I think I found the perfect drivetrain for my 1980 AMC Eagle project car. It's waiting on paint but has a 85 CJ7 258 6cyl in it for now. 110 hp, but it sure would be nice to triple the power output. I can't believe they have a MT/4wd pairing with it. Must be from outside the US.

So spill the beans. What’s it all have obviously a larger turbo. Significantly larger. Any graphs. That up in the tuned focus Rs territory

His number is pretty healthy gain over the baseline, but as you know a person really can't compare two vehicles like that on two different dynos, even same dyno different days.

What you’re saying is 100% correct.
So you know:
I’ve been to the same dyno on different days. Also: That brand of dyno is notoriously known to be lower than most.

I think the M5R1 transmission was used in the old ford rangers and Mazda trucks

Yeah but they never had the ecoboost motors. They didnt keep the bellhousing pattern from old lima 2.3s and 4.0s for the modern ecoboosts, did they?

Either way its awesome they put that combo together, I hope the company lasts long enough for me to have the money to finish that project. I can only imagine what it would be like to drive a Eagle with as much spirit that the Maverick provides.
