hey i have a 2000 mustang gt and i just came into some money...not enough to buy a car which i know some of you will say but enough for some pretty nice mods for my current car. i was looking at buying a kenne bell supercharger but started thinking about twin turbos from helion power systems. i was wondering what i would have to do to my car to be able to handle the twin turbo as opposed to the supercharger.

its depends on how much power you ultimately want, 400whp is about the limit for stock drivetrain. The turbo is great for big power, but youll need a built motor and rear end to keep your car running. A s/c can be bolted on and give you 400 hp with nothin else, if you upgraded your rearend you could push a lil more with the stock block, I think its good to bout 450-500whp.

500 rwhp is REALLY pushin' it for stock internals. I would not venture over 450 rwhp. Either one is capable of tons of power, the TT making more power on less boost though. I am partial to the TT because it has more power potential and will increase your MPG (only if you're not in it though). A TT will also produce more TQ with the same HP as a blower. IMHO a TT is worth extra cost assuming you have the money.

so what exactly would i have to do if i wanted to get the twin turbo and i wanted to have more than 450 horsepower becuase i might start out with that but i deff want more

[DeMello]

you would need a built engine capable of more then 450 and then a stronger transmission and some work on your rear end

[00mustang00]

by built engine what do you mean exactly...sorry if im sounding dumb i just wanna get this totally right when i do this

[HMUSN]

forged internals

[DeMello]

a engine with forged internals...

you can either spend a couple grand getting your current motor forged or buy an already built engine for like 3-4k

[00mustang00]

you mean like forged rods and pistons? or is there more than that?

[DeMello]

i THINK the only other part of it is the crank

[HMUSN]

There is more..

but your right on target.. crank if forged as well.

sweet thanks guys....so which do you guys think i should get? i love both for different reasons im just worried about the turbo having to spool and the kenne bell wont make as much power

[DeMello]

no 100 % sure bout this but

with the hell raiser kit im pretty sure it wont really take any time to spool and i think the kb can make as much power as it but you would need like 3-4 more psi then with a TT

if you have the money id suggesut twin turbo...if not then your second choice IMO would be a turbo

[00mustang00]

wow if thats true than im deff going with the hellraiser twin turbo....does anyone know how much on average a good tune would be after i get everything put on?

[GForce957]

how much power can the stock tranny handle?

[DeMello]

but that kit is like 7-8k and install will probably run another 1-2k

and not sure about the tune that much becuase im sure it depends where you go but it would proably be about 500 bucks to get a custom tune

and i think youd have to buy your own tuner as well (200-300)

i THINK 390 rwtq

[00mustang00]

ok yea cool...i have a friend whos dad owns a shop and his dad is gonna install it for free if we help so im good on that...why would i have to buy my own tuner?
