Much excite!

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

-FP HTA Green with ported turbine housing and 19psi WGA
-Cobb turbo inlet hose for 3" anti-surge covers
-Cobb XLE BPV

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

You ordered these?

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Si. Cobb had it all in-stock, but has to take the turbine housing back to FP for porting this week, then next week I'm going to take it for ceramic coating. Installation and tune is probably 3-4 weeks out since I'm also waiting on a special coupler for my LICP that's on back-order. Not a big deal, I'd prefer to not be tuned when it's 100F+ anyway. Yesterday morning at 10:30 when PlanoEvo dyno'd the temp in there was already 102.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Awesome, should be a sweet setup! You should've waited for the release of the BB FP turbos but running them on 93 oct you won't be stressing the JB anyway :)

They announced yesterday that next week all the 8/9 turbos are will be BB on their website.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

It's not sounding good for the X turbos, that's what I was initially waiting for. FP told Cobb it won't be happening this year. Something to do with the test turbos not working as hoped so they're going back to the drawing board. CBRD won't do BB X turbos either, but will for the 8/9 guys. I tried and tried again :) I've been talking to FP, Cobb, SpecOps, and CBRD about it. But, if by some miracle they do come out within the next few weeks, I'll have them exchange my center-section.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Hmmm, interesting...stupid X turbos. Maybe I will do a custom mani to fit the 8/9 turbos :)

I think your setup will be solid regardless, can't wait to see the results.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

I'm shooting for 400/400 on Cobb's Mustang, we'll see if the car has it in it with the stock cams!

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

I don't think you'll have a problem hitting those numbers, good luck!

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Just getting ready for the next round of mods...

A lot of locals have been having spark plug failures with one taking out a piston in the process. It seems like they're all happening in the 30-35k miles window, I just hit 25k miles today so I figure now's a safe time to replace them, especially with the new turbo going on soon. To the non-X guys who notice the price of the plugs, we don't have a whole lot of choices yet (three to be exact). Factory (~$60/set), NGK Laser Iridium (same plugs, different box, a few bucks cheaper), or HKS Racing (~$100/set).

I also changed my transfer case fluid and rear differential fluids (yes, two separate fluids for the rear differential) again today. The old fluids only had 11k miles on them and were done about 6 months ago, but I figured no harm in frequent changes, especially considering how nasty it looked already :)

FP should have my Green done in a few days so then I'll be bringing that in for ceramic coating, installing my DW800 injectors, and putting on the 3" Depo LICP.

Ported goodness:

Now it's off to get coated tomorrow!

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

That look awesome dude! We should probably take my MAP o2/dp and bolt it on just for the hell of it, LOL! :D

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Very nice.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Looks real good!

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Added ceramic coating to the above ported turbine housing:

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Oh yeah, and today I also got that Depo 3" LICP installed. I am actually very impressed with it, perfect fitment even with the stock airbox bracket (my AFE intake heatshield mounts to it)! This is one of only two LICP's with confirmed fitment with the stock airbox bracket in place, and the only one larger than 2.5". PPI's 2.75" may have also fit, but it's not confirmed and they said they've never tested the fitment with anything but their own brand intake.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

tits!

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

SPC greatness FTW!

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Change in plans, the Green has been sold... :)

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Ohhh shit.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Damn dude!! Looks like it's coming along nicely! Can't wait to see the end results.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Boo to this update. Nobody likes a tease Kracka!

I like that coating a lot. Do they do gold? :D

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

No idea on colors, but they have catalogs full of product, some of which they had to get a special certification to buy, so they could probably get whatever you need taken care of.

As for my update, I'll post pictures when it arrives next week ;)

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

I can't wait. ;)

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

ur still a bastard.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Indeed :)

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Selling my DW800's and getting ID1000 fuel injectors instead.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

ID1000's, very good choice. ID ones are the bees knees.

I'd probably do the FIC1100's myself though, cheaper.

So you are hitting the dyno tomorrow then?

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

hmmm, i wonder if they are enough?!!!

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

He is on pump gas, he will be fine.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

ID is a local TX company based not far from here, they're in-stock and won't change the timeline at all (install/tune tomorrow), easy choice for this situation. I just made this decision late yesterday afternoon.
800's would have been enough, it wasn't larger size I was after with this move.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Bah, the DW's aren't as bad as people say, especially the 800's haven't seen many problems with them at all ;)

You didn't answer the real question, you hitting the dyno tomorrow?!

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

After getting some news yesterday, then talking to a few people, it was the easy choice. An engine failure is not something I'm willing to risk, especially over only a few hundred extra dollars. Plus the extra capacity to support E85 if I ever decide to make the conversion will be convenient.
Yes sir! Install and tune tomorrow :D

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

What is this that just arrived?!?!

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Muhahahaha!!

dew want!!!

I was asking about the injectors because i was unsure if you were on corn. Also I'm aware that ID1000s are a superior injector, they are the bees knees!

I don't like any DW products, haven't really seen anything solid from them as far as pumps or injectors go.

How much psi, you looking to run with this thing?

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Probably right about 26-27 peak then tapering down like I am with my stock turbo.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

mmmm purdy!

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Change in plans... :(

No tuning this weekend, someone at Cobb had, from the sounds of it, a pretty serious personal emergency so I'm trying to just remember that life is obviously far more important than cars and not be too upset about the delay. I may still get the turbo installed this weekend and get it tuned one evening next week after work. Delays won't be any longer than a week...

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Can't you tune it yourself? I figured the dyno was just for numbers?

Good luck to whoever is having issues, but hey now you can take time to make everything extra pretty with your car!!
