Took my daily driven crown vic to the track this last Friday to make a few passes to see what she was capable of, Just got the car together a few weeks ago and have been working on the tune on my dad's dyno. The kit was custom fabricated by him and myself. Quick run down on the car..

-100% stock 199k mile engine
-Hpx slot style maf
-eBay t67 turbo
-eBay water to air intercooler
-eBay bov
-turbonetics wastegate
-pypes m80 straight thru mufflers
-3.73s

The car hits right at 11lbs when it shifts and is driven on 93 octane. It made 333/367 on the dynocom dyno and weighed 4235 with me in it so 4070 without me. Here's a dyno video.

The weather couldn't have been more perfect but she definitely surprised me for what she ran on the 20" Fr500s with 315/35-20 nitto invos out back.

Here are a few pics of the car

Here is a video of one of my passes, I was spooling it up as much as I could at the line without it spinning too much. Taking it out this friday on a shorter 26" slick with a set of my fats and skinnies and see if I can't bust out some 12.50s. I took out a trans am, 60s big block Chevelle, and a coyote! She's far from done with appearance power etc but here's what I got so far let me know what y'all think!

That thing is awesome! I'd love to daily drive one of these, but only in that color. Best color imo.

Thanks, the turbo hasn't given any issues yet, it use to be on a 302 before this setup. My family has used numerous eBay turbos with no issues, most people that bash em don't even have any first hand experience with them.

how's the trans?

No different than before the turbo, about 20k miles akg I did the "J-Mod" to it so it's like it has a shift kit. Shifts real firm

That is a nice car no one will give a second look at until you drive around them.

I would rock that with factory steel wheels and plain 'ol hubcaps.
