Hello....my name is frank................I am new to the scene. I have had mustangs all my life. I recently sold almost everything I had but my 2.3 turbo engine, tranny, and ford 9" for a fox because I know that I will get another one. I just wanted something a little more rare.
I took the money and bought me a combo package.....two t-types. One that is a roller that is beautiful with a cage and everything and the other is a running car but rough body. I was going to take the two to make one but I feel inclined to save the 87 t......it is rough but is a 11.50 car.......on race fuel, red 100 chip and drag radial.
The car has a 109, iron heads....some porting, steel center main caps, trw forged pistons, 42.5 lb injectors, translator with gm mas, 206/206 cam, something done to the rods, tb ported, 3" dp, huge front mount intercooler.......looks like a powerstroke intercooler, adjustable fpr, turbo is precision on turbine and garrett on compressor........not sure of the size....but the compressor housing has 60-1 on it and has a 3" inlet and 2" outlet.....he said something about it being a upgrades compressor???? It has several chips......red 93, 100. also have a sms alky set up with tt 93 chip for the alky.....not on car. Car has a janis tranny with 2600 or 2800 lock up stall.
I want to get into the 10's.....so I think that I had a decent foundation
also.....just ordered a rjc power plate with precision plenum and egt set-up....not installed yet.
My question is........the old owner used a old scan tool of some sort.....it was huge box....i guess from back in the day. I was thinking of buying the combo deal..........injectors 60's or 80's and a tt chip(the one to use with a wideband) and a powerlogger. what is a good set-up for tuning??? not sure that I want the scanmaster.......i like the powerlogger, with visual wideband and egt guages and maybe a audible knock device........or i have read about a system that is a engine saver of some sort that will shut it down if excessive knock.
I am new to the buick v6 turbo.......but I want to learn the car and tuning before I start getting crazy with the stroker engine, champion heads, etc, etc.....lol.
