my best friend(are cars are matching except he has a red interior and has a user name on NATO) and i did a food challenge at a local restraunt. the challenger is to eat 7 of the states hottest wings plus lettuce and the gobs of hot suace on the lettuce. i did it with 1 second to spare and my friend bailed at wing 4. my cheeks had tears rolling down them, i was sweating and my hands were shaking. it felt like a lighter was burning my lips. If we have a weak stomach or get grossed out easy, STOP READING NOW!!!! i have puked a few times and nothing good coming out the other end. such bad stomach pains, i cant move and just want to curse. its a on and off pain. worst pain ever.... BUT i got a free TSHIRT and my picture taken to be put up on a board with only a hand full of other people out of thousands of people that have tried it! going to be a long night.........
i want to up grade my fuel system so i can pump out more boost. around 23-25 lbs of boost out of a t3 t4. im getting a 255lph walbro fuel pump, bbk fuel regulator but im curious on what size fuel injectors i should get. thank you for your help
so through my research on the 300 which i was swaping into my car. i found out that they arent really performance motors unless you put a load of money into it and you have to cut up the engine and firewall abit and i dont want to do that to my car.
my T5 turbo doesnt fully spool till about 5,200ish rpm with a racing header. max boost ive gotten up to is 18lbs. is this because of my head being restrictive? would the higher flower exhaust im going to get help this spooling problem? at 3-4000rpm it puts out around 7lbs, 4-5200rpm it bumps up to 10-15lbs then once it hits 5,200 it feels like vtech and bumps up to 18lbs. i shut down around 5,800rpms.
does anybody know what a turbo coupe would sound like running a 3" magnaflow exhaust(cat and ler) that comes out right before the the driverside rear tire sounds like? just a single exhaust.
its an 87 turbo coupe. 5 speed mods: svo roller cam conversio svo cam .420 lift T5 ball bearing turbo racing header magnaflow dual exhaust ( not full exhaust yet) intercooler fan with heat shield B&M short throw mass airflow adaptor (not installed) K&N cone filter inline boost controller smaller crank pulley
just last week i bought a 87 turbo coupe. its a black 5speed. its interior is perfect but the paint sucks.. there are spider web cracks all over the car and rusting bulge under the paint on the passenger door, and i big scratch on the driver side fender. but here are the mods.
SVO roller cam swap svo cam .420 lift racing header T5 turbo at 18lbs boost magnaflow lers dual exhaust mass airflow adaptor 75mm mass air K&N cone filter B&M short throw shifter smaller crank pully

i just bought a 87 turbo coupe 5speed, and im having problems when i take it out of gear into neutral when im driving, it either dies or it drops down really low into the rpms. and the turbo hesitates when its spooling around 11lbs (max boost is at around 18+) it has a:
racing header T5 turbo (that what the guy told me) mass air conversion adapter k&n cone filter and some exhaust work intercooler fan and heat shield smaller crank pully and a short throw shifter.
i know this has probably been beaten to death, i did use the search thing but nothing specific to what im looking for. my question is how do swap to disc brakes in the back and larger disks in the front. and where i can find the parts to swap. perferably new parts.
i have heard there is a company that can make any type of hood for 87-88 tbirds and cougars. does anybody know what place im talking about and point me in the right direction.
