Twin turbo mustang intake

[Zmechanic]

Been doing a bit of welding on the intake side of a twin turbo setup. Few pics of the progress so far.

Is this your car? Will this be street legal? Tell us a little about the motor part. I'm guessing to be twin turbo you have to have a stout bottom end?

[Zmechanic]

Not my car, but potentially street legal, although I doubt it will ever see the street. Motor did right around 800HP N/A and they ran the car that way. Owner immediately decided it was too slow and opted for turbos.

I can see that, 800 to the wheels is nothing ... Nice welding (and massive snails). I take it you will you be welding all of the tubing to connect everything up? You know you'll need at least a few people to test drive to ensure everything is in order before handing it back to the owner, don't you?

So with the twin turbos will it have an additional 800 hp? I think I had read somewhere that a single turbo gave up to 50% more horse power? Not sure if that is correct.

I would think 800hp would be under 10 sec quarter mile.

are you running inner coolers , coolers are what get the most out of a turbo or supercharger . lol i am a supercharge person so much easier to set up

It did 10.0's on just the motor. I have no clue how much it will make after it's all said and done. Depends a lot on how much boost that motor will take. Maybe we'll get a chance to put it on a chassis dyno sometime.

It has water to air intercoolers in the dash, which is why the piping is running from the turbo back through the firewall. Then, after the intercoolers, it will come right out of the firewall and hit the throttle body and intake elbow.

what engine compression are you running

You can pretty much make as much HP as you want with either single or twin turbos.

My bike is only about 160rwhp stock, and 480rwhp with a single turbo. Only limits are really at the extremes (over 2000HP applications) just due to the physical size of the compressors required.

Welds look good!

And those are some big snails... Definitely looks like a drag car with all that weight up front and water to air IC's in the dash.

I like the tubing routing. I definitely wish I had gone out of the engine compartment on my Mustang.

Is your bike the one in your Avatar? Is it a 750, 1000?
What your guesstimate on what a stock bottom end of a GSXR 1000 can handle as far as boost?

It is a hayabusa.

You could probably run a completely stock 1000 to low to mid 200's. I don't really have alot of experience with the liter bikes, and even less with street applications for liter bikes.
If you build the bottom ends, over 500hp is possible with the liter bikes as well.

lol... I didn't look that close I guess because that Sure is a Busa....
I'm eventually going to build a rail buggy with my 1000 motor in it but the stock hp is not going to be enough to do what I want

Any recent updates on this Mustang twin turbo project?

Not to dereail the thread, but I'd like to hear more details about the turbo busa. Is there a thread on it? S/F.....Ken M

I took a bit of time to make the motor plate and mounts, and got a few more of the pipes welded up inside the dash of the car. The dash is pretty crazy looking. My boss (shop owner) did all the pipe layout, he just has me weld them up. :-)

I got pulled off it yesterday to weld up a custom made wishbone for a 4-link setup on a drag truck and machine some bushings for the 4 link brackets. I'll try to post some pictures, if my phone will cooperate...

Alright, here we go






Ya know, you haven't lived till you've had to use your foot-pedal like a thigh master while kneeling in a car to tack up aluminum tubes...

Great looking motor plate. Looks a ton better than modifying a generic off the shelf plate.
