" 8-9 psi " " " w/ 110 octane fuel?* injectors, MAF, TB, fuel pump, will all be up-sized and car will be tuned 87 Mustang GT 5.0L TURBO*

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA cough, cough, hack, weez, thud... Seriously though... An intercooled turbo on 10 to 1 CR has to pull out over half of the timing on good 92-93 octane fuel. 10.5 would be rough. 11 would be crazy tough. 11.5 umm.... 2000 SVT #674 13.47 @ 102 - All Motor! It was not broke; Yet I fixed it anyway.

That's what I thought when I called "Streetflight", before they turned ADC. Not sure who answered the phone there, wasn't Keith or Chris, but he tried talking me into the SF turbo kit. I told him "not on my 11.2:1 3L". He insisted I'd have no problems. I was calling on getting a chip for my current setup, and needless to say I wasn't going to order from that guy.

Even with heat sheilding it would concern me. Why not replace the gas tank with a fuel cell in the trunk. http://www.jegs.com/cgi-bin/ncommerce3/ProductDisplay?prrfnbr=4283&prmenbr=361 That would give tons of space to work with. Plus the turbo would double as a heater for the leather back seats. The one thing I am thinking is, how is the oil supplied? Do they run a 8' braided steel line?

They feed the oil as per normal but because the turbo typically sits lower than the oil pan you need to use an electric oil pump to get it back to the pan. 2000 SVT Turbo 295hp/269ftlb@12psi #1 for Bendix Brakes Kits!

It's a toyota. They did eventually blow that motor up and scrapped the whole project car and idea of turbo'ing the Matrix due to it's high CR and the issues they encountered. 2000 SVT Turbo 295hp/269ftlb@12psi #1 for Bendix Brakes Kits!
