the forum that has a turbo kit, but all he said was something along the lines of "if you wanna know my setup, try to catch me in the canyons". I don't think that guy has ever posted since. Never shared any info.

You talk a big game for someone that has only 60 something posts and you just bought your car for for roughly 1 month (that's based on your post made on 4/13/13)

You said exactly what I was thinking while reading these jokers' posts.

Thanks melbitoast. As always...I keep it real. I say the things that people don't want to hear. Cry me a river. Like the NRA says...Keep calm and return fire. JK...I don't think they said that, however, I'm gonna go order that t-shirt that does say that.

No need to gang up on chrisp1, just educate. A lot of new ISF owners on here look at twin turbo rear mounted ISF's and go "OMG! Unfound power!".......bad news: there has been no working tune ever on the F. That includes the hyped up HG motorsports and ProEFI threads. Let's see some dyno sheets before jumping to conclusions....as well as quarter mile times. And the dash. It's no surprise that every "tuned" ISF has a dash that looks like a christmas tree full of lights.
Fox marketing obviously has money to throw away. If their build was actually legitimate they would have posted dyno sheets and qtr mile times. Instead we get the usual "first twin turbo wide body ISF" BS all over the internet, and fake HP numbers. I'll edit my post if I actually see the dyno sheets.

I am new to the is-f and perhaps the rear mounted setup is not a good idea, but coming from the turbo world and having seen many different vehicles personally running rear mounted turbos and even compound turbo setups successfully, I figured it might have worked. for the record on the dyno the ifs made a little over 500whp i believe. no dyno sheet posted but heres the run
heres one making over 600whp
