if you have a boosted 2.5L or 3L contour/cougar, post it up here!

dyno numbers/ unique parts/ etc are cool to add too! i kinda wanna know who's got what and then see if i can do something a tiny bit different for fun
 
Mine is....

2.5 stock motor w/70k miles, stock headers w/precats, stock exhaust after turbo kit (no main cat), 160 deg thermostat, spec stg II clutch, 24lb injectors, nautilus intercooled kit, 57mm Precision w/.63 a/r, type-S BOV and 38mm WG dump to atmosphere, turbo smart MBC, all hot piping wrapped, running base kit tune using SCT Xcal2, and AEM wideband.

at 8 psi it put down around 260hp/240tq, can't exactly remember.

Most of the info is in my sig.,

04 Taurus 3L, Ported Heads (just intake and exhaust ports), Garrett GT3076R Duel Ball Bearing Turbo .82 A/R, ADC Turbo Plumbing, TiAL 38mm wastegate routed back into exhaust, HKS SSQV BOV, 39lb/hr Injectors form SVT Cobra, 80MM Lightning MAF, Tuned by Warmonger, 3" SS exhaust, Small ADC water to air intercooler.

A complete blast to drive even at 5-6psi. Still roasts the tires when boost hits on into 3rd. Intercooler becomes noticable bottleneck at high rpms so I won't even bother upping to boost until I get a larger intercooler.

263HP/272TQ @ ~3800RPM, 6 psi. Due to the small intercooler the HP and TQ fell on its face after the secondaries opened up and the motor needed to breath.
