My 88 TC

Trying not to turn this into a project car but every car turns out that way

I bought it for my wife to drive to collage but I really bought it for me the heavy mods won't come till she is out

The car currently has dual flows msd coil short shifter bbk fuel reg. cone filter in the fender boost controller 255 in tank saleen front breaks ss break lines drilled rotors on all 4 corners

Only issue is bucking above 10 psi of boost fuel pressure is at 40 psi no vacuume

I have it at 10 now and it drives fine ..... I'm not to worried at the moment seeing as ill most Likly turn the boost down a bit for the wife lol

Future mods a off road 3" exshast  and lowering it ... I will go crazy down the road

Day after I got it at the gtr car show lol

Nice car...

What is your plug gap??? The stock coil won't fire plugs at more than approx .038-.040... I dunno what a MSD will do, but the Crane coil I had couldn't fire plugs in my 5.0 at .045 using a 75Hp nitrous shot, was happy set down to .035...

Looks like a nice clean car.

I heard to use only Motorcraft ignition pieces on the 2.3T, plugs cap rotor wires coil.  Maybe start there, after you check the codes, of course.

There off a saleen that's the front drill and slotted rotors all around

I'm probably going back to stock up front so I can make a little cash


Car looks good in pics but could use a paint job

Very Nice! These cars look great in White!

You planning on sticking with the Gloss White for the re-paint?
