    PIP Circuit Fault - Need Help

    Don't buy any more parts until you get the compression up in the 150+psi range...you'll just be wasting money otherwise. Best case the cam timing is causing it, worst case it's a headgasket.

    To mod a stock '85 non intercooled

    I don't see any mention of an upgraded fuel pump...for safety's sake, I'd get a Walbro 255lph HP pump for an 87-94 Mustang and drop it in...they are under $100 and can support all the power you'll ever make.

    Want to build streetable svo!?!

    The stock internals have been proven to live for a long time at ~450rwhp and a few have pushed them into the 515-530rwhp range and lived to tell about it. If you smoked a piston already, your tune was not very good (most likely went lean). I made this FAQ which has alot of info about different...

    muffler help...Magnaflow....

    Why a 3" muffler? Only 2.3 Turbo engines should use a 3" exhaust pipe. You'll be looking for something with 2" or 2.25" inlet/outlet in an offset/offset configuration and a 14" long case.

    Forge Blow Off Valve

    My FMIC kits have the option to weld a 1" bung on so one of those can be installed...which is all it takes (and a piece of 1" hose with 2 clamps).

    Look at this link to my site, there is info about what mods get what hp and such: http://www.Stinger-Performance.com/faq.html In an SVO, you'll need about 250rwhp to go mid 13's.

    I still can't decide!

    I'll second that the glasspacks sound like crap on a 2.3...the best sounding 2.3 muffler is a flowmaster 40.

    I need some tips for my mini-stock.

    He means it uses a 5.7" rod I assume...which is actually a "long rod kit", not a stroker kit.

    Want to build streetable svo!?!

    The sky is the limit...assuming no limit in funds. People have made 450hp on pump gas...but not without significant mods. You might be more successful coming up with a goal for hp or speed in the 1/4 mile and asking what it will take to get there on pump gas...

    Need help with Laptop tuning.

    There is no system available to tune 2.3 n/a ecu's, there are a couple different methods to tune the 2.3 Turbo ecu's.

    8 plug head

    The dual plug won't "bust under boost", that's for sure. The early DP head (what we find on our mustangs and 95 or earlier Rangers is a poor flowing, heart shaped chamber POS. The later DP head (like my 97 ranger) does flow "slightly" better than a turbo head in stock form but doesn't outflow...
