I didn't know that car was auto. You haven't taken to the track yet have you? What's the butt-dyno read on it? You have any good kills or just turbo Hondas?

no not really any good kills. if people hear the turbos or bov they assume its a lot faster than it really is.

i walked a cobra with full exhaust when i was at 6lbs. and they run about 12.6~ stock

Yep, AOD trannies= teh suck. Although once you swap in the T-5 be prepared for the 2nd gear synchro shuffle.

One point of critisism, why in the world do you have those ugly ass GT taillights on there? The LX taillights look 1,000,000 times better.

Pretty sweet though.

Hahah, man all my brothers and sister are nuts about 5.0's - all t-5's too, reverse goes: u-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-CLUNK! second gear goes: Ahhhhhhh grind, grind, grind..... It doesn't help that everyone and their mom has no clue how to speedshift second in those cars.

Re: New pics of the race car
 
that's a little nicer that its twin boosted, which would be better for a turbo setup crx's or hatches?

J-SMITH69 04-24-2006 11:53 PM

Re: New pics of the race car
 
the RACE car lol got a new rotor and some brakes in the rear.

the passenger side rotor had some nasty grooves in it. 50 bucks not a bad price for a cobra rotor. also got some decent vented pads

this thing stops like a ----------er, you better have your belt on cause it'll send you through the windshield. 3100lbs and big brakes and tires = stops on a dime.

some nice grooves

You know what you should get to be really different? Some of those chrome cobra R rims..... O0

What are the future plans for this thing?

ososlohatch 04-25-2006 11:06 AM

Re: New pics of the race car
 
no way stock pony rims ftw ... my buddy just swaped on some stock pony rims with nitto drag radials ... not sure what tranny he has but on 14 psi on those tires we were racing a rear mount turbo camaro , he dropped it at around 3500 and sprayed through 1-4 and the tranny sounded find to me .. that's on a 90 fox body gt with i.h.e. and a 85 shot

Re: New pics of the race car
 
mostly everybody who owns a mustang out here has those cobra rims they are played out and the stock ponies look nice that's a real sleeper i wouldn't be able to tell that it was boosted on the street if i see it from a distance.

So you can tell from looking at the outer shell of a car if it is turbo or not? :1

streetracer42084 04-25-2006 10:48 PM

Re: New pics of the race car
 
usually by a front mount most cars that are boosted you a big front mount and the ones who are sleepers you can't see them until you hear them or you look closely at the front bumper.

Holy hell man, did you not see the post directly above yours where I told the man he had missed the sarcasm? :S

and now you too! :o

That's it, just call me Mr literal now, everything I say you can take at face value. (except this)

Sweet setup. Anyone know about reliability on the mustang auto's? If they are anyting like any other auto ford made in the early 90's, expect it to stop working somewhere around 100,000 miles.

good call you must be the expert. ;)

my chassis has ~160k on it.

the trans has about 70k, it was taken out to be "upgraded"

its taken tons of abuse at 5-8psi and some people have been running them 9-10psi running 11s and such with them.

good amount of power + od = does not mix.

but they are not glass by any means.

what going to go wrong with them is when you have some power, slipping clutches, busting OD...

its not going to pop like a honda trans though

Sometimes I swear, yall make such stupid, un-founded statements on here. A stock to mildy modified 5.0 AOD will run long as the motor (and 5.0's are reliable beyond belief, especially to be so low tech). Ford didn't build the tranny to sit behind a 500 HP motor, so if it breaks behind such a motor, damn go figure ???
Don't believe me though, I know nothing about them :S
