The Evolution of a Mustang.

Looks awesome man! Nice list of mods already. Have you considered going turbo for the FI? You should think about it.. turbos and autos go together like pedophiles and mustaches!

Good. I'll figure out the install when my car arrives then. Roush instructions seem to be detailed.

The rear end look with the Roush valance looks great!

They definitely were! There was a template in there too that told u where to cut and everything.

I have considered it but overall cost seems pricey. The kit I'm most leaning towards if I can't find a good used one is JPC's Paxton race package. I definately won't do the hellion kit and that seems to be the only single kit out there. But I'm open to anything. I just know I don't want another positive displacement blower as much fun as they are.

My car has the CPR single prototype kit. I think you would probably like the kit. It already comes with a tubular k member and radiator support. Check it out. http://www.s197forum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=84527

Just went through some of the thread.. Awesome build!!!!!! So how much are u in $ wise so far with that kit? Obviously I know u get what u pay for and not skimp on certain things but I want to know what to expect.

 

[keoni1984]

Thanks man. Well, I bought a lot of stuff that's not pertinent to the kit, So I'm in it kinda deep. Really you would just need the kit ($7300) + injectors and a boost-a-pump. I bought the ID1000's, but there are a few other good injector options that don't cost as much. I got my injectors for $715 and the KB BAP was $240. Everything else in the thread was other stuff I kept adding just for the hell of it.

 

[Bullett]

Not too bad for such precision. I'm definately gonna keep that as an option.

Figured I'd update this thread instead of starting a new one. Car has gotten a couple more mods. It sits on Invo's now and I ended up staying at 3.15 gears. Looks wise it's the same as well. I did however order a Paxton from Beefcake!!! My kit, injectors, cai, and catch can are all here and I'm just waiting on the BAP! So the changes are as follows:

Paxton 2200SL
3.6 pulley
BAP
ID1000's
JLT CAI
Moroso Catch Can.
Lund Tune

As soon as BAP arrives it's all going on! I'm shooting for this weekend. I hope for some good ET's!! Here are some pictures..

Sweet, looking forward to the update!

I know powerade is delicious, but I don't think your Paxton will enjoy it as much as you do lol

 

[Bullett]

Lmao. I agree with you sir.

Yes ill definately keep y'all updated! I need the BAP! Ahhhh!!!!

Very nice build. What times are you shooting for et wise?

 

[GrabberBlue5.0]

In all seriousness, that'll be a badass ride!

 

[Bullett]

Very nice build. What times are you shooting for et wise?

I'm hoping as close to a 9 as possible. The goal is to get it to run good tune wise first, then start working on suspension. Well see how close I can get. I feel confident in Lund Racings ability to get it to run good.

In all seriousness, that'll be a badass ride!

Thanks man!!

 

[konablue11gt]

You may not need anymore suspension mods to hit 9's ...Stretch hits 9's on his without anything..alot of the Paxton /Vortechs guys are in the low 10's high nines

 

[Bullett]

True I've seen some. I want to stay on the same pulley and pump gas though. But they run incredible times!

[beefcake]

car looks great

 

[Bullett]

And she's done. Gonna get BAP on momentarily and begin logging

Thanks Beef!

The evolution continues... Being rebuilt with boss rotating assembly, head changing kit, and valve springs. Going to throw MMR or TSS oil pump gears too.

 

[moostang09]

Damn man! Sorry to see that! But hopefully the rebuild holds up and you reach your goal of 9's in no time!
