Hey everyone, figured i'd post a thread with some pictures of my recent upgrades done from this summer right before RMRW (rocky mountain race week)
Basic rundown of the car:
4.6 cobra engine, weisco pistons, arp throughout
holley efi
s480 single turbo
SRA
4r70 with mvb ptc converter
Power steering/powerbrakes/power everything/AC retaining car
Anyways, put car onto the lift to do some general maintenance before race week, ended up finding all sorts of boost leaks/cracks in welds on the on3 single turbo kit I had been runnning for years, decided to pull off the entire hotside and upgrade the turbo to an s480 from the 76/75 that was on the car, upgraded to some custom hotside, moved the intercooler/radiator forward to help everything fit. Super happy with the upgrades and how well the turbo kit did. Getting a new converter for the car (one in it was slipping 18%) so only ended up running an average of 9.5x at 147ish mph spinning it to 8200rpm at 8000da average so happy but lots of room for improvement and will update this post soon, hoping to break into an 8 this year with boost/spray
Thinking upgrades for this winter need to be a sullivan intake manifold upper/lower and some Todd Warren custom spec'd cams to get this thing really singing for me
