Project/LF thread - Mustang returns to track duty!

[yanrider]

Soo exited!

So I'll be looking to install a;

bigger rad
Oil cooler (on turbo car, what's best place to install? Between oil pump and turbo?)
Ordered tighter Sparcos
Richer tune
Colder spark plugs
One pice drive shaft
Wheels/tires
Tow hook

I might run street tires for a while as they will expire if I don't burn them up soon...

Email me at yanrider@hotmail.com if you got goodies you want to sell please

I use an Mocal thermostatic sandwich adapter (sits between block and oil filter) for my oil cooler. No pumps needed; uses existing pressure to circulate.

My setup;

Where's the oil source for your turbo? Put the cooler inline there.

[yanrider]

Carey, I had to use a shorter oild filter for clearence to pipes so not sure that will owrk. I added a T fitting at the oild pressure sensor to connect a braided line going to the turbo. I guess I would have to go inline on that braided line right?

[RandomHer0]

How large is that line? -8AN?

[yanrider]

Smaller than my pinky?

[RandomHer0]

Yeah like -4 or something. I wouldnt tap that for an Oil cooler.

What about relocating oil filter? Thats an option.

Get a relocation kit.

What he said.

The quantity of oil going through your turbo is almost negligible compared to what circulated in your engine overall.

I'd try to find some room under that crowded hood for a oil filter relocation kit and tap from there for a oil cooler.

[awndray]

If you can find a spot for it, relocation would probably be ideal.


For those who are wondering about the spaghetti...

BAM!

I have the steeda 1 piece Al drive shaft... one of the best mods i ever did. Car is in storage for a few more months, if no one makes me an offer on the entire car (worthwhile), I'll part out some stuff. AL driveshaft would be on the auction block. less that 1000k on it. Its awesome.

[yanrider]

I like this! I gota remove bumper cover for oil coolerage and tow hookage so BAM indeed!!!

For the shaft, keep me posted!

[yanrider]

Update:

Ordered everything from No Limits.

Then got a little kookoo and bought a used APR. GTC-200 pimped out with a with gurney flap, extra riser and a used trunk lid. Also a rear diffuser and a front splitter...

Now to top it off I'm thinking a meth kit.

Been researching w/ MANL. Comes down to two options;

1 - Stage II Snow Performance @ $400

2 - Stage III Snow Performance for a 05+ boosted Mustang
http://www.snowperformance.net/stage-3-2005-mustang-gt-boost-cooler.html


Any personal experience and/or advise if its worth the extra $200 for a car specific kit with modulating and learning capabilities?????

[tellum]

It's definitely a plus to have a system that detects boost and applies water/meth proportionally.

Its awesome.what year of stang?

[Mechs02]

Mine is 07

[volvoline]

i think i have a stock one piece driveshaft for a mustang for that year... not really sure though its a one piece....

[Mechs02]

stock is a two piece 05+

[black120]

the V6 of the 05-10 was a 1 piece.. still no good to Yan

[yanrider]

ALl good. A new one has been ordered. Thanks.

[HOLESHOT]

What ever kit you get Snow or AquaMist make sure it is a progressive kit with built in fail safes for level and flow.

[yanrider]

So I'm all done. Front splitter, rear diffuser, spare trunk with APR wing, alum one pice drive. Shaft and rwo new sparco seats...lost 120lbs with new shaft and seats but maybe gained about 10-20lbs with aero kit. Not bad!

Now just maybe meth and track wheels...we'll see
