03 Cobra Twin Turbo/ Auto build

SonicBlu03 · January 31st, 2012, 05:37 PM

Dustin, not a problem, and yea, some confusion in the arguements, didnt mean to start one in the first place lol... and yea, ive had my buddy check a few times.... definitely journal bearing, but its not even an issue... the car will make power, and thats what matters, i am starting to make a lot of sacrifices with the build, and its looking like im just gonna try and get it back together, worry about shit as i can afford it... as long as the twin kit and the suspension is done, then the hardest parts will be over

SonicBlu03 · January 31st, 2012, 05:41 PM

Unwrapped the downpipes and cleaned and coated them

Hotside manifold to turbo, a general before and after pic

SonicBlu03 · February 2nd, 2012, 01:16 AM

K-member is all stripped down and ready to be tucked away till i find something to do with it

Lower pulley finally came off, it was shockingly easy once i had a strong enough impact

gonna be doing valve seals while the engine is out

way too much going on in these things, and the new 5.0 is even worse than these...

SonicBlu03 · February 2nd, 2012, 09:07 PM

manifold is painted

this is all thats really going back in lol

new timing cover is on

unused hole filled with black rtv

turbo manifold on

both mnaifolds on, waiting to get oil fittings for the turbos before putting the oil pan back on

SonicBlu03 · February 7th, 2012, 06:00 PM

UPR k-member kit came in today

and solid engine mounts

codycat91 · February 7th, 2012, 06:28 PM

Since when are you copying me with solid motor mounts too? And now, you also have to have a mod change your title AGAIN

SonicBlu03 · February 16th, 2012, 06:55 PM

Custom head cooling mod

So much room with no supercharger pulleys

98Cobra_sleeper · February 17th, 2012, 12:30 AM

thatsa very nice yes yes

SonicBlu03 · February 17th, 2012, 01:04 AM

Lol thank you, still have some paint work and tucking to do, but im trying to get all the basics done so i can wrap it all up in a nice finished package

SonicBlu03 · February 27th, 2012, 04:32 PM

I ordered my wastegates yesterday, and also a new blow off valve because the one the kid had on the kit on his car was a cheaper one. I bought 2 TiAL 38mm WG's and a 50mm TiAL BOV. but on another exciting note for my build, my rear suspension came in today!
Spherical axle housing bushings

Lower HD torque box reinforcement

Upper HD torque box reinforcement

HD bolt upgrade kit

UPR pro-series double adjustable upper arms

UPR single adjustable pro-series lower arms

BIG NEWS!!! Fuel System, ORDERED!!!!
Lethal Performance 99-04 4V Budget Return Style Fuel System [LP-9904BUDGETRETURN-4V] : Lethal Performance, Performance parts for Ford Mustangs
extremely excited, it was a big decision, and it might mean it takes a little longer to finish the car (maybe mid may at the latest) but i didnt want to do all that work to the car this year just to run the stock fuel system and make the same power i had last year. cant wait to get it in, Speed Inc supposedly shipped the wastegates and BOV today as well, and my new front rotors will be in tomorrow so i can have a rolling chassis again for the first time in 4 months! still so much to buy and do, but at least its dwindling down to the final stretch!

SonicBlu03 · March 6th, 2012, 06:49 PM

Well since i dont have codys main bearings yet, and my teacher wont let me do codys axle because he wants me to do it with the support housing and some other crap at the transmission shop on wellsville campus, ive been picking away at little crap i can do to my car till i get my parts. speed inc claims that they should have my wastegates by Friday but im not holding my breath. today i ended up relocating my fuse box underneath my fender well, ill take pictures on thursday since i work tomorrow and have to miss school, but i atleast got the front end finished, brand new OEM rotors and Hawk HPS pads

SonicBlu03 · March 8th, 2012, 03:03 PM

progress?

sgtboylan · March 8th, 2012, 08:23 PM

awesome job man. lookin good. best of luck w/ everything. i'm all about changing stuff up. do what you want if people dont approve screw em! theyre not the ones driving it. so long as you don't put a V-tec in there yo. haha. that would be sacriledge.

sgtboylan · March 8th, 2012, 08:24 PM

*sacrilege

99Ls1fever · March 11th, 2012, 09:22 PM

Very Awesome can you show some pics of how you customized the piping on the on3 kit to use and support twins?

SonicBlu03 · March 13th, 2012, 04:24 PM

i actually didnt end up buying the On3 kit, i was originally going to do an ON3 FF kit and an auto, then i found a nice Twin kit for a similar price used, so i bought that. sorry if there was any confusion in the posts. appreciate all the support from people, sometimes it gets a little discouraging considering this winter it got stripped down to a bare chassis
