You live in a good neighborhood, right? Just joking those are what we use to call bitchin' wheels.

I sure do

Just get some good wheels locks.

Super nice wheels.

I'm going to ask a question that I 99% probably know the answer to, but this really is my ideal vision for this car, so it's worth asking. Is there any way to change to single turbo and still pass OBD emissions? As in integrating both MAF sensors, all O2 sensors, stock cats, and tune for emissions compliance? Illinois doesn't have smog, but the OBD emissions test is coming up next year for my car, and the only thing stopping me from seriously considering this is the test. Also, the car would be unsellable if there was no way to pass after installing this. But I've never wanted to install a modification more than this.

I don't have the answer to your question, and I don't think you are correct in terms of whether it's sellable or not, IMO. This is what I wanted done, and I got it done. Zero regret

It's sellable. I'm in FL, no emissions testing here.

Yayy front page love! Well deserved! Can’t wait to see more of this build!!! Congrats and I bet it’s fun!

Absolutely love what you did with the grills. I regret not paint matching my now dead project's hood. It'll look stellar! Pay no mind to us — enjoy that beauty. Upload a clip to YouTube when you can! I'm jelly.

I posted dyno clip now, working on some more

Sweet car and build! Quick question though, why not just post the exact Mustang Dyno numbers? There's really no real conversion to dynojet numbers... Any before after numbers on same dyno?

+1. Bring it to a dynojet to get dynojet numbers.

Let me know when you're in town next time and we'll strap it down.

I heard it! But I'd love to hear you fly by with no exhaust being routed

Here are some real dyno jet numbers from our shop car. 30psi low timing E60 fueling with port injection. Lpfp was crashing below 50 psi up top. [IMG][/IMG]

Dope build!

DonSaintLaurent · 05-18-2020, 08:26 PM

Insane build car looks great too!

MPRSSD · 05-18-2020, 09:41 PM

@SSR Performance you need to package this up as a kit, really interested in the kit.

Great build👌🏽

SabineBimmer · 05-18-2020, 09:57 PM

Great job! Love the white grille surrounds. Would not think that they would work but they really do!

Quick edit, why go with single turbo?

Gotta admit I was skeptical of the single turbo idea on these cars, but if for nothing other than that sound, you've changed my mind!!! Sounds insane dude, enjoy it!

tomlong · 05-19-2020, 12:21 AM

Mad props for the vision, investment, and commitment.

I assume the desire to go manual is to better utilize the new power band?

Tires? How you going to put 700whp to the ground effectively on 20" wheels?

Not worth it for a stock block. Even with some variance, I'm a 700+ hp build knowing the high mileage stock motor is being pushed but could possibly last longer than most expect.

I'm looking to do much more work with a shop that treats me like family and can make my imaginations come true with a special custom built motor to my own spec, how I exactly want it. Not disclosing it on this thread yet. And getting the advice needed to make sure it's done right the first time. And not just off-the-shelf parts or stuff that can be found online to purchase.

And do the first DCT to manual swap fully documented, showing the community that can be reality too.

Maybe if you give me a unique opportunity, I'll definitely consider it sometime because I've said good things about your shop and you do solid work and are capable/ experienced.

But I can't wait to see what I do together with SSR Performance, it's gonna be something special.
