Greg's Ford Mustang SVO Dyno

[cneace1]

@jabba12000 zx's blow I don't care how much u make at the wheel on pump gas. Stock to stock the z28s kill 300s and it doesn't even have to be a ls1 z, lt1s kill them too. Their heavier and lack the tq that the lt1 has. I could throw a bottle in my z28 and murder ur car with about a 80 shot

[brannon86svo]

i have a 86 svo, and i was wondering if you did anything else to the car to make that power? right now all i have is a 3" downpipe manual boost valve borla exhaust and i bumped it to 18 lbs of boost. what all do you have done? i'd love to run around the track with 300hp and torque at the wheels...

[benspilk90]

Love me some svo's, I was looking through craigslist the other day and some guy cannibalized one and put a 5.0 in it, made me want to punch a baby. I would kill for one of these cars, nothing against a 5.0 fox body, but these things are rare and should be kept 4 cylinder.

[humpme44]

Still a V8 jackass, read before you speak!!!!!

[leafsrule16]

looks like shit

[humpme44]

I have a 84 all org svo, It is #004 of all the svo's built that yr. 130k org miles, And will still burn a stock 5.0 all day long. Best 1/8 mile time w street tires on 13lbs boost.........8.80. And thats stick boost from factory. Its realy not a drag car, was made to road race. You can take a stock svo, spend about 4k, and it will run in the 10s or better. Haters beware of the svo. It bites back, Quick!!!!!!!!

[jabba12000]

@humpme44

IT seems to me the svo is just a 4banger that needs over 20psi to be anywhere near fast. My z makes more hp on stock boost (9psi) than this things makes at 22psi.

[Poik242]

@jabba12000 So, your 3.0L DOHC 24v V6 that was designed in 1987 makes more power than a 2.3L SOHC 8v iron block/iron head 4 cylinder that was designed in 1970? Well, it better. And my Camaro makes more power on 0psi boost than your Z makes at 9psi. Power is power.

[jabba12000]

@Poik242 Your camaro is a piece of shit and i hope it blows up like it will. Have fun pushing that heavy piece of shit scrap metal down the road. You know nothing about my z and if your camaro does make over 300 rwhp then we'll see how it does when i turn the boost up

[Poik242]

@jabba12000 I can't believe I am even replying to your retarded comment, but here we are. Wiki lists your 300ZX TT with a dry curb weight of 3,474lb. My '97 Z28 weighs 3,300 on a scale with a full tank of gas without me in it, and has 295rwhp, and is the slowest car I own. I'm sure you're the coolest kid in your high school with your Z32 though.

[jabba12000]

@Poik242

Ha i'm not in high school. And i'm happy to hear your camaro makes 295rwhp. i'm sure the 200 pound difference in the two cars wouldn't matter anyways considering how my Z makes just over 400rwhp on pump gas.

[leafsrule16]

@humpme44 Stock 5.0's are nothing ... I put a newer 5.0l 97 ford explorer motor with the gt40 heads in a 4 banger mustang once and it beat stock 5.0 mustangs like nothing..

[humpme44]

I have a 84 all org svo, curb weight w 10 gal of fuel.....2941 lbs. and all the svo's camr with 3.45 rear gear, no matter what yr it is. SVO CAl. has all the build sheets on-line.

[humpme44]

I have a 84 all org svo, curb weight w 10 gal of fuel.....2941 lbs.

[sockerdood11]

Cool

[kyleisadork12343]

how many psi is the turbo?

[orlandow2]

very nice

[super6wheelman]

What front lip/chin spoiler do you have on that?

[2001camarolover]

hahaha, 4 cylinder american muscle car what a embarrassment

[nikoinwinnipeg]

@2001camarolover I wouldnt talk the SVO's made more power in the 80's and early 90's than your 5.0's did

[2001camarolover]

@nikoinwinnipeg i dont like 5.0s! sorry

[02mustangboy]

@2001camarolover If you don't like 5.0s or Mustangs , stop watching our vids.And if you do watch, try controlling the stream of crap spewing from your cock-licker !!!

[brannon86svo]

@nikoinwinnipeg svo's weren't made in the nineties... lol. made from 84-86 consisting of 4 different model years. 84 85 851/2 and 86.

[LaochWins]

@2001camarolover Not as much of an embarrassment as your grammar.

