Looks good, clean car, too!
What are your goals with the G50?

 

[prostreetdsmx1]

looks good man. Get us some better pics though!!

 

[slvrDsm]

Thanks all.. Ya I will get better pictures up. These were from my phone so they were kinda fuzzy.. Ill take some with my Girls Digital Camera..

My goals.. Ok I had my evo3 setup on there.. It was a nice set up.. Tuned nice.. Pulled very nice.. I just needed more up top.. I put down 265hp an 250tq on Full Functions mustang dyno.. I will be taking the car back to them for another tune next month with this new setup.. I will be happy with 320 to 350hp on there dyno.. Its not a daily driver thanks to my bucket corolla .. only take it out on weekends.. occasionally on a nice day..

Ok.. here are some more pictures of the install.. There will be more as the process goes on.. the last picture is the set of rims i will be installing back on the car as soon as its running.. Stay tuned for more..

What you guys think?? Thanks all!

Eric

just an update.. More pictures will be up Thursday.. thats when I'm receiving the rest of the parts. Sorry for the wait for those who are interested..

Thanks all

looks good! Do you think you will be dynoing the car anytime soon like to see what she puts down

 

[slvrDsm]

Thanks man.. As far as the dyno.. I think it will be around end of may.. like 23 or so.. Ill be taking it back to Full Function Tecnology.. thats where I had it tuned with the 16G setup.
This time ill have a AFPR 1000s and aG50.. Along with the race gas for a extra Map

Looking for oh should i say '' hoping '' for at least 350 on there dyno.. Ill keep you posted bro

 

[93_tsi_fwd]

Very Nice. How much did that turbo run you? Im also looking to upgrade my 16g.

What tuning tool do you have? ECMlink?

 

[slvrDsm]

Thanks bro. I got the turbo off of the ECMtuning site form I very cool guy for 540 shipped! brand new never installed.. came with all fittings as well.. And yes I am running ECMlink.. I will never run anything else

 

[thilaksharma]

im sure g50 can push 350 on a mustang
btw , can i know wht kind of spray/coat did u do on that o2 housing ;D

 

[silverbullett]

Nice build bro, hope to see it soon.

 

[slvrDsm]

I sure hope so and that would be VHT Flame proof paint.. You can get it from local Kragen or Autozone.. its about 8 dollars.. but looks very nice

Nice build bro, hope to see it soon.

Ya.. Im gonna try and get it out to the May 10th Union City meet.. that will be a good test drive to make sure she is running good

 

[1997_GSX]

Your gonna love it, I have my PTE 54 Trim 3231RE Dual BB and LOVE IT, It pulls pretty hard for me only running 14 PSI.

Thanks bro.. Nice setup as well I plan on running 21psi tuned with my ECMlink on pump 91.. I will also be bringing my 110octane to Make a race map tune at 24-25psi as well

Ill be keeping you all posted!!

Hey noticed you kept your stock fan.. Is there any clearence issues with it?? I mite just have to keep mine there ..

Ok.. So it runs!!! it runs great guys..

Ill have more pics up tomorrow of it all finshed up.. I was unable to Install the Fuel Feed line Upgrade kit due to my DUMB@$% breaking the Alumanium Fitting included it the kit

I will be ordering AFPR and FIC 950's Next week.. There is one thing I am wondering. Ok since It is a bigger turbo could this be the reason im idleing lean.. My a/f guage is not cycling at all? Im on stock computer and injectors just for now thanks guys

Eric

 

[hereitcomes]

do you have an AFPR on there now?

 

[slvrDsm]

No.. not at the moment.. Im ordering it today. should see it next friday

And i found the reason my A/F guage was saying lean.. hahaha i had the conector plugged into the wrong one! its cycling good now.. running very smooth

Just got back from the first test drive.. Car runs great.. no leaks install went very smooth.. Pays off to just take your time and not rush things..

Now more waiting.. For the rest of my parts.. Soon will be getting it tuned By Sean At Full Function... IM JUICED!!

Here are some pictures of after the Turbo install

350hp should be well within range of your setup!

 

[slvrDsm]

Thanks man.. Im hoping 350 at least.. Going from 265 on a mustang dyno to 350 thats what im looking forward to!

PM sent!

 

[brainlessher0]

Goodluck, Looking forward to seeing the actual numbers

 

[slvrDsm]

Ok guys. I started my car today.. drove to work.. runs great.. then when i get in it to move it.. Its running very ruff at idle.. almost like if you were unplug the MAF... the vacume is around 10in when i wiggle the plug on the maf it will start to idle normal.. but when i rev it up it sounds like the BOV is like not opening up or somethin

Anyone have any input on what the prob might be..?? it runs fine now... its only sometimes it does it...thanks guys

Eric

 

[juanpac0]

Unplug the MAF and check the actual plug, and then try to start the car and see if there's a difference when you idle it with the maf unplugged, if not then you have either a bad maf or a bad connection leading to the maf.


Car looks nice man! Really coming along well. I think you could've gotten that 350 out of the E316g though, but now you can look forward to spinning through 3rd too.

I'm aiming for 350 on my 16g + meth, should be fun.

 

[daren_p]

Check the MAF plug, they seem to get dirty from time to time. Unpluging & pluging back in a few times usually helps to clean the contacts, or the best method is to pic up some contact cleaner from (from an electrical supply store, etc) & give it a spray, while pluging/unpluging. Also just to make sure, you did a boost leak test after the install?

Setup is looking good, sure you'll like the new turbo. The evoIII is a great street turbo but I didn't think it was the best turbo choice on a fwd with its instant on/off boost. I defently liked the slower, more linear spool of my FP3052 much better when the car was fwd.

 

[slvrDsm]

HAHA thanks bro..

As far as 350 on the 16g not to sure.. sean at full function said around 270 on there dyno is where most 16gs end up.. (I put down 265) but could not get that much timing in it for some reason.. was dissapointed in the #s but soon as i hit the freeway home and WOT but im sure with meth on a dynajet i could have put down 350. but No matter what happenes mustang dyno says 270 dynapack says 310 this that.. still gonna run the same time

I look at it this way.. before 265hp on mustang dyno.. Gonna be going to the same dyno and if i put down 350hp thats 85hp increase which will for SURE feel on the butt dyno haha

Right on man.. Will give that a shot.. and I have not did a boost leak test yet.. Which i will do before even tryin to tune it..

An the FP3052 was the turbo i was saving for .. just came across this turbo brand new never installed for 540 shipped with fittings.. so i went for it..

 

[Killa_dsm]

Looks great man. And glad to see your feeding the turbo from the head instead of the oil filter housing. Good luck with hitting 350, I'm sure you can do it! Keep us posted.

Yes it does! And reading the other posts i think 350 is a nice goal. On a similar flowing turbo, a stock bottom end and just 264/272 cams and a tune, I made the 332/312 in my avatar on pump gas and very consirvative timing at only 20psi. I was running methanol injection but had not learned to take advantage of it fully at the time and could have done probably better if the tune was geared to use the meth/water mix and had the right nozzle on it. (i needed more nozzle at the dyno and didn't even have my tune leaned out to be a correct AFR when the water was spraying, It was set at 11:1 on gas alone and then i just dumped the meth in on top of it. I couldn't monitor knock at the time and was very unsure about the W/A setup and that's why my tune was as conservative as it was
