Finally going Single

Long story short. my '99 twins ran 305hp on a mustang dyno Which I'm told is around 350ish on a dynojet. But I'm tired of the little things that go wrong with the sequential turbo controls. So I just bought Turblown's EFR 8374 kit, Water inj and fuel pump. A little info on the eng already. AEM Coils running direct fire, FFE fuel rails with ID 850/2k's, FFE 60 tooth trigger wheel, Adaptronic ECU, Aeknights solenoid kit, full 3in exhaust, full emissions delete, AC delete, Street ported, re-medy water pump, Koyo racing rad. (highway driving temps are around 175 deg @80mph). I'm sure i'm missing some things. But I'll start taking pics soon as I start to take apart the old turbo system and as parts start coming to the house.

Very nice Carl. I am looking forward to seeing it come together

Do you have a starting point picture of your current setup? Sounds like a pretty legit twin turbo setup


On a random note, have you ever been to Seabeck? I spent a couple of years there as as a kid and used to spend weekends taking the ferry out of Bremerton to Seattle then to the Kingdome to watch Jr (and Sr for a season or two) and The Big Unit. I loved Washington - especially the coast. Still love the Mariners

Ya it's been pretty rock solid. Except for some of the typical twin turbo issues. I think the radiator may be too much. Like i said above driving temps are 171-175 consistently. This summer temps never rose above 178 while driving. As it starts to get colder again the temps start to go down. this morning the drive in it never got above 170. if i sit the car and let it Idle they'll get up to 195 and then the fans kick in and the temp drops to 178ish.

Ya i've driven threw Seabeck quite a few times. May be looking at buying some land and build a house. I take the Ferry every day to go to work.
