Its is a T4. I paid $500usd in a group buy... It was the most expensive peice of the puzzle. The car is Speed Density.

Re: My Turbo 5.0 project!
 

I really like the car. Me being one of the few Ford guys on the board had to step in and give you props for your work. Overall it looks like it is going to be a really nice setup.
What are you going to use to fool the Speed Density Computer. I am not sure if the FMU is going to be able to overide what it is doing. Haven't really messed with the SD Mustangs much. I went from Carb to Mass Air and now i am back with a carb on my race car. I do miss my fuel injection a little though.

I have been looking at those Master Power turbos too. I have seen that a couple of the guys on www.turbomustangs.com have been using them for their DIY kits. I may be attempiting to build a carb blowthrough setup in the near future if I can ever get the car running the way I want it to.

But yeah man that is a sweet setup and I can't wait to see it running.

Re: My Turbo 5.0 project!
 

Nice one. I'm planning on doing a similar setup with my V6 Ford Ranger. I'll post pics when the install happens.

Re: My Turbo 5.0 project!
 

Looking good. That thing is gonna haul ass. What do you want to make powerwise?

Re: My Turbo 5.0 project!
 

nice, single turbo is so much easier on the piping!

Here is a pic of the welder I got. Mark(From this site) and I welded up all the charge pipes and made a little down pipe with it.

Re: My Turbo 5.0 project!
 

nice job man...



dont worry about that turbo. ive been using the Master Power turbo for about a year on my car and the only thing that i can tell you to watch out for is that you dont feed it TO MUCH OIL. make sure you put a restrictor on that oil supply.

i fed it 40+ psi for a couple months and the seals started leaking. i put in a restrictor on the oil feed and i have no complaints at all now.


and dont worry about the guys that want to flame you for the Master Power turbo, they have a vandetta against SSAutoChrome but they cant seem to understand that SSAutoChrome is a reseller and that Master Power has nothing to do with SSAutoChrome other than the fact that Master Power allows SSAutoChrome to resell their brand of turbo's.

Re: My Turbo 5.0 project!
 

Nice work, sounds pretty mean >:D

How's the wastegate working, the placement doesn't seem like it would relieve the turbo from the driver's side bank very much. post some pics of the charge pipes...

Re: My Turbo 5.0 project!
 

yeah about the wg , why didnt you put it where the two pipes meet so it splits the exhaust gases equally rather than it just dumping from one pipe.
