vertmustang98gt Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 I used to be active on the forum years ago. I left for college and now three years after graduating, I'm ready to get back into the car scene full fledged. My name is Ray and you may recognize the cars since I've been going to the CR meets/informal car meets since they were located at Kroger at Broad Street years ago. 1998 Mustang GT Convertible, 4.6L (Standard, 5 speed) Before (2005): http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p235/MustangTeen98GT/RaysMustang.jpg After (2014): http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p235/MustangTeen98GT/DSC00968.jpg Mods: BBK Headers, BBK X-Pipe, Flows, 4.10's, Full Front Tubular Susp, Etc.

vertmustang98gt Posted March 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 (edited) Hi Ray, Believe we met the other day at Brian's. Nice collection and welcome! We did, hard to forget your car and I do remember you're an IT guy (since you're a site admin). Thanks for the compliments everyone and I'm glad to be aboard.

JaSSon Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 Wow, E Broad Kroger. It's been a loooooooong time. Edit: Is turbocharging a PI swapped car a good idea? There's usually a compression bump when installing PI heads on a non-pi block. I suppose with a good tune and good fuel it may be safe enough...

There's usually a compression bump when installing PI heads on a non-pi block. I suppose with a good tune and good fuel it may be safe enough... That's why I'm here...To find out if it is or not a good idea. I know that it can be done, but yes a good tuner is always needed. Luckily this site has a couple tuners that sponsor the site, that I trust my vehicles with. If anything else, I'd be changing out the intake since it's plastic (Non-Pi = Garbage). Plan is to run the car hard and whatever happens, happens. Then have a 4V build going in and then go from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
