My Gradual Build (Quest for a Powerful Street GT500, always hungry for more)

[FordTT500]

Headers to turbos are completely done. Down pipes are done routed under the headers and through the steering shaft. Driver side is transitioned to oval to clear the steering shaft. All connected by v-band for easy removal and installation & Reduced exhaust gaskets also.

Awesome fab work.

Amazing truly a dream build

 

[FordTT500]

My new Forward facing SC eliminator intake top hat with a circle throttle body flange. I went with circle so I can use VanJen clamps.

 

[FordTT500]

Hot sides completely done with Wastegates and rerouted dump tubes attached to go out the exhaust. Throttle body and manifold are done, just waiting on the cold side pipes to be fabricated to lead up to the throttle body.

Wow that looks like a work of art...

Did you cerama-coat the exhaust? And are they going to wrap it?

No, the manifolds and the rest of the hot-side just finished being fabricated. I haven't coated it at all yet. There are a few photo shoots lined up and there is a magazine interested, so my fabricator wants to leave it raw for now until it can all be showcased. I prefer coating over wrapping it. There is a local place called polydyne that I might use. For the time being I plan to cover certain parts of my engine bay with DEI heat resistant material in the areas I plan to protect from heat. Looks like this:

 

[FordTT500]

Charge pipes and a majority of the turbo kit is done.

D3PE Catch Can. They will go into productions with these high performance catch cans soon.

Looking good bro. Very nice.

Thanks man. How is your car coming along? Did you get things figured out?

 

[ironpeddler]

Yeah man, just going to leave it compound boosted for now, obviously has it's drawbacks as you well now. Still crazy the way it is. We will see what I do next, not sure yet.

I know I have asked before, what are your tire/suspension mods? You can PM if you rather do that.

Looks awesome, very nice fab work and the C Can looks killer. I see you went with the Metco fittings. Going to test & tune tomorrow night at BMSP to see how my sons single 5.0 does. Been a while so i'm excited. GL with this build, awesome job....:thumbsup:
