      Oh its pretty good, needs more gear down low though. 0-60 beat a 5 speed 2002 Mustang 3.8L by a car length. Hung with an s2000 1st gear pull 20-60 then he pulled away.

          LMAO no room....A powerstroke IC fits perfectly, a huge turbo (holset H1C) fits without any problems...Hell, even the powerstroke IC tubes line up to the panther TB!

            A 2K stall is good for a stock lopo... You need more. 2400 or better.

              Not a whole lot going on, still rabblerousing the cash and looking in the yards for mass air stuff.

                  Will that work with any mustang mass air computer and any injectors or do they need to be 24lbs, or will it all have to be tuned to run?

                    any MAF meter outside of the stock Mustang MAF will need to be tuned to run correctly.
                    stock mark 8 meters are calibrated for 24lb injectors, I have one left over from the MAF conversion I did.

                      I've got a spare 80mm with harness I picked up at the junkyard for 5 bucks..

                      MAF's aren't "calibrated" for injectors. ECU's are calibrated for injectors and MAF's.

                          Yes, I know this... it was just easier to explain the other way.

                          Regardless, the Mustang ECM wont be calibrated for the 80mm MAF or the 24lb injector, so it doesnt really matter. you need it tuned anyway.

                            No pics, but I did have it all mocked up on mine. The PS IC fits nicely, granted to keep ac and all that a mustang rad and condenser would be required to look completely stock. I'd imagine that with a 351W the clearance under the headers would be even more, which would make running the exhaust out of the turbos easier. Depending on single or twin, relocating the alt to the smog pump location would be beneficial-which I recently found requires modding the AC bracket to get the 3g out far enough to line up with the rest of the accessories.

                                Here a video of Anabelle doing 0-80mph. Had to turn to get onto the curved on-ramp so videos not so great...but you can hear the engine roar. If you go roughly by the video, I floor it right about 7seconds in and get to 60 at about 14 seconds so maybe 0-60 in about 7 seconds? IDK for sure.