[TurboBoostTurboBoost]

any chance you know where i can get the owner manuals/diagrams for my 1990 lx 2.3l hatchback?

[kingcobra101z]

Are you lying about the numbers? I only ask because stinger is running the same turbo and made more power at 18 PSI.

[TPena92]

@kingcobra101z stinger has a cam/megasquirt with 75lb injectors thats why he made more power than a stock setup like this...his project bolt on isnt necessarily just bolt on's

[kingcobra101z]

@TPena92 Actually I think he used a J3 chip. Any ways I didn't realize it was a mostly stock set up.

[nevets2847]

thats a hella of a car...where did u guys buy ther turbo from or was this the stock one that came with the turbo coupe

[otoke42o]

very nice svo i own one myself and god i love this car forever! what kind of rims do you have they look like poneys?

[mustang4sho]

so ahh what were the numbers for this nice svo?

[Faren254]

Is this motor running pump gas? 93?

[Poik242]

On this particular run it was 92 plus about 3 gallons of race gas (don't remember the octane). It made the same power on 92, the race gas was put in to try to clear up the top end, but it ended up being the ignition system so the race gas didn't change it.

[paynesalem17]

thats insane to get that much hp/tq pretty good bit higher than v8 more respect for 4 banger

[vbbeachkid18]

im not a fan of the 80s mustangs, but id love this one. anything that could produce 200 hp back in the 80s were amazing

[derrickjabs]

yeah what kind of spoiler is that it looks like its off a sn95 mustang

[lindaleparkrolo]

where can i get the chin spoiler from??? Anyone know i have a 85 svo mustang

[RTStabler51]

Its off a 03/04 Mach I and modified to fit the SVO

[Anlushac11]

1985 Cobra GT? Have to be Canadian. There was no US Cobra model in 1985.

Certified Accurate Truck scale reading on 1980 Mustang Ghia hatch was 2866lbs.

You gotta love the V8 idiots who arent capable of understanding why a SVO is special.

[fourthemasses]

I had an 84 (83-1/2) black svo back in 1990. Loved that thing. Loved that turbo spool-pull!

The looks that car got was too cool. No one knew what it was.

AWESOME!

Hard to find nice ones anymore.

[andyroo89]

Dude you are right on no one knew what it was I jsut found out about the SVO pretty cool 4 cyclinder ass kicking mustang seems like a sleeper to me.

[MattDJ2]

Total sleeper, no one expects my 84 to beat them off the line. Mine is so surprisingly fast! Ford makes some good stuff but they never stick with it for some reason...

[4x4Explorer]

man i love mustangs.. once iheard of the svo i was in love

[foxbodysalesdotcom]

Nice #'s bro, I gave you 5*'s

[Fojo093]

hey whats the curb weight of the svo? is it really 2,900 something pounds?

[94EglVisionTSI]

na ive heard there like 3200

[mrvelocity]

my xr4ti is about 2920 lb and my pops has a SVO which is about 2992 which is weird because when i drive it seems liter.

I think its because the suspension is stiffer and it has more low end pic up then the xr4ti.

[TPena92]

feels lighter because it has a stiffer suspension and.. it has solid rear 3:73rear so it takes off faster

[kingcobra101z]

290? That doesn't sound right.

[TurboStang351]

no it doesnt for a HX35 on 22psi, something is wrong

[aaron9696024]

290..... thats all..... i know a guy who gets 260 out of N/A 2.5

[super2ner]

lol out of a street legal 2.3 ford?

[JayGeePee1]

2.3L has potential, but I cant live without that 5.0 exhaust note...

[DieselMikey084]

1986 Ford Mustang EssVeeOh, kick ass car.

[sixety8msg]

Knucklehead0202 does your 5.0 have 4 wheel discs? Does it weigh 3100 pounds with a half tank of gas? Does it get good gas mileage? Does it have 5 lug wheels? Hurst short shifter? 4 Way shocks in the rear? 3.73 gearing ? All stock? I don't think so, and I know for a fact that with just heads and an exhaust you would be putting down about 240 to the wheels with the 5.0 it is only rated at 225 Crank horsepower stock, know your shit or shut up.

