Dan's 1400whp Twin Turbo Build

We've been slowly gathering parts and assembling our customer (Dan's) GT. The goal for the car is to run consistent mid-low 8's in 100% full street trim, and still function as a daily-driven car. The car came in from Florida a while back, and is getting the following:

- Boost Works built/sleeved engine
- Boost Works 1600hp Twin Turbo System
- Custom intercooler upgrade
- Twin 67mm turbos
- 6R80E swap (car was originally a manual)
- Fully built Circle D 6R80E Transmission
- Circle D triple carbon disc TQ converter
- Return style fuel system with triple 465lph pumps
- Injector Dynamics injectors
- 3.31 gear swap and Trak-loc diff swap
- DSS 1400hp axles
- Watson Racing single parachute launcher and chute
- Myriad of suspension goodies from BMR
- Race Star rims and MT's
- Watson 8 point cage

Bunch of other stuff I'm probably forgetting.. lol

Here's a few pics of our progress thus far. Stay tuned as we bring this beast to life.

Looking forward to seeing this progress!

Its going to be a complete animal

How times have changed. Here we are talking about a 1400hp grocery getter Mustang. WOW!!!! Good luck with the build!

Nice build!
Are you using E98 for fuel & if you are will 1700cc be enough injector? (I haven't seen any bigger injectors for the S550 platform)
I'm asking because I ran out fuel (e85) at 1227whp with 1600cc then ran out of injector at 1290whp with (e98) was with a 418 cube motor.

I know several cars running well over 1500rwhp on pump e85.

My 14 was over 1300rwhp on pump e85 with ID2000...

I'd like to hear more details on the trans swap, assuming it's not as easy as in an old car with all the electronics these days.....

I'm not doubting that at all & I've seen it done as well but with inconsistent mixes of pump e85 is that something you would want for your personal ride? I wouldn't just saying. A lot of people don't know that during winter months companies drop to an even lower e70 blend.
I guess I should of worded my post better, my tuner didn't feel comfortable with adding more timing with pump E85.

That is one bada** build!

Sweet, Looking forward to seeing this thing on the streets. I know this guy!

I live in very lower texas. It stays "e85" year around.

woooweee!!!! love it when guys are willing to spend the $$$ to show us the upper limits possible with these cars / engines

Yeah you gotta find a station that has consistent E85. Station I go to tests every batch when it's delivered to be sure it's hitting E85.

We have a Sunoco 5 minutes from the shop that sells about 90% all year round.
