Talking '91 Mustang LS Coupe, single turbo

I know, these are pretty common now. But I finally have mine "done". I bought the car as a roller in the fall of '09, after I sold my '99 SS. It was originally going to be a junk yard 6.0, 6 speed car with nitrous. Following the LSx Shootout in Memphis, all of the turbo guys I was hanging around with got to me.

I had a few parts to sell, in order to change direction with the build, but I went for it.
The car now has a built 6.0, 4L80 and a little turbo.

Here are a few pics from along the way.

Big props to Blake @ 417!!!!!

Here is when I first got it off the transporter, I had not seen the car before it arrived at my house.

Getting the stock k member out for the AJE piece.


UPS was @ my house quite a bit, my cat had to inspect the CSR flex plate that I got from FTI, along with the tq converter.


A couple more parts showed up...




Now on to the good stuff...









Haven't had a chance to take it out for good pics yet, but here is how it sits now.

Looks like an awesome build man, what size turbo and how much boost are you planning on running?

That looks sick with the black wheels and the fatty/skinny combo! I like those coupes the best...

Thanks for the positive comments everyone!

The alt bracket is a custom piece. As far as pullies, I'm using an u/d crank pulley & the only accessories are the water pump & alt.
