gettin busy twin turbo 5.0 foxbody *update* x5 *hotrex teaser vid*
 
putting the turbos on the stang. and fixing my little compression problem in one cylinder (valve or something)

setup:
painted valve covers
twin m10 turbines from dodge 2.2 turbo motors
12:1 fmu (cant afford injectors and MAF at the moment)
JRC 6' FMIC from my integra
carquest trans cooler used as oil cooler
cheapest bov i can get
straight downpipes out the side behind the front wheels

a/c system is being taken out. leaving the smog pump, i'm going to route it to the end of the downpipes and i hope it throws flames at night ::)

painted my valve covers and intake and such, it used to be half homo red and i thought it looked stupid.

i hope at 8psi it'll add a kick in the pants

old engine compartment.

Actually, not to discredit Johnny, but there was one. "Alex in Houston" had/still has one. He doesn't post much. I don't think he likes me. :'(

Looking good, my first car was a 89 5.0. We got it from some old lady for 2000 and it only had around 40000 miles on it then I blew the tranny out. Wish I would have kept it.

using upside down headers for manifolds on the turbos?

Re: gettin busy twin turbo 5.0 foxbody
 
You might look into the EECTuner setup from Moates. They have an adapter to go into your diagnostics port and an adapter to use a BURN1 to burn the chips for it. If I ever actually buy the ----, I'll let you know how it works. The Hypertech chip in my SHO (has EEC-IV like most Fords) is a big pile of gay.

My 89 is now a homemade twin turbo. Unfortunately, I seem to have lost a cylinder. Taking the motor out this weekend. It has a ton of miles on it anyway. Good luck with the project!

Re: gettin busy twin turbo 5.0 foxbody *update*
 
got both turbos mounted.

need to tap the pan for oil returns. and also make the feed lines and get a block fitting for them. should be easy, except i have to tap the pan while its in the car. because you cant take the pans out of foxbodies with the engine in the car because the front crossmember and sway bar are in the way. vortech says its safe to punch a hole in the pan, then grease the ---- out of a tap, and thread a fitting in, then change the oil! i hope its safe haha :/

also, charge piping = nightmare hehe.

waiting for bov and intercoolers still

i'll post a couple pics in a min, eating and watchin the simpsons

accordepicenter 04-14-2005 10:06 PM

Re: gettin busy twin turbo 5.0 foxbody *update**
 
well... if vortech says so

J-SMITH69 04-14-2005 11:53 PM

Re: gettin busy twin turbo 5.0 foxbody *update* x2
 
still gotta cut the exhaust housing on the drivers side turbo, similar to the passenger so i can weld a pipe on it, open downpipes own... lol

the driver's side turbo exhaust housing also has to be clocked, but its heat seized, so im going to take it to a metal shop and have them heat it up for me and loosen the bolts. i dont want to risk breaking one off at home.

yes the welds are shitty, but i have the $99 habor frieght welder, and everyone knows the feed is in and out. it doesnt feed smooth so its hard to keep a bead.
