Since Andy is unveiling his project, figured I would post up some progress pics of mine... Built and tigged all of the turbo piping (among other things) myself... 93 Mustang Notch 2004 5.3 motor with 317 heads Edelbrock Proflo intake Fast 92mm throttle body YatesEFI wiring harness Turbonetics TC78 Tial Wastegate and BOV Maxwell built TH400 with a RMVB and a TCI Brake AJE K Member Strange front brakes Aerospace Dual Caliper rears Strange Coilovers all around 9 inch Ford rear About done with all the fab work. Currently working on wiring. The car is headed to Midwest Chassis in a few weeks to have the cage finished and an anti-roll bar made. Will pull everything apart and have stuff powder coated/ceramic coated and painted while that is being done. Hoping to be out roaming the streets by springtime! When I got it...  Now...  Missing the throttle body coupler, changed throttle bodies and haven't got the new one yet.           |

So this statement still true? lol You got a wayyyyy bigger turbo then me... Budget or not... Dunno if its just me or what but i've always thought a 78mm is bigger than a 70mm, what do i know though?  Car is looking good though, very clean car! |

Don't know how much boost you plan on running, but it looks like you might have a problem keeping that coupler on the throttle body and the pipe going into it, maybe look for a bead roller to help seal the coupler. Good luck with the getting this finished up, definitely looks like you are doing work.

That cap on that fuel cell just looks crappy to me, but that's up to you if you wanna use it. I thought you were running 18's and 3 piece headlights. Those 1pc deals are kinda ricey. That's a power tour car with some vintage air!

I don't think those drag brakes are gonna do that well on the street. That just doesn't seem all that safe!
Randy Yates,
Wait, opps.

The car looks great, but(and its hard to tell in the picture) I think you have the wrong caster camber plates for coil overs.

Doug have you ever looked into a magnacharger for that thing as big as that intake is. You could fit the big Maggie on it, something to think about.
