Turbo 4.0 V6 Mustang vs Vette, Olds, Mustang, Datsun @ LVD test & tune

Got a bug creating that little fun factor vid and finally got off my ... and went to the track. The Wolf is in the 12s! I ran a C5, A Buick I think, A stock 5.0 Notch and an all out Drag Datsun 510.

hey man i got a 05 v6 and i wanted to turbocharge it for 4 grand..... but its an automatic so i want a 5 speed or a 6 speed that will hold up to the power... i found a 1997 cobra transmission that is a 5 speed and i was wondering if that would hold up to the power of 400 horsepower or if it will even fit... PLEASE RESPOND

@TheMarschmallow It will fit with an adapter if the bolt pattern is of the 97 is the same as a 2005+ 4.6 5 speed. Your auto would handle the power as is, just slap in a slightly higher stall and you're golden.

hp and tq numbers at what psi?

[forced4motorsports]

Then... 330 / 430 TQ.. I can only guess because I was only running 9.5-10 PSI. It was tuned @ 13.4 & put down 386/460. I was still running the stock T5 trans so didn't want to push my luck. Tune was good down low but timing was 10* @ peak torque and 13 past 6K. Probably saved my trans - at least until later in the year when I blew 3rd into shrapnel.

Check the latest dyno vid and track runs. BTD is a 12.17 @ 114. Best to date with a bad clock - no slip - using video time laps 11.94 @ 113.88

any stiffening of the chassis or suspension yet? you seem to squat quite a bit off the line, stiffer springs, shocks and better overall chassis stiffening would really help your E/Ts

[forced4motorsports]

Quite a bit different now. Anti squats on the lowest level, Koni adjustables on firm, and bias ply 27X10.5s. Enough squat to plant, and no hop. Check the latest two videos; the 2010 brawl and the last run of 2010. I'm launching off the neutral limiter (5500) with no hop and little spin. Best to date is a 12.17 @ 114.

@forced4motorsports  thanks

NOPE!!! NISSAN POWER!!!!!

[ADD8oi]

@forced4motorsports very very nice, the best my old 6er had done was a 11.94 at milan raceway....these cars are very underrated, hopefully you break into the 11s this summer!

[forced4motorsports]

Thanks, This is an old one though. I've run a best of 12.1 with quite a few mid to low 12s on the way there. If I hadn't screwed up my burnouts and missed third on my last run of the season I probably would have managed a high 11.9X. I'm hoping to run the car a lot more than 4 times for the 2011 season.
