ahh trans line, well the turbo died. but my boys over at comp turbo, took care of me at no cost. i put her back together with the new gate yesterday, and she's running like a champ. i just need to slap it on the dyno, and put my front end back on.. (i had to remove all my piping since oil was in it..) so i basically removed/installed the entire turbo setup again.. not bad for a two day thing.

Is that coupler going to the throttle body a big Home Depot coupler?

Nice numbers! Thats gotta be fun to drive, and only 8psi too! Turn that mbc up to 15 for some real fun/destruction. I sucks about those cheesy rods. Did you say that you're already building another motor? You should use one of the triton 5.4l. That would make for a pretty decent "sleeper"

it usedto be, it got replaced by a RPS coupler.

it actually made 479rwhp/509tq @ 9psi

but I wanted the boost @8psi to keep it nice and smooth..

new video coming soon!

don't know if any of you noticed, but my fuel pump was pegged at 5100rpm.. so it's still got more power to make.

did i mention its beyond quiet? you can't even tell the car is turned on.. videos to come.

That's pretty good power for that turbo.

Here's our Twin Turbo kit for 05+ mustangs that we just finished prototyping.

It has twin 57mm BB Precision's. 622rwhp at 11.5psi of boost. The run just prior made 649rwhp, but this saleen motor has too tight of piston to wall clearance, so we took a few degrees out to make it safer on long pulls.

the torque it made seemed kinda low.. good numbers and nice looking kit though.

my turbo is freaking LOUD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i raced a little turbo crx, on the freeway a while ago.. pulled on him 2 cars, and let off at 115mph..

i assume he didnt let off, passed me and turned on his hazards.. had me cracking up.

gotta get my fuel situation figured out so I can take it to the redline.
