    Default New project since the Eclipse.

    Yes I know the adustable fuel pressure regulator, will have that done when I recover from surgery. Car was originally s/c, and is a former SCCA car so its not just a straight line car like most mustangs are. Coilovers and Baer brakes make tons of a difference over stock.

    Thanks. I would have way better pics of it at the moment, but its still apart. Over 500whp on a mustang dyno, that is if the block holds up.

    Yea its still apart at the moment. I would have everything back going, but breaking my hand and having surgery on that is a major set back at the moment. I am more than likely going to let In-Tune MotorSports tune the car and they have a in house mustang dyno, but please feel me in on the info of this other shop. Always like to have a good variety. Thanks

    I will! The car is actually going to be pretty light, I hope.

    Also I got a little nitrous for it too, but I don't think I'm going to spray it.

    These and the roll cage along with all the chassis braces, almost get rid of any amount of body roll the car has. It feels weird driving it compared to other mustang, when it comes to taking corners.

    Yea solid axle 8.8 rearend with auburn pro locker, 3.90 gear, and moser axles. IRS is nice, but I'm afraid if I had IRS when I took it to the dragstrip, I'd be going through axles alot. I just want this car to be the ultimate experience for a street car. Not built for just the dragstrip or the road track, just somewhere in between. Something that will be extremely fun to drive and experience.

    Nice set up.

    Thats why you pedal the launch and keep it mostly on a REAL track lol

    Sounds like it will be a blast to drive, especially in a straight line with all that grunt........i hate to think the mpg that monster gets .......hope you have a POS honda or something as a daily

    Yea the setup on the car is,
    306
    windsor j/r heads
    custom grind cam
    efi spyder upper/lower intake
    75mm throttle body
    T-70 turbo
    42lb injectors
    air to air intercooler
    1.6 roller rockers
    Tremec TKO trans
    aluminum driveshaft
    built rearend that I previously talked about
    lots of suspension goodies
    Baer brakes
    lots of weight reduction
    m/t drag radials
    and I'm sure theres tons I'm forgetting


    Yea this car is just going to be my weekend warrior, but I'm more than likely going to sell it as soon as I get everything perfect on it. Possibly going to buy either a supra/skyline/or NSX. I want to get back into the import scene and have a nice looking car.

    Got a little more progress done to the car. Took the front bumper off, then got it back on my lift in the garage. Have the fenders off now, to hide wires etc. Can't wait to get the car done! Still got to go get my flange welded for my Tial wastegate since the kit came with a small 38mm Evolution wastegate. Sorry I don't have anymore pics.



    In the mean time, this is a fun "little" toy.

    Thanks! Once I get it going I'd like to drive it down to the Atlanta area and skreet race some locals down that way, since the street racing scene isn't that good up here.

    I will! Fixing to spend $2000 to finish getting this car going!

    Decided to put a small 50 shot on it also, we'll see how it responds to that.
