    GEN 1 Twin Turbo 6.2 Raptor build: DIY Tri-Y turbo headers

    I think I might revisit this sooner than I thought. Not sure when - city life and apartment life really sucks the life out of me as the garage I have is detached, uninsulated and no recepticles. Could try to add some but no access to the breaker panel and provides "service" to the bank of 10...

    Tuning with HP Tuners

    Factory front O2 sensors ARE wideband in all coyote/6.2L/Ecoboost vehicles. I got an nGauge and it works perfect for monitoring AFR/Lambda.

    Tuning with HP Tuners

    I've done a fair amount of research and tuned the turbo setup I built a few months ago. Install/build took way too long and got it running for a few weeks but pulled it all out as I didn't have time to screw with the torque maps. Reasoning was I was moving from AK to WA and had to tow shit and...

    GEN 1 Twin Turbo 6.2 Raptor build: DIY Tri-Y turbo headers

    I only got a couple WOT runs with like 5psi (no heat exchanger at the time, but only ~85 or 90*F IAT) and it felt pretty good for being down in timing. My only concern is surging and how close it is to the brake booster. Other than that, the wrap, turbo blankets, and aerogel did a great job at...

    GEN 1 Twin Turbo 6.2 Raptor build: DIY Tri-Y turbo headers

    It's done but the turbos surge below 2000rpm it's still there but acceptable until 3000 RPM and then it's fine. I tried playing with vacuum hoses and reconfiguring the hoses for crankcase ventilation to try and get the BPV open sooner but no luck. If I add a pair of aftermarket blowoff...

    GEN 1 Twin Turbo 6.2 Raptor build: DIY Tri-Y turbo headers

    ***** taking way longer than I thought. Manifolds were a bitch to get out since nuts were kinda rusty. Got the headers in. Valve covers on. Injectors in (pre filled with gas since returnless system). Iridium 1 heat range colder plugs in gapped to ~0.028". Plug wires and harnesses tied up and...

    Hellion Twin Turbo Review (LONG)

    FYI Turbos will still eat some power. Pressure is generated due to housing restriction and that pressure puts countacting force on the piston as it is shoving it into the exhaust. It doesn't use too much and is maybe 1/5th the cost of a supercharger but it does use some power up. I suppose...

    I did fittings instead of welding a pipe on in case it gets dinged it can be replaced. Aluminum is soft ;)

    GEN 1 Twin Turbo 6.2 Raptor build: DIY Tri-Y turbo headers

    I like my V8 lol. Factory for now i don't see a need for over 600whp . Probably call it done for now and keep around 550 whp at around 7 psi to keep it reliable. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using Tapatalk ---------- Post added at 03:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:14 PM...

    GEN 1 Twin Turbo 6.2 Raptor build: DIY Tri-Y turbo headers

    Did a pre scaling of the 4" maf. Did some calculations and nailed it from 0 - 40lb/min in 1.5 hours and 3 reflashes ;) Goes in this week after ford puts the warrantied control arm in.

    GEN 1 Twin Turbo 6.2 Raptor build: DIY Tri-Y turbo headers

    Hand formed intercooler end tanks out of 0.0625" ... 5083 aluminum? I forget. It held plenty of pressure in the STI with the 750hp garrett core that I built. Ran 33psi of boost on that out of an EFR 8374 (79lb/min or ~790hp) 4 inch outlet. Trimmed it a bit after. I wanted minimum volume...

    GEN 1 Twin Turbo 6.2 Raptor build: DIY Tri-Y turbo headers

    Here's a story: After concluding that the firing order was 13726548, I proceeded to tack the first piece - I referenced the owners manual (2012) for the order (more on this later) Built a crude positioner out of a lathe chuck and a wheelchair motor. I didn't really use it for welding, mostly...
