that polish on polish bead lock looks really good!

Beautiful ride.... but I predict lots of melted stuff. As pretty as ceramic coating only kits are, on these cars the heat is intense with top mounted turbos... I would add heat wrap to save everything under the hood lol.

If you go heat wrap check out DEI stuff its less "itchy" LOL

I know but I hate that stuff lol. So will see how it goes, I have DEI turbo blankets to install after I get it back from getting it tuned.

When is dyno day? For some reason I was thinking it was Jan 5th but obviously I was mistaken. We all agree it is pretty, but where is the beef? Just kidding . . . it should be a beast!

Looks like he relocated alot of the stuff us normal guys would have to worry about. Coil relocate, no plug wires to melt. No fuse box wiring, etc to worry about. I would take that setup in a heartbeat.

Lol Your where right,the 5th was going to be the day but issues and life got in the way. I hope next week is the week! It's at CMS now and I'm as anxious about numbers as anybody else. Lol Drove it down there but can only use about 1/4 throttle it's pure torture

Rick you know that was a stock rod trying to hold on to 1200rwhp lol it would be a real shame to have to build another motor!

Missile Man · 01-23-2018, 02:11 PM

Nice! What HP gains do you expect? I have a Maggie SC and it's rated at about +125. I'm sure yours has a much higher gain.

When I had the Maggie on there we maxed out at 750rwhp on a mustang dyno and we just couldn't make any more boost with low enough IATs without more mods and that's when I pulled the plug. Plus belt issue and a few other things. With the twins I'm hoping for a more boost controllable power and to be in the neighborhood of a 1000rwhp. Should know sometime next week. Thanks

Well as in anything when you do it yourself and it's not your day job you take a risk. So that being said I plumed the oil regulator going to the turbos wrong and killed both turbos.

So 1600. Later I got them back and am in the process of putting them back on and going to the dyno Tuesday morning

probably only going to have time to run it on springs only and dial in the boost controller later. Hopefully I'll post some numbers Tuesday.

Good luck today.
Don't push it. Been watching this for a while. Patients is key.
I really enjoy seeing people get to enjoy their own work.
Really great project.
