Since there are a lot of turbo cars and home builds on the site, I figured you would enjoy my friend Shaun's build thread. Shaun and Anthony of ShaunAnthony’s are the guys that built Pratt’s (PressureRatio) turbo kit and exhaust. For Shaun’s build, they decided to go all out and hand build pretty much everything. The thread is a bit long, but it’s cool to see all the custom fab work they are doing. The intake setup with 8 individual hand built throttle bodies is a work of art. When the car is done, they are shooting for 700 on pump gas at the tires and close to 1,000 on race fuel.
Background on the car: 1990 Cobra clone. We ran Incon turbos for a few years. After blowing a bunch of head gaskets and wrecking one shortblock I decided get rid of Dave Inall’s idea of a pyramid scheme/wet dream and coaxed Anthony back into the shop.
Here are the specs/criteria:
-395” Windsor
-twin MP T70’s
-1 3/4" header primaries
-3.5” downpipes
-3.5” aluminum exhaust
-Shaunthony’s rebuildable aluminum mufflers
-OVER the axle tail pipes
-PS and A/C hung off Shaunthony’s brackets
-Power brakes
-Shaunthony’s sheet metal intake with 8 individual billet runners/throttle bodies(just added)
-Shaunthony’s air to water IC
-Spark plug access with impact sockets
-AEM firing LS2 coils in wasted spark config (just added)
-All this shit needs to fit under a stock steel hood
