bought a shitstang. its stupid.

[bonesaw53]

So yea. bought a crappy mustang. 2004 cobra. pushing close to 700hp and a 3.3 lythium twin screw. heres some pictures.
896897

side note how hard is it to change gears in the rear?

[stangvortech]

that is a sick car. some one put lots and lots of coin in to it. It still has the irs right?

[bonesaw53]

correct, still IRS with FTBR bushing set and MM coils. I'll work on posting a current mod list later tonight.

[stangvortech]

The irs is a pain in the ass vrs the solid. Do you want to trade for a solid? I will have one soon. I would not go with to much gear with that car. It is a monster!

[bonesaw53]

Possibly. I'm still learning about this whole setup. I'm Just changing back to the 3.55 gears. has 3.23 in it now.

[slow ride]

Hell I think all you would do is make it spin easier.

[stangvortech]

It is a 99 gt rear end with Griggs coil overs, Griggs Racing Panhard Bar, Griggs Racing Severe Duty Torque Arm, frpp 3.73's. I would leave the 3.23's in it untill you get some good seat time in with it.

[c_mart_28]

That car is an absolute beast!!

That car was my motivation to go e85 a couple years ago. Just an amazing car.

Nicely done! Would love a ride in it.

[AutoMods]

nice car. saved yourself a lot of time and money buying one all done up like that. you and cmart should be a close battle for 2nd next year

[bonesaw53]

there is the current mod list for the car some stuff is out I'm sure. That was the idea Import. I was done building the whole thing after the whole evo thing....

[slow ride]

Sounds like fun to me. I bet it hits hard just putzing around town.

[snickerlicker]

Sweet ride!

[FiFdYnUtZ]

Good lawd, bet that thing is a handful on the street

[StreetSweeper]

Fuck man with all theses people seing the light we should be able to re write a queen song before you no it! Remember what i said about putting that thing to some good use logan. You wont go back i prommise!

[AutoMods]

according to my estimate, those 1000cc injectors should be near their max (95% duty cycle) at around 775whp on e85 IF you are still running stock mustang fuel pressure 3 bar, 43.5psi. A lot of people say not to go much past 80% duty cycle on injectors but those bosch ev14 injectors are pretty good at high duty cycles.

at 4 bar/58psi, they would support upwards of 900whp @ 95% duty cycle

[StreetSweeper]

according to my estimate, those 1000cc injectors should be near their max (95% duty cycle) at around 750whp to 775whp on e85 IF you are still running stock mustang fuel pressure 3 bar, 43.5psi. A lot of people say not to go much past 80% duty cycle on injectors but those bosch ev14 injectors are pretty good at high duty cycles.

at 4 bar/58psi, they would support upwards of 900whp @ 95% duty cycle

Does that mean them injectors would really be working hard?

[bonesaw53]

Not stock fuel pressure. currently around 60psi. hint hint wink wink

[Domestic Disturbance]

I see the intake is now on the drivers side. Thats where it picked up the extra hp I would assume.

[Drifte]

nice car. saved yourself a lot of time and money buying one all done up like that. you and cmart should be a close battle for 2nd next year
I see what you did there...

[Batwood]

"Almost 700whp" ... you're funny.

[CiviC_boY]

It sure is blast to ride in. Even at half throttle its crazy.

[BGjohnson]

That car has stupid money put into it! If you bought it already done you probably saved $20k. Have fun with it, I'd say the 3.27's are going to be perfect for the street with that much torque and power.

[OldSkoolRCR]

"Almost 700whp" ... you're funny.

WOW! Got me covered...maybee I should get the rear and Da hit!!!!

[Scott]

Gotta remember with a stick and tall gears like 3.27 it can actually be harder to launch then a 3.73 for example, because of the amount of slipping you have to do with the clutch. try it the way it is then swap and see what you think

[AutoMods]

3.55 would probably be better but i'd also agree to leave it alone for now. the supercharger has a lot of low end. drop the tire size down if you want lower gearing.

3.73 might not give you enough gear IF your t56 ratios are similar to an fbody and IF you approach trap speeds nearing 150mph, 26" tire. play around with a gear calculator and don't forget a bias tire will grow 1" to 1.5" on the big end.

i use this one but its for gm t56 http://www.f-body.org/gears/

[JacobS]

i hate you...this car is so smoooooooth

[AutoMods]

if he's giving free rides out , i'll take one

[Domestic Disturbance]

Ya jumping of a gear change rather quickly. Shake downs first, then change parts, run again, compare results, etc etc mustangs are queer

[StreetSweeper]

I Agree with everyone else! Run her once then throw the Auto in AND GTFD!!! :)

[SUPPORT]

I remember I saw this Evo once that had "Snake Slayer" in the back window.
Think he's faster than you Logan? Lol

That turd was slow! lol

[AutoMods]

what happened there? i thought logan's evo trapped mid 130's ?

[Scott]

what happened there? i thought logan's evo trapped mid 130's ?

He was running on low boost low timing low air pressure small shot tune duhh

[Chase]

I thought batwood got the cobra after the Evo blew up. That must have been after he put the stock motor back in it?

[JacobS]

correct^

[Batwood]

I thought batwood got the cobra after the Evo blew up. That must have been after he put the stock motor back in it?

Shhhhh....
I believe his best time was an 11.1@140.

[Deimos]

Damn that quick

[AutoMods]

damn, i thought my 10.7@139 was bad. hopefully that shitstang will do better with the et vs mph with some torque

[FiFdYnUtZ]

I'm gunna go out on a limb and say traction is going.to.be tricky with this setup

[snickerlicker]

W

Supra territory right there...

Supra territory right there...

my mazda irs rear did better, i thought you said ford was good ?

[snickerlicker]

my mazda irs rear did better, i thought you said ford was good ?

I think that Ford is disgraced to be in your Mazda... At least those c-clips held up...:)

[bonesaw53]

Correct. that video was of the car completely stock.. Prior with the old setup it ran a 11.1 @ 140 and 11.2 @141 with some boost issues. Checkal suprisingly it hooks extreamly well. It's powerband still suprises me by how smooth it is.

[FiFdYnUtZ]

Nice, can't wait to check it out

[derek072887]

bump for more pics

Still cant get over how long these bolts are.

[AutoMods]

who did the roll bar ?

[snickerlicker]

Looks like a Maximum Motorsports one.

[bonesaw53]

Looks like a Maximum Motorsports one.

correct, then powdercoated wrinkle black.

[sparkles]

I really like the wrinkle black. Might have to do that to mine.

[Batwood]

Where's your door bars, Logan?

[bonesaw53]

where's your door bars, logan?

damnit brian i said shut up about that!

[WhiteHemi345]

Still cant get over how long these bolts are.

I'd figure you'd be there for a 1/3 of a second per stud with a impact just getting the rims to seat against the rotor. Guy by the name of pinokio probably ran those through production.

[derek072887]

Where's your door bars, Logan?
so you never answered this logan....

[JacobS]

only race cars have door bars....

[Scott]

only race cars have door bars....

but really fast street cars have 25.2 cages and dual parachutes ;)

[AutoMods]

those race seats look nice, look pretty wide
