Twin Snail Build...

[GrnBullitt08]

Very nice... Your car should be a monster once you get all the bugs worked out.

Yea man... I just need to get a Autolite Plug gapper and see if that stops the spark from blowing out and breaking up...

 

[bigmachano]

fucking amazing! i'm gonna be trying to keep that pulsing sound when i (eventually) get around to doing this. it seems like every time i ever hear about those garretts on a mustang, they just put out shit loads of torque!!! i can't wait to see where you end up! ...subscribing

I think BBR has the gapper tool on sale now.

what did you have the plugs gapped too?

 

[rford426]

Good luck man glad the dyno went good and shes still alive!!

Supposedly for 8-15psi you should have a 30 degree gap... I think the autolites come pregapped to 50...

Couple videos of tunage...


It was a 4th gear just thought he shifted more at the time...

Congrats on the build! Your ride looks and sounds awesome, cant wait to see the #'s you get one the plugs are gapped

Awesome, car is gonna be sharp when its done. Sounds like he is barely even tapping into the power the car could make.

When I asked how much he thinks I could make he laughed and said could make or wanna make for a while..

 

[GrnBullitt08]

Yup... I've been hearing the same thing.

You'll run out of turbos at about 800-850 flywheel hp. Mine are 53mm and are good to about 900 flywheel hp. Deduct whatever amount you believe for driveline loss. My automatic soaks up 24%. We put down 477 hp and 541 tq on 8 psi and 10 degrees timing. The car ran 128 mph at 3820 lbs. Doing the math that equates to 626 flywheel hp. Remove the 24% and you're back at 475-477 hp at the tire.

Bottom line though: twins are bad sumbitches!

Very badass man!! Sounds great, hope the autolite gapper is what you need and it is all worked out soon. Keep us posted!

Torque for days!

 

[US-1]

That's the main advantage of turbos. People don't seem to understand how I can run 10's on only 8 psi. The problem is they are staring at boost and horsepower numbers. Torque is the key.

Yah 8lbs and doing 10s is insane..Very doable though! I plan to buy a Hellion turbo kit within the year and push around 8-9lbs. It will be the base 61mm with the ball bearing upgrade. Will that be too much for a stock motor?

Alrighty, sorry for the thread jack.

Dam you also know how to hook like a monster... My suspension needs to get pieced together, I hate having this bull shit rearend slop...
How come you can run 8psi and I can only run 10-11? Are you externally wastegated sd?

This is what I am running I don't think it's that much different....

 

[US-1]

Mine are externally wastegated. When I bottom the adjustment rod it gives 8 psi total. Probably because I have larger turbos. Bottoming the adjustment on yours yields 9-10 psi where mine is 8 psi.

US-1 I'm guessing your an engine builder or own your own shop, because you sure do know your shit brotha.
