Another Turbo Build

[F8TL66SNK]

Here is a quick update:

Some cortex goodies came in and they are nothing short of a work of art. Should have them installed in about a week. We went with JRi DA shocks and struts and the watts link.

[F8TL66SNK]

Thanks! The mustang was a post deployment gift to myself in Kentucky. Then I got a job working at the US embassy in Estonia and they shipped my car over. There are a few other "imports" here bit we are the minority. I keep the car feed with bmws and audis. As for vids, I will charge the gopro and take some vids. It is still on low boost ~5psi but pulls like a freight train.

Finished engine bay pics:

Also got some work done on the suspension today. The off-set struts really do free up some room (I have 285/35/20 on the fronts).

wow man some nice hardware in this build.. good job. I'm confused I thought the CPR kit required a K-member and losing the front swaybar..?

Comes with a custom K-member and retains the front swaybar

thanks for the info
Has anyone hit a road course with one of these turbo kits..? I wonder how they handle with the extra heat in the engine bay.
Sorry not trying to thread jack.

My plan is to hit the road course here shortly, we have a nice one about an hour from Tallinn. This is being built to be an "everything" car
-road course, 1/4 mile, 1 mile and daily drive. We get some pretty rightous winters here and this has been my daily driver. For winter i have some 19" studded tires.

Badass man thanks and keep us posted on your results on all of the above.

10psi on a cpr... that motor is toast. That's going to be like 740rwhp with high 600rwtq isn't it? lol

Yeah the ECU went into "limp" mode when we did the first 4th gear pull WOT. Shaun yelled at me, something about stock block and crappy European fuel. We put the softest spring ~4-5 psi back in and will work up from there. Finding any sort of race gas or Torco is almost impossible here, but I may have a lead on some prospects (have to take a ferry with th car to Finland to get it).

Probably add another 100ftlbs to that... Lol I made 647 on 8 lbs and a greedy dyno
