Awesome! Is the 409 header upgrade worth the money? Or is the coated steel stuff fine?Yepper. Had mine on my 5. in my 325is, it will now be going on the new engine in my foxbody. Good service, and actually pretty good quality on the parts.
I did the black coated, no issues. Gonna wrap em anyway.Awesome! Is the 409 header upgrade worth the money? Or is the coated steel stuff fine?
That’s what I was thinking, thanks!I did the black coated, no issues. Gonna wrap em anyway.
Awesome! I was thinking of going with a megasquirt system and attempting to learn tuning on the car myself. Which ecu did you go with?I’m running the kit on a stock car minus gt40 intake, 70mm tb, 47lb injectors car is an absolute blast to drive, I’m also running an aftermarket ecu and the cars been tuned which I highly recommend
Thanks for the advice!Biggest first hand advice I could give is buy a tial wastegate and BOV for the kit . Be careful with wrapping because it will keep the moisture in and rot the manifolds over time time . Watch the welds we had the wastegate flange actually break off a kit years ago . Not a bad entry level kit though . Some time ago they did have some fitment issues with piping having to be cut and re worked but i haven’t seen much of that lately
I'm running this Microsquirt kit https://www.efisource.com/wp/shop/microsquirt-for-1986-93-ford-5-0-mustang/Awesome! I was thinking of going with a megasquirt system and attempting to learn tuning on the car myself. Which ecu did you go with?
Because of steel prices worldwide?I run On3 and have no complaints about their kit. Its been working for a couple years. I do want to order a spare hot side because I know they'll be hard to find or more expensive in the next couple years.

I’ve been looking at power adders for my 86 GT that is .30 over and has gt40 heads, intake, 24# injectors, comp cam, 1.6 roller rockers, underdrive pulleys, 70mm accufab throttle body. I would like to go turbo, but the only affordable out of box kits are the on3 kits. What is everyone’s opinion?
Check out my build thread,lot's of pics and info there. Honestly,the most time consuming part was getting the front bumper to fit around the intercooler. I could do the install in 2 days now that I've done it twice.I really want to put the ON3 kit on my bone stock 93 LX, but I’m having a hard time in central Texas finding a reputable shop to do the install.
I called HPP racing yesterday and the guy quoted $6200 for the kit, install, and tune. That to me seems astronomical. He said the install would take roughly 20 hours and their shop rate was $120 an hour. I was thinking parts aside for labor it would be somewhere between $1000-$1500.
If anyone has any guidance or advice it would be greatly appreciated. Sorry OP not trying to hijack your thread!
