So I am at a crossroad here. Would like some guys opinions on some things. I know there might be threads similar to this, but I can't find my situation when I searched on my Gen3, in specific.
This is my current build:
2019 Mustang GT A10
Stock motor
Whipple gen5 3.0 with 3.0 pulley at 18psi
6 rib and stock balancer
Oversized heat exchanger
A10 trans-Mcloud clutches and Circle D 258 mm converter
Ice tank
Stainless works catless headers
Mbrp race h pipe exhaust
Fore dual pump and fc3 controller
Id1050s
Fore innovations dual pump and fc3
BMR drag springs
Bmr Vertical links, toe links, caster camber plates, cradle lockout
Viking crusader shocks
1400 horsepower rated DSS axles
DSS one piece drive
VMS and Mickey Thompson sportsman skinny's front
VMS and 305 45-17 Mickey Thompson ET Street r on the rear.
My new build in 2 weeks possibly will be everything mentioned above, but a 1500 horsepower rated tkm performance built and sleeved motor and 23 psi
Alternator relocation
Crank support
10 rib setup
20% balancer
3.0 pulley
Id1700s
Triple pump fore innovations
Don't get me wrong, I love my Whipple more than anything in the world right now. It produces a buttload of power and I pretty much beat everyone I race on the street on what I have now. But THIS IS ROLL RACING. I cannot do lower than a 50 roll unless my tires are really really hot and it's a really hot day and then I maybe might be able to do a 40. But still it is sketchy. It's not possible to do a dig on the street. Have not tried prep, but very impossible without prep unless I probably go half throttle till about 50 mph. Which I feel is kind of useless.
Track was 9.3 at 157mph, BUT this was on everything BUT ice tank, built trans, and the extra 3 psi(I was on 15 psi then). so I can probably do even better than that. But my 60-foot is a 1.5 and I cannot get it under that. Lund and my racing shop said they would help me get my 60 foot down. but obviously I'm going with even more power. Have not been able to go to the track because of the virus crap going around and they are just now starting to open, but my motor is just about done also. Lol.
I mainly street drive my car. I love the track and once I do my safety, if I do, then I'll be going at least four or five times a year minimum. But I have to do safety because they will kick me out like they did last time, which is understandable. I only have 4400 miles on the car, so that's the only reason why I have not done safety yet.
Okay now that you know a little bit of the background of my vehicle and what I do with it, my biggest worry is that I put back on the Whipple and have way more PSI and more power and then I will not be able to hook on the street even at a 50 or 60 LOL. And DEFINITELY NOT a dig. I did however just by like $3,500 worth of parts to support the Whipple.
Then I decided maybe, just maybe I might need to go turbo? The reason why I say this is not because it produces more power or anything to that extent, but I can control boost and be able to hook on the street a lot easier and turn it up and down at a push of a button instead of having to change a pulley. With all this being said, what do you guys think? I know it's my car and the decision is going to be up to me in the end, but I'm all up for opinions on keeping the whipple and figuring out how to do everything I love to do with it or if what I'm telling you guys would be better off with the turbos in MY situation. Any advice would be greatly appreciated and also any opinions. Because if I'm going to change to turbo, I need to do it now l, I would think. I don't do any of my installs.
