On V8's use 2 medium size turbo's will be virtually no lag.... buddies has very lil if any... but then again the motor makes up for a large part of it... It feels pretty smooth. But you can hear those turbos spool up REAL WELL!! See the boost needle climb to 25lbs. Its crazy!
But it doesnt make 1000+ hp |

Custom built T56 6 speed transmission.
Can get the Transmission company's name if you wish. He had an Art Carr C4 tranny in it before the T56. |

he doest dump it at high high rpms. But with the McCleod clutch (however ya spell it) It seems to hold up well. Been in there for about 1 and half years now I believe...
He custom ordered the T56 tranny from a company.. I forget the name but if your interested I can get ahold of him and ask. But mainly... the gear ratios where changed. Not sure of what else was done to it. It obviously has a different bellhousing. Actually he was trying to sell the car for a while... high asking price! 1989 Mustang LX Hatchback 4 bolt main block Central Coast 347 Stroker kit 8.4:1 compression Dominion 4 valve heads (dont ask I dont know on those I had never even heard of them) BXR intake Incon Twin Turbo's (upgraded by TurboNetics I believe) MSD Billet Distributor MSD 7A ignition MSD Blaster Coil E type Saleen 11mm Spark plug wires Iridium Denso Spark plugs (******* 97 bucks for 8 plugs!! OUCH) Cobra Mass air Conversion 77mm C&L mass air meter 42lb fuel injectors Steeda Fuel rails 270lph (I think) fuel pump 25 Gallon Race Tank 8 Point Roll cage EGT gauge Boost Gauge Oil temp gauge Oil pressure gauge Tachometer volt gauge fuel pressure gauge Rich lean gauge Custom built 9.0 Ford Rearend with strange axles Titanium pushrods Bassani X pipe Aluminum Driveshaft 95 GT cloth seats Rear seat delete A/C deleted Rear battery installation there is a lot more yet but thats just what I remember him having... Funny thing about it... It looks like a stock LX 5.0 It has pony wheels (yeah try driving on those tires! hahaha) 3 inch chrome pipes out the back (not dumps) Cobra grill insert 3 inch cowl hood (because of the heads and the tall BXR intake) So it looks like a 5.0 LX with a cowl hood and big chrome pipes... Not what it sounds like. But a sleeper none the less... though at night you see all the damn guages in it! This car when he had the Art Carr C4 tranny in it wanted to rip the tires off the car at 7500 rpms! lol he was asking 28 grand for this car..... The heads alone cost like 6 grand... |

Sweet i will give him a call and see what he says....
|
Ok gave him a call...
He said its a T56 from D&D performance with different gear ratio's. He said nothing really special about it. But he did say he has an Aluminum Flywheel and he replaced the McCleod clutch with the more Common centerForce. Said the McCleod had a lighter feel to it and was a bit more streetable but that the Centerforce holds up better. On a side note... he said the tranny is holding up fine but that he is considering switching to a Liberty 5 speed now. Oh forgot their site here it is.... www.ddperformance.com another thing I just noticed... my IP # changes.... |

Welcome...
He does it drive it hard but he really doesnt rev it up and dump it... lol serves no purpose... He can sit at a light right now start out in 2nd shift into 3rd at 10mph plant the throttle to the floor and nothing but smoke... Crazy.... only does it on the 245's though.... But the tranny seems fine.... |
It is almost impossible to do a single turbo setup on a V8. Think about it the turbo would have to be exactly the same length away from all cylinders. So either the turbo would sit behind the engine, under the engine, or in front of the engine. With a twin turbo setup on a V8 it is usually two turbos of the same size.
|
You could always go with the asymetrical turbo setup, just like the new Saab's.
|
Snowman I think theres a guy on stlmustangs.com using a single turbo running off of just one bank of cylinders....
|
A friend of mine is running a single turbo on his 00 GT stang. If I'm correct allyou need to do is have a cross pipe, like in the Grand National, to bridge the gap between the banks.
