mikey,
The twin turbo setup consists of basically two T3 turbos (I'm using ones from the Merkur XR4Ti to start off with, .60 compressor, and .48 a/r turbine housing), then I will be fabricating a custom intercooler, probably using three cores from thunderbird turbocoupe intercoolers.
Exhaust side piping will be custom, the exact details are yet to be determined, as I'm still working out packaging the turbos; I do have one way that will work for sure, but it requires making some new A/C lines, something I would rather not mess with. I'm trying to figure out a better way, something a little closer to what Incon used to do to mount the turbos, but we'll have to see how it turns out.
Cold side piping will also be custom, but the MAF will definately be blow through. And the seperate flows of the two turbos will likely come togather in the intercooler.
Fuel will be handled by a 255lph in-tank fuel pump (thanks newman!!) and some yet to be purchased 42pph injectors.
Engine tuning will be handled by a tweecer on the hardware side, and on the software side, I will be doing my own tuning under the watchful eye of a friend of mine that has loads of experience doing it (he has tuned a large # of cars that everyone here has heard of)
Wastegates will be the std integral T3 units for the time being. When things get stepped up tot he next level, I may step up to some Deltagate wastegates, along with some T3/T4 hybrid turbos (50 trim T4 cold side, and .63 a/r T3 hot side) but I won't be anywhere near that until a build a new motor w/ all of the expensive bits, because the two stock merkur T3's will support more power together than my stock 5.0 block will.
If you need any more info, toss me a PM or an email.
LocoChick, the tires are 275/40/17 Goodyear Eagle F1's. They are actually the OEM tire on the 2003 Cobra. The wheels were purchased slightly used, as the owner had replaced them with some different wheels, allowing me to get the deal I did on them.
