You say "Stage 1". does this mean there's plans on a motor rebuild in the future? Possibly bored/stroked 4.2 or 4.3? Gimme food for thought homez

I went ahead and installed my GT rear bumper yesterday. I figured I would go ahead and get it done before sending it to THR so that it won't be a hassle for them...
before: ![]() during: ![]() after: ![]() ![]() ![]() Big thanks again to Mitch and Margo for giving me the hookup on the bumper.

![]() I just went ahead and installed the bumper instead of sending it up there for them to do. I don't drive the car enough to worry about people noticing that it doesn't have dual exhaust yet. ![]()

I would assume the same things, i dont think hes gonna do all those big mods with out doing the little things like dualing it out for better air flow. Nice car coming along bandit, love the s197 body style. I have been debating wheter i should take out part of my savings acct and get it super/turbo/pro charged. I think Im gonna focus on styling and bolt ons though. Im still getting use to the jump from my v6 190hp to the v8 300hp (crank). Plus if i wanna go fast ill just jump on the Ninja. Your jump in hp is going to be crazy from your old car. Congrats!!! Cant wait to see the finished product. Oh wait it will never be finished, there will always be something else you can do to it.

coming from a past procharged 05 v6 owner... with you have plans for anything to go over 400ish rwhp/400 rwtq .. you should invest in a 8.8 vs 7.5 w gears and lsd....
most guys have blown them around that power... http://www.mustangcollective.com go here for info incase you havent heard about it.. yet I blew my motor with a procharger 13psi and a 50 wet shot.. I have a forged SSM motor, with a powerhouse turbo, and zex ... turbo was bought through PMP( if you mean piedmont modular performance in nc)i can run around 13 psi but if i go much higher im liable to blow the rear out like every one else has.. NOt saying you cant beat on it.. but dont go to crazy with a 5 spd and dr at the track.... also.. if you upgraded the intercooler you shoulda upgraded to a D-1sc ... your P1sc will be maxed out at 15 psi.. and the smallest pulley you can go 3.0 .. after that you gotta get custom pulleys done ....

I am going to talk to Brian at THR again about the 7.5 vs 8.8 deal. I originally wanted to upgrade to the D1SC but he said the P1SC will be more than enough for the V6.

more than enough for that stock motor, but is that where you are really going to stop?

1300 to upgrade ontop of the 3200 i paid for it .. so i sold it can got the POWERHOUSE TURBO.. check out The 4.0 Collective Forums - Powered by vBulletin there over 50+ Forced Induction 4.0's on there ill try to check back here but this isnt one of my regular boards if you use dr's and boost over 380 you are 50%50 busting the 7.5 at the track ... YOur choice.. http://www.speedconcepts.com I think its called.. they have a varity of 8.8 with gear ratios 450-799 + 150 for shipping. and thers a DIY install write up of the 8.8 swap as well on the mustangtcollective feel free to send me an email if you jhave any question.. heres a real 4.0 motor for you to savor.. 100% forged internals .. st3 heads w/ cam 8.8:1 c/r ![]() ![]() ![]() and heres my old procharger set up .. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Also items I suggest buying BMR raidator support swat delete bar.. frees up room for piping. .. but then again your not installing it.. DIABLO MAFia .. youll need it.. oh and hopefully you can get a good deal onit .. I have no mechanic skills what so ever and I installed my kit twice and removed it 2x by myself .. just took longer and it was free.

Box Foxes Rule!!!

The weak point on the 7.5s are the side carrier gears,busted 3 sets with
a n/a 302/C4 with 10 inch convertor/8x26 slicks and no bottle.The ring and pinion were never any problem.,just the carrier.2 of them were "built"and didnt make 40 passes each.This was in a 2900 lb Fairmont so I do believe you will have some problems.

Speed Concepts - TO1010 - 2005-2007 Mustang GT 8.8 Rear End Axle takeoffs with 3.31 gears and T-lock (also direct fit on V6 models)
There is a link to a company selling 8.8 take off units from 05+ GT's. $529 plus $115 shipping. Edit: Whoops, I now see this was already covered in post #56. Anywho, this is definitely the route I would go.
