I have a 00 MUSTANG V6 COUPE that I am going to modify and would like some input on what else might be needed.
Here's what I intend to do;
*T3/T4 Twin Turbo Kit
*Injectors

*MAF

*Throttle body

*Under drive pulleys (aluminum)
*Focus/Cobra SVT fuel pump
*410 gears
*Diablosport Tuner (of course)
Well, there it is. Looking forward in hearing from you guys.

first off keep stock gearing with turbo kit or 3.55's, but not 4.10's way to much gear.

second a TB is a waste of money.

MAF and injectors will be needed. 42lb injecotrs are fine till 400rwhp.

go with SCT, diablo sucks.

i have an 80mm lightning and like it, or your could go with a MAF extender on the stock MAf depending how high in hp you go.

Diablo's customer support is crap. I used to have one. Not to mention all of the best tuners out there use SCT mainly. they might tune with diablo if you have it, but most prefer SCT because if there is an issue they know it can get solved.

I'm a turbo junkie by nature...started using them and have never looked back...however, I fabricate my own kits, from researching for unit, piecing fuel system together, bending/welding/designing hot and cold sides, etc....if you are not extremely dedicated to research and fabrication, I'd say just go with a supercharger kit...cheaper as a pre-fab kit and will get the power you want...I believe the turbo kit(homemade) would be a much better deal if you can swing it, but it can get a lot more complicated. The turbo, properly sized, should create quite a bit more torque "under the curve", which is what ultimately we all crave as muscle car enthusiasts.
