800hp Twin Turbo build

[02S281]

When I get back from Afghanistan next fall I am doing a twin turbo build. My goal is 800 hp but I have never done a turbo build. I have played with KB and Saleen superchargers but never turbo's. I am staying 2v so my question is, what headaches am I going to see while doing this.

I want to get the hellion twin turbo kit for the 2v 99-04 gts that they make unless someone knows of a better kit out there.

Biggest headache will be putting gas in it all the time to feed 800horsies worth. Good luck and keep us posted when it starts.

I know your talking a built engine to handle it but I'm sure you know that... I can't wait to see this project!!!

Yeah lol, getting a MMR 1000hp capable 5.0 Rotating Assembly.

Sounds beyond awesome! Good luck with the build.

For fuel I am looking at a aeromotive fuel system and I want to run e85, transmission I'm not sure about if I am just going to build mine or try to find a t56.

I'm selling my blower and blower cams early next month if anyone is interested. It will probably be a little bit of $$ to ship from Washington though.

Might want to consider going with an auto with that kind of power/torque..

Nah, it will still be a street car, if it was going to be a drag car then yeah but I wanna stick to a manual trans.

id go with magnafuel instead of aeromotive, they are starting to build their stuff in china..

 

[Chuckie B]

hmmm....blower cams for sale? how would these work with my KB?...

I will deff look into that, thanks!

The blower cams will deff work for your KB. Probably better than they do for this little ol Saleen blower. They are CMS stage 3 cams.

Didn't you end up having problems with them? or was something else causing that...cant remember just thought when your installed them there was some sort of noise being made?

 

[02S281]

Yeah that was actually a bent rod and a bent valve causing a lifter to be popping off. Thats what the sound was. It must have been when I installed in the first time, the timing chain tensioner was messed up and caused slack and the chain skipped teeth and got off timing.

Either way I'm not going to sell them now anyway cause I am doing a TorkTech kit with the new Liquid Cooled cobra Kenne Bell supercharger on it

 

[cobrastang161]

IMO you are better off getting an 03 cobra engine for the price you are going to spend on that tork teck kit. You can find a nice one for around $5000 shipped.

The torktech kit is only 1700 or something and I come across many used KB blowers for some for Cobras. Even a new KB blower (just the blower) is 1800 and then my rotating assembly is 1900. Plus, its a 2v thing. I have actually never seen a KB cobra blower on a 2v haha.... I just want to build a fast 2v
