Car's getting wired up now, hoping to schedule it for a remote tune with an Aussie tuner once I have oil pressure. Already got a hub dyno and a wheel dyno available to tune on, just gotta see what's open/available when the tuner's available - have messaged with Jet about having him do the honor. I stuck with the stock turbo for now, but we used a twin scroll v-band in/out manifold. Once it's sorted and driving for a while, I can swap out the turbo for a Gen2 GTX3576 or 82 and see if the exhaust manifold's choking it out. If so, then I'll cut off the twin scroll, go open manifold v-band, and stuff a G series or an EFR on it at that point (or who knows what'll be available in 1-2 years). Everything else is there for supporting upwards of 500kw (ID 1300x injectors, oil pump/plate, valve springs, Atomic HD timing chain, upgraded dampener, Haltech Elite PNP, TH400 trans, 8.8 rear end, Weldon 2035 pump and goodies, 4" downpipe and exhaust) which is my ultimate end-all goal. Should be a sporting good time in a '65 Mustang coupe. Figured I'd give an update on it as it has been a while since I've posted, and I see it's picking up activity again upwards of 2 years later. As for the one previously asking where I am, I'm around Ann Arbor, MI!

Of course. Look more into the gtx3576, find the FB post/comment that pointed me at the efr setup initially. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1866841693364779&id=332976876751276 Nizpro Turbocharging This turbo has very similar response to the stock small FG XR6 turbo while being able to produce 80-100kw more power. The only turbo that we have tested that can out perform that is a BW EFR 8374 however it is more complex to fit. I'll keep looking into the GTX setup in the mean time. Thanks!

So looking at the GTX3576R gen 2 I'm assuming I should go reverse rotation? Or since I'm doing custom manifold it doesn't really matter? Just stick with the biggest a/r turbine side?

Yes, sorry, the Boundary stuff is the plate and gears. This stuff to be exact. I got the idea from an Aussie tuner page saying the ultimate setup was an EFR 8374. Of course, now I can't find it to get the name of the shop. Maybe I should go with that? Or do you think the spool of a Gtx3576r is still quite superior and I should make it happen anyways? I thought t4 twin scroll would be better than a t3 open for response? I also do want to make some power, 4-500 rwkw.

Hey there. I'm in the States and am working on throwing an FG into a 65 Mustang coupe. Shock towers mean I'm stuck building a custom turbo manifold, so I don't have the GTX limitation of staying with the stock manifold. Goal is to have a responsive throttle setup, something that's fun at a road course and on curvy streets. Something that can do a 10.5 402m drag run. I'd rather not replace pistons/rods/etc for now. For conversation sake, let's say I have a 2013 270T. In/around it is: Boundary oil pump, anti-cavitation plate ARP head studs, Atomic washers Atomic valve springs HD timing chain, guides Atomic spec'd balancer ID1300x injectors, Weldon 2035 pump Driven by Haltech ElitePro PnP Currently I'm on a borrowed engine as mine is still floating across, so any pics or questions will probably make it seem I don't. Currently have a 195 in the car, more for mock up. Thinking I'll do a twin scroll t4 setup, EFR of some sort. 9174 for the power and throttle response? Any recommendations on hotside a/r? I read from someone the 9180 1.45 was the ticket, but figured the 9174 gives me better turbo rpm and a bit better throttle response. Those in the know: suggestions? Tuners to talk to about my setup/goals? Thanks for any help!
