well my time off at home flew by, as always. i got alot done though, i changed the coolant, installed a 180degree thermostat, put a check valve and hooked the catch can up, changed the intake filter, put on my new tires, and i put on the new black led tailights on, i also had to put my big ass wing back on, my trunk plugs were leaking a bit, i really dont care for that wing. im having a side skirt painted from where my friend dropped the jack too fast and it cracked the side skirt so i bought a new one, im also painting the fog light bezels red
ok i have a question.
i just installed my 3" 02 housing last week.
is there a gasket that meets the manifold and top of the 02 housing?
i put on the new one, but dont remember removing the old one.
if i did leave the old one will it be bad to half 2 gaskets?
i am heading to the rodruns next month and dont want any issues while i am there.
but i am also not wanting to spend 3 hrs checking it since i dont have air tools.

Yes my other car is a Honduh... but it's reliable (haha).
so by putting on the one that came with the 02 housing, i am fine.
i don't need to worry i double gasketed it. lol
there was no gasket from what i heard if one is installed and your manifold gets too hot like the stock one does it will burn the gasket out and then you will have a loose O2 and a bad exhaust leak
whats happening guys! guys im so excited this is like the best day of my life well not really but close, i just bought a agp50 trim, it came with everything ex mani, dump tube, 02 housing, wastegate, it was slightly used but it looks great not a bad price of $1100 and thats shipped to my door. its a pity i cant install it yet, i have to get a computer and a few other things, its going to be awhile yet, but im going to sell my fb turbo and ex mani, and the agp wastegate i think, any of you guys will have first dibs on them when the time comes. well ive got to head to indianapolis, you all take care...later

you will have to make one or have it made plus its gotta be small enough to fit in with all new restrictions
and good luck with your turbo its a great turbo but i think it just will be a little to slow of a spool for what your looking for my car is killer on the hwy and awesome on a dyno but i wouldnt have it for much other than that its great for gas milage too
it just takes a lot to spool it then once it is your tires go up in a cloud of smoke

what other mods do you have on yours besides the turbo, how much boost are you feeding it, your using a dtec correct, im guessing your using 750cc injectors

right now im pushing 21psi with a dtec and 675cc injectors with more than enough FP to support over 440hp ive had it at 23psi and made the same hp as 21 did with just a hair more timing i put down 331hp on the mustang dyno in black mountain which reads about 12% lower than a avg. dynojet so im putting around 370 down to the ground with almost no tune i couldnt pull any fuel because it would jack my timing way high and i would get kr
but at 370hp and 370tq i have very little trouble lighting my 225 tires up at the top of 3rd when its cold im waiting on my SCT pro kit to show up so i can get my car tuned in and get the AFRs out of the low 9s
ill be well in the 4s when its tuned as for mods i got to many to list
750s i wouldnt use with a dtec without a returnline or some higher class form of fuel management SCT/AEM or one of the new ways to control timing and fuel
i wont ever use a dtec again its perfect for stock/sst/e1/stg3 turbo but its crap for anything bigger it took me about a week to find that out playing with mine no returnline = hell with big turbo and dtec

also after looking at your mod list ditch the plugs you got and go for some NGK4306s the plugs you got will start getting spark blow out really bad when you go big turbo you will flow more at less boost so it will just cause problems and what kind of txs bov you got?

ok thanks for the info, is yours the .63a/r, im going to use the sct, how much did your racers package cost, you get 3 tunes with those, who is tuning it for you, and where did you go to get it, i know trudynosports.com has them, they are in conover, nc
