    Sorry .. Yes TT stealth ... Purchased with 68,000 miles .. I will within this new year build the bottom end and go bigger turbos with supporting mods .. But I need to get it a little faster by today's standards . I'm coming from a 2012 5.0 that was 12.0 @118mph with just a tune and similar weight .. So I'm felling a little slow right now lol

    You really dont need to build the bottom end for that , some 15gs or 19ts would be a very good start and make 450 + whp but that's a 3k + endeavour . The bottom ends in these cars will hold up to those levels very well but get it to CPU first downside , exhaust ,fuel pump , boost controller and intake maybe intake pipes would make the car fun and a shifter really make the car enjoyable

    68K miles.........was 60K verified?

    Anyways, skip exhaust. Downpipe, be gone with the kitties, boost controller, pressure test, fuel pump hotwire/fuel pump, get a non-stock BOV preferably an EVO valve but crushed DSM will do. Intake if you want, but not needed. Pressure test. Vac redux is nice but no power. Pressure test. Datalogger to check knock. Did I mention pressure test?

    Flashable ECU should knock out that budget...

    Don't even think about turbos until your fuel is set. A mistake on 9b's is considerably cheaper than a mistake on 15G's.

    Yea I'm a Newb to twin turbo 6 lol
    I'm gonna build cause I'm shooting for 750-800rwhp on boost .. My 2011 5.0 had a Vortech blower @10-11#s making a tick over 730rwhp it was a blast .. I know all about having fuel and avoiding detonation ... I can prob squeeze 1600 for the first mods .. Where do u guys shop for parts ... ?
    Is there a mods page here with modifications , power and or track times listed ??

    unless that's a typo, you're barking up the wrong tree, sparky.

    boost controller, cat-delete, injectors, fuel-pump & hotwire, fuel controller. that's where you should start. and only AFTER you're 110% sure the car is running tip-top.

    you can buy at any of our vendors on the forum. they should be fairly easy to locate from the main forum page. which ones you buy from depends on what you want and what you're looking for. do some research. some are, imho, better than others.

    all moot point until that question is answered...

    ...can easily blow a grand getting these cars up to snuff depending on; prior owner and your own willingness to get greasy
    if you cant fix it with a hammer...then you have an electrical problem

    58 year old guy down the rd . 1 owner .. Lived Next to me for ever I grew up seeing the car and he only worked two maybe 3 miles from his house so he wouldn't drive it that much and rarely on the weekends.. How long do these motors last if taken care of ?