[glamis19]

hahahahah that is hilarious i wish someone would sell me an svo i have a 5.0

[Nymbler]

Infact, my 85' Gt Cobra does weigh 2900ish lbs (Specifications for the 1982, 1983, 1984, 1985, 1986 Ford Mustang: Curb-weight range, pounds: 2,568-2,636 (1982); 2,795-2,853 (1986) , gets decent gas mileage on the highway, no 5 lug..but oh well, hurst?.. yes, you can buy better shocks, 3.73 came stock on mine, and mine has a couple bolt ons. My cars rated at 210 HP/ 270 TQ... probably putting out 200 HP/ 250ish TQ due to age. Only 60,000km on it though :)

[knucklehead0202]

hope that didn't all cost a lot of money. svo's are cool but i pulled better numbers with a stock 5.0 with heads and exhaust. for the money, rather than the mileage, the 5-liter wins every time.

[comprepsvo]

what did you use for your chin spoiler? I have been looking all over for one I can fit one my SVO

[Jschre4041]

i want one soooo bad. Funny thing is when i was 16 this could have been my 1st car but i passed on it cuz I didnt know shit about cars or Mustang's.

[mazpon]

I always enjoy dyno pulls, but thats because they are normally ended with big numbers. Theres no numbers here to show what kind of fruit your labor has produced. Its like strip tease, all the goods are right there but you get nothing. How about some numbers?

[Barnhart08]

how about you read the description nub

[mazpon]

It only gives me peak numbers, doesn't even say what rpm it gets them at. Just a quick shot at the dyno screen and I'd be more than happy. nub

[Barnhart08]

Peak numbers would probably be the only thing you would look at anyways, its a 4 cylinder, im gonna go out on limb and say it peaks out at higher rpm's nub and seeing that its a 2.3L like the one I have in my truck, it probably peaks around 4500-5000 rpms, and the torque peaks down around 2200-2500 rpms.

[mazpon]

Its the area under the curve that gets you where you want to go and tells you how streetable the package is. I've seen 2.3s peak past 7,000 before, not streetable, but impressive numbers. So no, I don't just look at the peaks. Most people that are truely interested in this look at much more than the peak.

[Barnhart08]

I'm just saying because I'm a 2.3 drive myself, and its a ballsless pinto pusher lol

[gohardplayermade]

drill a hole on top of the t-4 and atach a half 1/2 inch to the exhaust and youll make easy 10s on 1/4 mile or lucky 8 n a half if installed right

[65ShelbyClone]

You appear to be even more ignorant than turbopoe. Ignorant or stupid, I can't tell exactly. A Holset is not a T4.

[marvgarr]

you dont know shit turbopoo ha the holset is the best thing there is for the 2.3 ford how do i know because i build them boost comes in when you want it to make power when you want it

[TURBOPOE]

wrong set up for that car! by looks it is set up for track not strip. the turbo spools way to late way way to late to be any good on the track. and you would need about a 1/2 mile drag to get this things power. if you have a svo set for track build the t-3 ,or run the IHI turbo with a fmi and you would toast this car.

[Poik242]

And you know this how? Full boost by 3500rpm, stop with your ignorant ramblings on things you know nothing about. It's a road race car, not a wimpy fast spooling auto-x mobile.

[KahnBB6]

Do a lot of SVO guys run the Esslinger aluminum head with a similar setup? I am really curious about that and the potential use of ball bearing turbos on these engines.

[TURBOPOE]

wow poik, brilliant, a fast spooling & wimpy auto cross car with a t3-t4 hybrid also a svo. full spool at 2800 rpm.i wish i would have asked you how to put a thumper on a four cylinder man i bet that car is fast. do you ever wish you would not have ruined it?

[brannon86svo]

@TURBOPOE your an idiot!!! low spooling turbo thanks to an amazing ford engineering special vehical operations team

[brannon86svo]

@TURBOPOE ok, for the first thing you said that was ignorant... the svo's were produced to compete with the bmx 3 series in road racing not straight line... and numero 2 i had an ihi on my 84 and swapped it for a holset hx35w turbo off of a diesel and i make 26 psi of boost and run 11.9 in the 1/4 and it spools around 3400 for full boost. please think and do research thank you very much.

[izzyiskool]

Nice but why in 4th gear?

[bradleyland]

Most people dyno in 4th gear because 4th is usually the closest to 1:1 ratio.

[akdster]

what BOV are you running? I like the sound. would like to put it on my Merkur.

[TurboStang351]

290 with a Holset?? my father has one on his turbo coupe and pulls 350, is it

[Defconfx]

so what were your numbers? how much boost? your the holset guy in the last vid correct?
