anyone boosted a vanos m50?

[ogbimmer]

the more I read the more I find out the vanos m50 and the nv m50 are actually really different. but theres no going back now, so my question is has anyone boosted and tuned a vanos m50? what kind of number are you making? How hard was it to tune? I have a Ms3 for my build with really aggressive cams, ported and polised head with 5 valve head job,thicker metal hg, arp studs, forged pistons and rods. should my motor be able to take 25psi, and any idea about what I should make

My bone stock 2.5 made 220rwhp at 7 psi on a mustang dyno, NickG tuned.

With your hardware and a good tune at 25psi you should be north of 500hp easily.
What type of manifold you plan to run? I have T3 and T4 top mounts available.

You can also run one wastegate. What are the specs on the turbo, brand?

Had the stock ECU tuned for a draw through set up. I think the new MS can run vanos.

Draw through setup?

Draw through setup?

Used the stock MAF in front of the turbo.

Draw through setup?

MAF on the inlet side of the turbo.

We do a blow-through MAF setup that runs really well.

Thats good to hear :) I will get the specs off the turbo as soon as I get back in town. Its been in a box so long sitting I have temporarily forgot about it.
