Wanted to let fans of twin setups know about this deal so I started a new thread. Irecently had the new Team Performance Products "Heritage Twin Turbo System" installed on my stock '07 GT. This kit comes with two Garrett dual ball bearing 54 mm turbos which are mounted down around the transmission. A carbon fiber belly pan comes with the kit to keep water and road debris out of the air cleaners. The only thing we added to the car was a single GT supercar fuel pump. We only had time for two dyno pulls before we had to leave for Florida so the shop made sure it was nice and safe for the initial outing at FFW Orlando. When I say my car is stock.....I mean 100% dead bone friggin' stock as delivered from Ford. Richard Lelsz of Strictly Performance did the initial tune. We are at 11.5 A/F ratio, 10 degrees timing, and 8 pounds of boost. At Orlando the car ran a best of 11.75 @ 123.58 mph in a 3865 pound Mustang GT. We need to work on the tune a little to get more low speed power but a converter is essential for drag racing. For street driving.....not needed. Turbos come up on boost around 2500 rpm and pull all the way through the traps. Idrove the car home from Strictly and in Orlando to get the D/R's mounted. Unless you put your foot down you don't even know the turbos are there. Smooth as a stocker. Lots of fun when you find a freeway on-ramp though.

I feel that with a converter and some additional tuning we should be able to lay down a solid 11-teen or 11-twenty pass at close to 125 mph. Maybe even a "10"! Then drive it out the gates with the A/C and stereo going while getting 24 mpg on the way home. Pricing on the kit has not been finalized yet but should be soon. I'll have pictures of the setup on my car in a few days. Team Performance has the car on the way to their shop in California so we can install a converter and roll bar. Maybe gears.

Man I'm glad to see you on this site!

These guys here really could use another knowledgeable tech man. This site has a large member base and weed through the BS posts and there's a lot of good questions and potential customers here.

Big welcome SD!! and I hope you hang around.[sm=icon_cheers.gif]

That's awsome!!! Any pricing on this kit yet?

Or you could soil the track with motor oil. That's a lot of power you're making to trap 123 in an auto. 10* max timing? Are you sure that's correct? That isn't even close to what the big 3 twin screw companies are running for timing. I assume that timing equals power with a turbo just like a supercharger. So how much HP?

Thanks! I've browsed here a few times but never really had anything substantial to add since you were here. Looks like a great place!

Pics will be coming in a few days. I was too busy this past week and weekend to even grab a camera. I asked the guys at Team Performance to shoot a few pics of the install on both my car (automatic) and Rick Head's Shelby GT (five speed) so we can get them posted. Pricing.....yet to be finalized but I had the Sales Manager with me this weekend at Orlando and he kept saying, "$7000.....I want it no higher than $7000." Once it is established there will be pricing on their website.

I'm dead sure on the timing. I had another SCT tuner look at the file and from 3000 rpm on up every cell says the timingis 10 degrees. Pretty basic tune but it was all we could get done in the time we had. I also feel that is one of the reasons we won't be kicking rods out of this thing anytime soon. The dyno at Strictly Performance showed 460 hp and 489 tq. Richard was pretty stunned as well with the power at that timing level. He has tuned some of the meanest 4V Cobras in the country so he knows power when he see it. I feel that as long as we keep the rwhp down under 500 we should be good for the season. My sponsor is already talking about a built engine for next year and turning up the boost.

SDdon't forget to mention the fine work Matt did getting that thing in there!

We met over at Strictly when they finished your car. Actualy the car had beenfinished a little earlier I think we were finishing a case then. I've got the blue 2007 GT with the cobra motor in it (sig pic).

Sorry I had to leave early that night. Glad to hear the car ran well for you!

ShadowMaster

Absolutely! Matt is one of the best in the business. Typically I wouldn't let anyone but Greg Flatt touch any of my cars but Matt and Richard did a great job on this install. Everyone at Strictly was cheering when I called Richard on Saturday after the initial 11.84/122 pass. I can tell when Richard is excited and when he is B/S'ing. He was excited about this deal.

Can't wait to get the car back from California so we can get the guages and some other goodies in the car.
