Hi All!
Just joined the forums! Like the title says, tragedy has struck my 02 2V. She went KABOOM big time so now I am trying to bring her back to life. Sorry this is sooo long but I am having fun with it!!!
Lets start by getting acquainted with my build so far:
4.6L 2V
2.1L Kenne Bell supercharger - 9psi (intercooled!!)
Flowmaster exhaust with H-pipe (no cats )
SVE red brake upgrade kit (LMR)
Short shifter (previous owner special)
AEM boost & Wideband
Boost-a-pump
Kenne Bell 90mm Mass Air Meter
75mm Throttle Body
36lb injectors
160 degree thermostat
one step colder plugs
flywheel and clutch upgraded by previous owner, he said stage 2 but he had no details
Lowered on springs (another previous owner special)
Everything else is stock or I am forgetting it.
Now for my goals:
12-14psi from the 2.1L
hoping for 500+hp
budget is less than 10k
Build Progress:
Supercharger is on its way to Kenne Bell now to get looked through and all seals replaced (check out the pictures of the supercharger belly pan!!! WOW!!!)
Getting a motor from Promar in Paterson NJ. Fully forged internal build, oversized valves, arp everything, and boost cams! This gonna cost me about 7k but they pick the motor up and deliver it for free. If you have better/cheaper ideas please share!
Need Help!:
Best flywheel/clutch?? I was recommended spec stage 3+.. Looking at this one but its out of stock rn: https://lmr.com/item/SPC-SF483/Spec-Mustang-Stage-3-Clutch-86-01-SF483
Engine management?? I am clueless here... Thinking this will work: https://lmr.com/item/SCT-7015/SCT-Power-Flash-X4-Tuner-Mustang-96-14-7015
Assuming I need an injector upgrade to hit my 500ish number. Was recommended 60lb injectors but not sure what brand to go with! HELP!
Exhaust time! Thinking of this combo going to my flowmaster mufflers:
Longtube headers: https://lmr.com/item/PAC-703230/1996-04-46L-Mustang-Gt-2V-Pacesetter-Long-Tube-Headers
Mid-pipe: https://lmr.com/item/PAC-821146/1996-04-Mustang-Pacesetter-Off-Road-X-Pipe-for-Long-Tubes
I am happy to be part of the club! My apologize if there is a build like mine that I haven't come across! Please link if so, I am a good reader.
Any comment or suggestion is more than welcome!! Lets have some fun spending my money!! haha I do all the work myself other than the engine build/tune. If anyone knows a good tuner close to Orange County NY I would love to give them some business. It has been horrific trying to get in contact with tuners....
