    Tony's 2G Makes Terrorizing Power - 666 WHP / 525 WTQ - FP 35R - Mustang Dyno

    They are -10 lines. The 90 degree fittings hit the hood, I had to cut away part of the structural part of the hood to make them fit. I should have had the fittings welded sticking straight out the side or right on the bend of the valve cover for a better fit. I hope to make it to the shootout...

    2G FP DSM86HTA Quest for 9's

    I've thought about it not sure if I'll go that route just yet. I'm just sticking to the e-brake at this time. I have thought about boost by gear, but haven't bought the parts to set up. Not really, just the carbon fiber hatch, carbon hood, and took out the spare tire. I don't have A/C...

    2G FP DSM86HTA Quest for 9's

    I was slipping the clutch to much at first because I wasn't used to it. That was one of my downfalls at the Shootout. I did not have any seat time with the welded diff. Once I started getting used to it, I slipped it less and the car kept bogging. I was at 6000rpm on my 2 step. I raised it up to...

    2G FP DSM86HTA Quest for 9's

    I had my front center diff welded hoping to get better 60fts. I haven't had much luck. The car behaves completely different. My 60fts have been anywhere between 1.66 to 1.88 :-/. Here is a video of my latest runs.....note the run against the red CRX was a 10.20 pass.....

    Is the FP 68HTA Capable of 500 HP

    Never got around to weighing the car. I have a carbon fiber hood and trunk. No AC, full interior, and no spare tire along with all ~250lbs of me. Those passes were on QTP's as well. The car had gone 10.91 @126mph at the 2013 shootout with no back seats. I think that 60' was around 1.5#ish. Here...

    FP 68HTA dyno results

    That was me! That is on the 7cm, I've had this turbo since '09. I didn't push it over 30psi until I dropped in the built 6bolt. I was running E85 in 2011 at 30psi never dynoed it. On just a street tune from Devin at Boostin the car ran a 11.77 @ 122 mph, stock 7 bolt, full weight car with AC...

    2G FP DSM86HTA Quest for 9's

    Ok, so last year I was on FP68HTA turbo and achieved a best of 10.83 in the 1/4. With plenty of 10.9 second runs. This is on my 2g Talon. So for this year I have upgraded to FPDSM86HTA which is their 3586R with the FP30 hotside. I wanted something streetable and not very laggy is why I opted for...

    Tony's 35R 2G DSM - 624WHP & 476WTQ - Mustang Dyno - Boostin Perfomance Built and Tuned

    It is a 4inch Intake Devin put together for me with a welded an fitting on the side. It is pretty much the same thing STM offers. Probably close to 700hp range on a Dyno jet. So far the car has trapped 145.6 mph with a 10.22 sec 1/4mi run.

    Seems like clutch slip, but no smell

    I had a similar experience except it wasn't my clutch that went bad. I was turning a corner when I felt a pop. Then any time I accelerated my rpms would rev high and I would hardly go anywhere. I thought it was my clutch. I got the car home and the next morning I figure I'd take a look just for...

    Guys experienced with SPEC clutches please step in!

    I personally had a very good experience with SPEC clutch. I ran their Stage 3 plus, since I planned on drag racing. I used it for two seasons, first season running consistent mid 12's and second season high 11's. I used a fidanza flywheel that I had been running previously with ACT clutches. I...

    16g turbo not making boost

    Did you check your wastegate? I would look to see if the wastegate arm is still attached to the flapper and functioning properly, that's if it is still internally gated.

    I agree with JusMX141. You get what you pay for. I went the same route you are thinking. I bought a small 16g used minimal shaft play, only lasted a couple months before I had issues. From there it was just a money pit, trying to resolve the issues I was having. In the long run I could have had...

    Short shifter?

    +1 for the B&M short shifter. You have the option on having a 30% reduction or 50% reduction. I myself for my 2g have it set to 50% reduction haven't had any issues with it. It does sit about stock height though.

    Dash Swap

    I know a few people that have swapped the vin plates over and haven't had any issues. Though I myself have not looked into it as far it being illegal or not, I myself am going to go ahead and swap out my dash. If the vin checks out with the rest of the car why would there be any other questions.
