What I'm WANTING to make it look like in 2009...

[03RCode]

Whipple > Roush.

[EvasiveEF9]

Whipple = 6000 (cannot be found used)
Roush = as low as about 2000 (used for about 1000, give or take a couple hundred)

I'm also looking at Saleen's

Point Taken.

Point Taken.

Yea true I seen Kenne Bell mustang at a show like last year.It was sick it was like a 01-03

[EvasiveEF9]

Point Taken.

I make military pay. No big bank, here. LoL. Though I would LOVE to own a Kenne bell or a Whipple, it's just not in my bank, right now. To spend that much on a supercharger, I'd rather build a JDM rex and out a mini turbo on a B-series and build it for autocross...and it'd probably outrun the stang.

On the other hand, I still want an SC or TT because as much as I hate to admit, I haven't run my buddy's SRT-4 but...it would rape me. Not even gonna bullshit. He's pushing 24lbs of boost, currently, and he's about to jump to...I think he said 34 or 37.

[j99fbody]

here is a couple of my engine bays

[JDMJAYDC2]

looks good kevin all you need to do is clean it up a bit more who did the vc cut for you?

[Revmaynard]

That's the day I got the car. Now it's nothing different. It's cleaner, new plug wires, and I took the black piece off that comes across the radiator.

[JDMJAYDC2]

what did you do that for rev thats fresh air to your intake yo!

[Revmaynard]

Because people lean on them and break the tabs mounted to the radiator and cause your radiator to leak. lol A honda technician told me that he's seen it a lot on EF's the past 20 years. lol

[jmmx258]

MY TURN MY TURN MY TURN!!!!

I tried putting the small radiator in my car it hits my hood constantly. So im going back to the full one

[LIKEG6]

Does anyone sell a mount for the half size or do you just have to make your own?

No, and it won't fit right without alot of modification. I've got mine where is sits straight up and down right now, but it took alot of work. I'd take some pics, but it is all taken apart right now I'm going w/ an all aluminum unit, i've had shitty experiences with the stupid plastic end tanks.

LOL yea right now I have zip ties FTW

Been tryin to figure out how I'm gonna make it work for a little bit I don't have a rad support either so it sucks.


Are the mishimoto and the like the same size as the OE halfsize?

The only modification I did with mine, was I cut a hole through the skeleton of my hood so when its shut, the cap sits up inside basically.

For the bottom, I laid a piece of rubber down in between the core support, and cross member, and it sits nicely down in. My hood shuts just fine. With my radiator standing straight up.

Hrmm..I am also having to make sure it is far enough forward to clear my shitty DP so that might be my main problem. I need to cut some of my core support, I wonder how much I can cut out I've seen people cut the whole thing out before, but they seemed to be more of drag cars.

I'm assuming your DP exits to the right/passenger side. My snail is on the other way around. I made my own DP and it comes out, wraps down around the snail, and hugs the oil pan with 1/2 clearance between the two. I put a few strands of heat tape on the pan. With just a piece of screen and I cut one of my spare foam air filters for my race bike to use as a filter. I do have room to run a piece of IC pipe and a filter. I just chose not to because I've seen what a dirtbike air filter stops, and its less cluttered this way

Yo Dare. He has the gray wagon that has come out on blades with the roof rack. Hope ya don't mind, Trev.






The OEM Clean King.

I was wondering if that was him.

[southside]

If he was low then it would be nice, well it still nice but think it would look better dropped to close up some of the wheel gap.

[Revmaynard]

Yea, but there is NO suspension made for the wagon so he'd have to greatly sacrifice comfort and DD ability. Considering he mountain bikes 24/7 he doesn't need it lowered. But I agree it would look better.

As of right now.
