88mm Turbo buildup

[408GT]

Some pictures of the turbo setup that me and my friend did on his 94 vert. I drove it Friday night and it pulls hard! Turbo FTW!

Well his old combo w/ a Novi 2000 made 650rwhp @ 12#'s of boost, and a lot has been done since then. I think after tuning maybe ~800rwhp?? The car feels a lot stronger than it did with the Novi.

We all went and dynoed our cars this weekend. My car on the motor made over 500 at the tires. My buddies 01 Cobra made 336. And the turbo car in the above pictures made well over 800rwhp, and still has more tuning left. I just figured I'd give an update. What do you guys think?

This isn't a real good picture, but it's all I have on my computer right now. It's a 408 Windsor with AFR 205's Ed Curtis custom grind Victor Jr. 950 home built carb and a TKO-600. I had just got it running in this picture. enjoy

here's the dyno picture. I didn't have time to scan it.

You know that we took the camera out there, and forgot to video any of them but mine. If I can figure out how to post a video on here, then I'll do it.

I have a precision 88m on my 03 its a tiny bit laggy but it made more hp out the back then twins by about 69 rwhp at the same 22 psi.In all I'm pretty happy hope to get it back in a week or so on 28 psi LOL.G/L with your project

Damn that's f'n badass man.

You and your buddy should join Stangnet. Great group of people.

I just got some more pictures of the "finished" product of the turbo car. I'll try to get back to ya'll on the video.

Dammm thats sick. How much boost are you gonna run on that thing?

 

[408GT]

The power made on the dyno was at 14 lbs. The car was still making power, but the cam is hydraulic roller so the springs were giving up. He's thinking of going solid roller, and turning it up harder, but then the fuel system won't be enough! We're just going to finish up all of the little stuff for right now and see how it does.

The car in the thread is mine. It made 890rwhp @14psi on pump gas, the power is still climbing, next time we're gonna turn it up to 17-20psi

This is my car. The reason I posted the pictures of his car was because me and slowstang101 built it. I did most of the welding and fitments of the pipe, but slowstang was there helping too.
