[Fire Hawk]

That looks awesome! One question though as I've wondered. With the impeller facing the front with nothing to block bugs or debris getting into it, can it cause any problems having it that way? I know if it was a steet driven car it certainly could but on the track?

[UWILOSE]

looks good guys, it looks like a GT 47/88

[AutoMods]

whose car?

[Fire Hawk]

whose car?

Someone with a 94-98 body style. Probably a 94-95 given the motor in it.

[Rogue86]

Looks sharp! New player coming out for this year?

[stangvortech]

nice!

[Domestic Disturbance]

Is the gap from the intake to throttle body supposed to add power? :butthead:

Looks pretty killer

[Jappbox]

I like it, looks sweet. I just wonder why someone spends all that money and goes with a turbo thats 10years old. why not do some new turbo tech stuff and really fly!

What magical turbos would you suggest?

[90 notch]

Their's a reason for that,they've been tested time and time again to produce.....you're right it'll prob be a mid 8 sec car,that's not fast...Steve o

But how much RWHP will it make? That's more important than what it runs in the 1/4 mile... LOL!!! 1300rwhp and can do roll-ons from 70-190 mph on the interstate is where it's at. Don't worry about the family in their SUV in the lane next to you, roll-on racing is serious BIZNESSSSS...... :sleep:

[K-ville]

^ hahahahahahahahahaha

[slow ride]

The few extra hp gained with the latest and greatest turbo won't hold a candle to time/money put into chassis development and getting the car to leave off a brake and two step.

[allgo]

AMEN!!!!!

[N*M*S]

I like it!

[sparkles]

Wow. Scott. Welcome to the the other side, lol.

[mustangmike45]

yeah Chris and Steve did a killer job on the build. The extra details that they put into it were what put it over the top and their quality is as good as any shop I have ever seen! Thanks again guys it sure will be fun to take it out to play here soon.

[mustangmike45]

And a big thanks to Ed for hauling the car back and forth for me! Really appreciated it man, thanks

[N*M*S]

Wow. Scott. Welcome to the the other side, lol.
Just going where the action is!

[Rogue86]

10.5 Car?

[mustangmike45]

yeah I am thinking I will give 10.5 a try.....

[Rogue86]

Good to hear! Cant wait to see it run.

[mustangmike45]

its been 5 years in the making so i am pretty pumped myself to hear the beast! Hope it's got enough to compete as you guys have some pretty fast rides around here.

[69gt4speed]

looks good, the twins do a damn good job on the fab that's for sure.

[Deimos]

Is this the mustang mike that use to run his mustang with nitrous? If so I thought Jason told me you sold your mustang or maybe it was Ray...

[mustangmike45]

what up Jake. it sure is. and no never sold the car as you see. so how is that camaro coming along?

[Deimos]

Sad to say camaro is dead man. so I will never get that rematch. At least i got something else to work on and hopefully have fun with. it's nice to see you finally did the turbo build you were talking about. i hope that bad boy hauls for ya.

[mustangmike45]

that sucks to hear Jake. Yeah between family and work it has been hard to get the car done but with the help the twins gave me and having a one of the best in the country build the motor I think this thing will fly when she's done.

[Deimos]

i didn't even know your were buddies with the twins. Who built the engine? Work sucks and families take money.

[mustangmike45]

I am friends with pretty much anyone who shares the love of racing. It's one of the few sports that guys would rather help eachother out than step on your face to get ahead! That being said, I haven't known them for a long time but they did the cage work on the car and after seeing their skills I asked them to do this fab work for me, and I am happy I did cause it turned out killer! As for engine builder.. would rather not say as I need to keep some stuff under wraps, lets just say in the finals this year he had 3 out of 4 winning motors and is a genious with engines and port work!

[K-ville]

no point in hiding a builder.. a combo is only gunna do what its gunna do.

but id understand not giving specs...

[Deimos]

that and he likes the suspense. I hope it runs good and you do some 10.5 racing with it. Maybe we can get a rematch on the track this time bud.

[BUCKETT]

I love to keep secrets! Them twins do so killer work! The time is getting closer!

[Scott]

Yeah it is and I havent even started tearing my car down yet!!

[K-ville]

at this point im so far from being done my only hope would prolly be to take it to the twins!

[BUCKETT]

How is the cage coming?

[K-ville]

check the update in MSCA RIDES

[mustangmike45]

well, Chris and Steve are making the finishing touches on the car this week! The guys really stepped up and finished off the project for me and all I can say is Thank You! I don't know what would have happened with the car this year if they hadn't taken the helm on it. It fired tonight for the first time as well and all I can say is WOW it sounds nasty! Thanks again guys the work is second to none and every little detail that has gone into it has been top notch! I will post some pics when I get a chance and the car is back home. Almost time for some tuning

[StreetSweeper]

Sweet.. Whos tuning?

[mustangmike45]

larry at assc is tuning the car next week and then starts the long road to learning to drive this monster! it should only take a month or two to learn! lol

[mustangmike45]

well got the car tuned. Chris and Steve really built a monster! Their long nights and dedication really paid off. With some help we got a few minor bugs ironed out on the dyno and got way more than expected out of it! All I will say is 1000 plus rwhp at mild boost. So thanks to RGR, ASSC, Chris, Steve, Eric, and everyone else involved would have been lost gettin here without all the hard work.

[StreetSweeper]

Congrats! No start your journey of gettin all that HP down the track!

Congrats Mike can't wait to see it.

[Mike@Salkowski-Motorsport]

congrats

[allgo]

Whos Eric?

[snickerlicker]

The TWINS did some top notch work on that!!

[mustangmike45]

yes they did do some nice work! now i have the long road of trying to get the converter right and learn to drive the SOB. Hoping to make it to Cedar Falls this coming Friday maybe. And Eric Torrey is who i was talking about Joe.

[allgo]

I didnt know eric worked on your car..

[mustangmike45]

Eric did not work on the car. Here is who did what
-rgr built the longblock
-Assc (Larry) tuned the car and will continue to tune it as we go
-Eric sold me the turbo, gave me some ideas/pointers when I started brain storming the combo a few years ago, and then helped out with adjustments on the dyno as he is friends with Larry
- Chris and Steve did 95 percent of the car! They did the turbo kit, wiring, fabrication, cage, tranny, and made everything work together. I am sure I forgot some stuff but basically they lived with the car for about 2 months straight day and night. This project was way above my abilities so I am just glad they stepped up and built the car for me, hell the car fired first crank at chris's house if that's any indication of the job they did. If you didn't see it while it was there you will have to check it out at the track sometime. The twins really outdid themselves on this one! Like a work of fockin art! Now just gotta get some seat time in it and some advice

[Mike@Salkowski-Motorsport]

when are you testing?

[StreetSweeper]

Sweet, if you want ill ride along and coach you! haha

[mustangmike45]

want to try and go test this coming Friday night. Either Cedar Falls or Cordova not sure yet. Cordova has the midnight deal so I would get more passes trying to get a feel for the power. Hell, I haven't even drove it on the street yet I am hoping to on Wed if not this weekend will for sure be interesting!!

[Deimos]

good luck bud

[akp0639]

Saw the car on 7th ave today sounds and looks amazing!
