soo you say this is a different setup than 3 years ago, does that mean this one actually runs off both banks of cyllenders?

Turbonetics makes kits for the 05+ Mustangs. I think they come in two versions, something like 460hp, and 550hp. Heres the link to the 550 one

if u cant see that fromthe pics then i wont even respond to that,and the first one did as well

[Mike]

nah man, i remember the old one not having a cross-over, and so do many people on here. so lets not try and play it off by saying i need to look at the pictures

[project89]

if u really belive the first one didnt have a crossoverur dumb, the way the whole first one was built it was impossible, itused an under k member y pipe conected to the stock manifolds or do i have to post pics of that as well.

i know what i told u guys i took the car out once with the incomplete ypipe the car was never actually run like that, i still have every original pic of when the entire system was built the first time around
u didnt see the crossover and u wouldnt have unless u crawled under the car

[Mike]

if you were using stock manifolds like you say, how was the turbo in front of the motor?

but, whatever you say, easy to come up with storys now that the old account is gone along with all the threads

[project89]

like i said under the kmember y pipe, the first one shows the caped factory y pip i took one out cause the pic washuge im resizing a few better ones and uploading them

[Mike]

and like i said, its easy to post pics now that everything old is gone.

[Mike]

btw, i hope the new setup has some better welds on it

[project89]

^^ click to enlarge to big to post as reg imgs

there u can see the downpipe out the ds running passed the caped y pipe, and the ypipe was used as the crossover


u mig weld to old rusted pipe and see what it looks like, the new **** is all tig'ed stainless with the exception of the mild steel crossover thats migged and thesame with the charge pipes, which is all being swaped out to aluminum charge pipes, and a 321 stainless crossover with vbands

[Mike]

its been 2 years, you can post as many pictures as you want, it wont change a thing.

[project89]

and heres the rest plain as day crossed over as it was being built




i actually didnt give a**** when i did the first one it waslate on a sunday couldnt get new tubing and needed the car for work on monday so i reused some of the old rusted tubing from the stock ex system total invested first time around was about 800$'s

[Mike]

looks like you welded with the gas off

[project89]

no lol that fawking rusted dbl wall ex tubing was some nasty **** to weld to. and like i said i didnt care it wasa sunday i know i was sweating my ass off andi just wanted it done i wasnt bothering cleaning any of the pipes off i knew those welds would holdand they did, i neverhad oneof the welds break or anything . i did the entire first setup in 2 days if i remeber right.

besdieshow they look has no bearing on how strong they are look at the china manifolds and headers on ebay, those welds look perfect nice and clean but they break on every set of headers

[Mike]

yeah because they leave the welders set up the same way they do for bicycle frames, and the penetration isnt good enough for somthing hot like an exhaust system

[project89]

oh yeah and somone asked if the cars made a full pass this was second time out 5 or 6 psi. 0 boost launch and just over a 1,000 ft pass due to ping and knock on the top end .
daughters mom is driving the car
car was way lean with 13.2 afrs under boost and only 14*s of timing
tunning session number 2

[LTb1ow]

So what did it run? And when you blow the LT1, I will buy the turbo off you.

[Mike]

if you watch the video it was 14.01 at 99

[project89]

car went 14.0 @ 99.79 on that pass very low 13's on a 6psi launch with a full out run on 6psi,car has made a bunch of low boost runs just to break in the motor, nothing to serious yet,weve loged 343 miles on it now besdies the dyno trips and few highway runs island would have been the first full out high boost run.

which after the hose incident for the second time wont happen until i can find out why im pressurizing the cooling system,tom im going to install a presure gauge taped into on of the coolant ports on the cyl head or block and take it out for a high boost run and see what it does. im really thinking that either i am lifting the heads,or blowing compression right past the fire ring on the head gasket.only other thing it could be would be a misaligned intake gasketbut then the car would run liek **** all the time

lol if i blow the lt1 i can use that turbo on the ls1 or the 4.3 vortec motor, though my t74 i have for the 3.1 is larger then the gt45

You ran a 14 at 6 psi??? Something aint right.....
