Trying not to turn this into a project car but every car turns out that way
I bought it for my wife to drive to collage but I really bought it for me the heavy mods won't come till she is out
The car currently has dual flows msd coil short shifter bbk fuel reg. cone filter in the fender boost controller 255 in tank saleen front breaks ss break lines drilled rotors on all 4 corners
Only issue is bucking above 10 psi of boost fuel pressure is at 40 psi no vacuume
I have it at 10 now and it drives fine ..... I'm not to worried at the moment seeing as ill most Likly turn the boost down a bit for the wife lol
Future mods a off road 3" exshast and lowering it ... I will go crazy down the road
Day after I got it at the gtr car show lol

Nice car...
What is your plug gap??? The stock coil won't fire plugs at more than approx .038-.040... I dunno what a MSD will do, but the Crane coil I had couldn't fire plugs in my 5.0 at .045 using a 75Hp nitrous shot, was happy set down to .035...
Looks like a nice clean car.
I heard to use only Motorcraft ignition pieces on the 2.3T, plugs cap rotor wires coil. Maybe start there, after you check the codes, of course.
Yea haven't had the car to long
Plugs cap rotor are to come soon
I'm suspecting there is to much gap
Bought the wife a mishabishie lol
This car is mine and in the garage

Came home and washed the car after I already took a pic lol
But the new rims cleaned up nice

very clean
Tell us about your brakes? lol
There off a saleen that's the front drill and slotted rotors all around
I'm probably going back to stock up front so I can make a little cash
Car looks good in pics but could use a paint job
Those didn't look drilled, just slotted. Anyway GLWS
There drilled and slotted just can't see in the pic
Ahhh Ok.
Very Nice! These cars look great in White!
You planning on sticking with the Gloss White for the re-paint?
Yea it will be painted white to much work and money to change colors the right way
Plus I like the white .....TC's are Oxford right ?
Yep, pretty sure it's factory name was Oxford. At least it was on the Mark VII's.
Yea and the white fox mustangs
I liked the last pic so much I took another today after grabbing a pack of smokes
I also through on a new fuel filter unplugged the knock sensor and turned the boost up from 10 to 15 and it likes it night and day difference ..... Still dose not feel fast to me though lol
I'm going to swap on the bigs and littles on the 10th and see what she dose in the 1/8th stay tuned

Nice looking car!!
Thanks I just hope I can get around to doing this valve cover gasket so I can run it down the strip
Car has Ben sitting due to needing a smog but I did a few things today
Changed the vc gasket ..... Wonder why it was leaking uhh .. Some people should not touch cars
(http://i1131.photobucket.com/albums/m550/pooppoop13/AB6EB634-C620-49F1-8547-A4DC3807E3C6-5430-00000443926B86D8.jpg)

Wrong plugs and way over gapped
Smog soon so I can drive this bitch again hope she will pass the legal way lol
Well new CA star program sucks
Did a pre test today passed smog by 1 point but fail visual
Those dumb ass toutched my car now I have a check light and I failed .... Never had one till he dicked around
My trunk and car fill up with gas fumes now also .... This is turning into a big deal thank you California
Well got some gauges on a trade so I thought I would put them in I still need the matching water and boost

Took for ever to get the stock sender out there is no room lol

Nice. I'm gonna be mounting my gauges in the same place, when I get ready to install gauges. Already have my boost gauge mounted in the hole where the stock clock used to be, and yea that stock oil pressure sender and the fitting, is a royal bitch to get out of there in that tight space. I waited until I had the head off on mine, and then took a 4ft long prybar to it, lol.
Yea getting it out sucked lol and it's a perfect spot for some gauges
Ok I have a very badly cracked bell housing
Found one in the yard but it was also cracked
Is this common on 2.3 turbos ?
Anyway dose anyone have one they can ship to ca for cheap ?
Just shopping around for the best deal work is tight and I need one on the cheap
No one has a bell sitting around ?
You looking for an A4LD or T-5 bell?
I'll see what I can find this weekend at the JY.
T5 with a hydraulic set up
I need cheap though I was hoping someone had one lying around
Carnage

The block plate is also broke
Just gives me a reson to do a clutch lol
Looks like a good time to me!
Yea pulling transmissions is always fun lol
Nice looking coupe!
Thanks!
Ok after a long road I finaly got the car smoged ca is cracking down big they are trying to get the old cars off the road by making it hard to pass smog
I first did a pre test and passed by one point with cheap 91 ..... Hc blew a 77 out of a max of 78
So I mixed 5 gallons of good 91 and a gallon of e85 and went back hc went down to 66
Pretty cool trick I thought I would pass on
well I had a tail pipe hanger break and needed to be welded so I ditched the tail pipes and went dumps lol
I run dups on all my stangs and love it ....my car has dual flows but was very quiet ....not no more for a stock down pipe and cat it sounds bitchin im loving it

The good old People's republic of Commiefornia....
You need to be told what to drive...Sacramento know more than you... :(
Travis
Car looks great!
Move to the Carolina's, you can get away with just about anything on old cars here. The majority of people here don't even run Cats anymore. Of course being buddys with the inspection tech doesn't hurt. :D
I feel the same way! Never thought I would get so into these cars as what I have, since I bought mine in 2010.
thanks
yea CA sucks big time my mustang would be a street car but CA bs keeps it a track only car lol
Put in some 4.10's today and restacked the trac lok ..... Pulls way better
But think I broke the t5 not the first by far but the first in a 2.3 lol
the weird thing with T5...some last into the 11's....others die in a 14's car....lots of people say a short throw shifter is a must..
Travis
I still have to find somebody around here who can repair my first gear in my T-5. It pops out violently when you let up on the clutch. My replacement is doing good, but I want my other one fixed. I may have to learn how to do it myself.
I got a guy that will trade labor for labor he wants some gears done
Idk I might just drive my truck for a while lol
T5 is fine for now
balancer came off and was slapping around
(http://i1275.photobucket.com/albums/y445/sawuoff909/2B488244-A2BF-49E2-94FF-85681D8BCD1C-1537-000000D1E5F5E965_zpsd0d8842e.jpg)
Back on track with this car
I've had it parked outside and lost interest after I sold the bigs and littles it's on ssp ten holes now ..... Not my thing
But cleaned and detailed it today and put her back in the garage and installed a Stewart Warner digital tach and led shift light
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-THXm1XQCII&feature=youtu.be
Changed the oil today put in some Lucas hot rod oil has a higher zinc level
Also put in the SN lowering springs .... Cars new nick name is 1low bird lol
It's perfect and exactly what I wanted Pics to come
It sits 1/4" lower in the rear no big deal right now I used upper and lower isolators in the rear and just the upper up front should have left that out and it would be perfect
