$25k or so give or take.

 

Another $4,000.... and we're all together! and off to be wrapped.

 

Finally! Let the fun begin.



































Had the truck wrapped Matte Blue Metallic Ghost, and leaving some accents black. Looks BEAUTIFUL!

My good friends at Gas Monkey Garage hooked it up with a new in box pair of Full Race turbos for the 13-14 style. These are going on my 2011. So I know I need the 13-14 intercooler, anyone have any suggestions on a mechanical BOV?

Truck currently has the Heartthrob Aluminized 4" exhaust installed, and AEM Stage 2 intake. I have a catch can that I need to install.

What else do I need for a good set up?

 

who are you going to have tune it?

 

I need help figuring that out. Im in cleveland, ohio. any suggestions?

 

It looks like you have all the engine mods needed for the EB except for possibly a good intercooler. I really like the Wagner.

As far as tuning Give Mike at MPT (morepowertuning.com) a call. Hes in florida but i bet he can get you going on email tunes. The guy is a Ecoboost wizard and imo no one compares to him. Or make the trip to Florida and he will have you smiling ear to ear when you pull the truck off the dyno.

 

Almost done with the wrap... I want to give a big shout out to my friend Richard & Gas Monkey Garage for hooking me up with this brand new in box set of Ford GT / Full Race drop in turbos! I also picked up everything from ford to do the swap.

 

Looking good!

Mike at MPT tuned my truck with GT turbo's. He did a good job, by far the best "email" tune you'll get.

As Coy stated, since you're this far into it, make sure you grab yourself an upgraded intercooler. They make a BIG difference in intake temps.

I'm having some problems with the modifications. From what I've heard, I'll need a $1600 HPFP to run 600hp on pump gas with these new GT Turbos. I really dont want to dump another $1600 into the performance side of this truck when It's going to be on all terrain tires with a lift and get zero traction anyhow.



A few of my colleagues say to sell the new GT turbos, keep the stock ones, and do all the other mods to get around 500hp and be happy. What do you guys think?

 

I'd do what your colleagues recommend. Save the $1600 and recoup some of your money by selling the GT turbos.

It doesn't appear that you've designed this truck for quarter mile times. With the lift you plan and the tires you like, combined with the weight of the truck... you're definitely not going to be taking turns fast. A straight shot is probably the only time that additional 100 hp would even benefit you.

Take the 1600 and/or reclaimed money from the GT turbos, and put airbags on it!! That would be wicked to be able to lower it, raise it, and even level it out when you're towing that boat.

Great build!!

 

Got some more fun stuff going on. I continue to use the truck to tow a 8,000+ lb boat and trailer... it pulls and stops like there is not even anything behind it. I am thrilled.

Decided to Line-X the bed myself. Turned out great.

I am taking to my shop to have the 6" Rough Country lift installed. They also are doing:

Inspection front/rear diff to figure out shaking issue / front 4wd wheels not engaging.
Install rear driveshaft replacement
Full fluids flush – oil and filter – front & Rear diff (check for shavings) & transfer case
Transmisison flush & filter– use Mercon LV –

Change plugs for motorcraft plugs – Gap to .30
Install 160 degree thermostat & gasket
Install catch can
Install Wagner intercooler and turbosmart blow off valve
Install two Full Race GT drop in turbos
Install Kooks catless down pipes (may need clamps)
Install rear 02 eliminators
Install Full Race performance fuel pump, drop tank wire in fuel pump, soder wires
Install rough country lift kit, comes with rear N2 shocks, install bilsteins on front
Install tonneau cover

Wheels arrived today - 20x10 Fuel flat black and milled Assault D546. 37" Tires should be here in a day or two. With new TPMS sensors.

 

 

Note that those tires are only rated for 106 mph.

 

awh ****. oh well lets see how realistic those ratings are.

 

Love the way the wrap turned out!

How do you know the Gas Monkey guys? Their shop is only a few minutes from my house
