Det_Riot Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 So I know you said you're going to re-sheet the inner fender, are you going to go with a stock replacement, or with a scott fab panel so that you'll only have to put one hole into it for the cold side piping?

Forcefedhatch Posted January 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Thank you sir!! And no problem, it is a good idea to run twins that way, I just wasn't comfortable enough for that much heat, touching other things randomly lol, plus when it did.. It made the worst clunking noise ever!!Sent from my iPhone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forcefedhatch Posted January 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 ***Oh and one other item that I forgot to mention!!*****You will need an oil filter relocation kit, or you can buy the ford 90* oil filter adapter***I forget the part number, but it's easily obtainable.. I just got a relocation kit for mine.... Like 50.00$ if I remember correctly..Sent from my iPhone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auto_x5.0 Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 what cheap turbo would you suggest for a 500-600hp 351w? Could I still use the gt45 you used? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forcefedhatch Posted January 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Yeah the gt45 would be just fine.. I've seen people on the turbo forums pull 600+ out of them.. Sent from my iPhone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auto_x5.0 Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 I'm assuming you're shooting for 15psi with your 7.5psi wastgate spring? What's the rating on those cheaper bov's and wg's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forcefedhatch Posted January 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Probably10-12 psi, they aren't bad at all to be honest, used any of them! On all kinds of setups..Sent from my iPhone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auto_x5.0 Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 I will probably go with cheap ones just to keep my cost down. Now that I know those bigger turbos are cheaper than what most people are asking for holsets I will most likely get one of those. Do you have any pictures of just the hotside off the car? My motor is being built on a stand without a car present, mostly for mock-up. Or will those pictures come later? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auto_x5.0 Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Sweet, would the tubing from some long tube headers be usable? I have an old set laying around that I was going to turn into my hot side headers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
