2.3 Turbo mustang, No Hands

[mitch9521]

what kinda hp are you making? do you know?

[SleeperInc]

@mitch9521 In this video? maybe 150hp, it was only 8 psi. Cars somewhere around 230-260hp right now. Just breaking the motor in still :/

[mitch9521]

@SleeperInc shit, 150hp isnt too bad, wonder if I could get that with bolt-ons....

[SleeperInc]

@mitch9521 My motor stock had about 190hp ish, just tuned it down because the transmission was hurtting and I was DD'ing the car at the time

[mitch9521]

@SleeperInc ahh, okay, good to know :D

[TurboBoostTurboBoost]

Is that the original 2.3L mustang engine? i hear the pistons can't handle the extra boost so people buy the engines from turbo mekur's or whatever... I'd like to turbo my 90 lx but not sure if i want to dual turbo the 4 cylinder or swap a 302CI and single turbo... [i'd end up dual turboing the 302 also]

[Kawasakiforlife7]

@TurboBoostTurboBoost you cant use a orginal 2.3 mustang engine, you'd blow it up in a second

[Jrm4cam]

Do any of your gauges work? Lol.

[94STANG562]

gayest video burnout or sumthing

[wuano1989]

those he have the police intercepter dash it 180

or is it the saleen

[Localdrummerweb]

@wuano1989 its in KPH NOT MPH..thus why it says 180

[bwbrownie447]

did you have to change the computer and the wiring harness because i was told that i have to change all of that with the swap i did?

[SleeperInc]

You don't have to remove the wiring harness, but you do have to add a few wires and re-pin it and get a computer + a VAM from the turbo car.

[bwbrownie447]

i was wndering since you dont have to take out the wiring harness that what wird do you have to add on.

[SIIHP69]

DUMB FUCK!!!

[TPena92]

what computer are you using and what vam?

[SleeperInc]

@TPena92 PK1 and a small VAM

[diegotutiven]

That's what I thought because in US is MPH

[diegotutiven]

can you hit the top speed ? 180 ?

[brace06]

kilometers per hour its a canadian car

[greeleykid]

every country except america uses kilometers per hours..so it could be from anywhere but the USA

[juneya04]

I hope your not serious

[brace06]

was the t5 transmission used in the 4 cylinders too or is it another transmission?

[SleeperInc]

It was used on 87-90 2.3 mustangs and 86-88 turbo coupes

[georgespazzz]

im looking at a 86 mustang with a 4 cylinder... it is a manual... are they fast?

[SleeperInc]

Nope, no even fast at all. Turbo that bitch ASAP!

[MrSpazz08]

considering the fact that its a manual, i think it will give it that little extra

[SleeperInc]

It was auto in the video... manual now and the engine had 3 spun bearings...

[3FlipScoOp]

might i add fun in the rain lol

[IXXBC]

Hey man, how's it going?

I have an 89 2.3L hatchback. Probably almost like what your car was like before the swap.

I am interested in doing this, because my transmission is still good but I need a new clutch.

Are you using the stock tranny?

Also, how hard was it to make the upgrade? I have a lot of junkyards near by, I am sure I can find a TC or something.

What other extras did you have to put it in?

[blacktop2001]

OH OH thats km/h not mph

[blacktop2001]

speedo not right?

[SleeperInc]

Yeah, speedo was right then, its now off 10-15km/h due to the manual transmission swap

[bshipc11]

what a turd

[SleeperInc]

There is a door around here... FIND IT AND DON'T USE YOUR FUCKED UP HEAD

[dustinwaller87]

hey did u put a 2.3turbo engin in ther..or did u just turbo charg the 2.3 engine??

[SleeperInc]

Yup, swapped in a 2.3 turbo from a 87 merkur

[TurboStang351]

ahahaha i was just staring to think 140+MPH i was like no wayy then i realized its in KM

[magnificent10304]

SVO mustangs and Thuderbird turbo coupes had a top speed of 145mph, most of the dash readings go to 80mph like mines, but there are some with a 140mph cluster, an i just read your name so i'm guessin you already know this an me writing this was a complete waste of both yours an my time lol, well if ya didn't know now ya do

[orbitofdoom16]

my mostly stock 2.3 mustang got radard at 110mph on the free way. I got a break cause my speedo wasnt working properly

[TurboStang351]

lol i'm pretty aware of that, growing up my father had a handful of turbo 2.3 car's. i just swapped in a 145 cluster in my turbo 2.3 vert, once the needle passes 85 it was a guessing game after that LOL

[dustinwaller87]

nice wat kinda modds do u have??

[SleeperInc]

I have a rebuilt .60/.48 T3 running 8 psi, bobs log manifold, PK1 computer, small VAM, #35 injectors, 2.5" straight exhaust, turbo coupe FMIC, cone air filter, and a failing A4LD.

[2point5turbostroker]

u should turn the boost up to stock wich i think was around 15 psi.

[SleeperInc]

Depends what motor your talking about, some had 12, others had 14.5
