Twin Turbo V6 Project

[Nick]

Tom sent me this picture. He went to the strip over the weekend and here is a quote from him: "we took our Procharged 2015 3.7 to Mustang Day at local Silver Dollar drag strip. Had 7 races all with Coyote powered 11-16 GTs and one 2016 GT350. Beat them all, even the GT350. Best run of the day was 11.97 at 118MPH. Stock converter, stock 3.15 gears, no suspension mods. 1.99 60-ft is not good but was the best we had. I thought the car had 11.60s in it but just wasn’t gonna happen. Thought I’d share with you, your car will be there to." This is good news for boosted 3.7 owners! Hopefully on E85 I can run a little more boost safely!

:love:

I need to bring my car down to Tom and get into the 500's, and I do have suspension mods. And he's not on E85 yet!

I am posting this to avoid constant questions about where I purchased items and how much they costs...

 

[Nick]

So where did you purchase all these items and how much did they cost?

HAHA! Seriously though, on my most recent YouTube video I posted what all the parts were and some people would still ask what part it was... smh

 

[kodypiccirilli]

Got the email from Tom saying that my car is ready for the tuning process! We are now THAT much closer to having the car ready to be driven!

Any chance you can give us a bit more info on that 2 bar MAP sensor from procharger? I don't see it listed in your parts list!

Yes, I always forget to add that. I did not purchase it initially because I was unaware that the stock MAP sensor would need to be replaced. Tom has purchased the sensor from procharger for me. He said that there has not been much information released about this sensor. If you have a more specific question about it, I will ask Tom and see if he could answer it.

I am really just curious about how I could purchase it.... Or if there is a more generic MAP sensor out there that would work. I find it hard to believe that pro charger manufactured the sensor so if we could get the part number of the sensor being used that would be helpful! I have been cross referencing the wiring diagrams and unfortunately, none of the OEM Ford ecoboost MAP sensors will be a plug and play option.

Yes, after I google search I see what you are talking about with the ecoboost MAP sensors. I talked to Tom and unfortunately, Procharger has filed off/scratched out/covered up the part number that was on the sensor. Not sure why they do that...

I do not understand why it is such a secret unless pro charger thinks that by not providing that info they will remain the only FI option... I got an email from MPT saying that a 2.7 EB sensor might work but would require some wiring modifications.... They said Tom actually did that for supersix's FI 3.7.

Hmm. Interesting. Yeah, I have no clue why is would be a big enough deal to mark off all of the parts numbers?

 

[zackmd1]

Yea... Have to get in touch with Tom to see what they did to get the 2.7 sensor to work.

 

[zackmd1]

Ok so I have just been through the wiring diagrams again. It looks as though the 3.5 EB sensor will work with a bit of modification to the wiring. On the EB sensor, pins 1 and 3 will have to be switched to line up with the vehicles wiring. An adapter harness would have to be made to achieve this. Why can't anything be simple.... :tsk:

It ALWAYS has to be complicated. Even though I have not done the installation for this project, there has been a few issues/complications that we had to overcome. I guess that is all a part of the R&D for this "experiment"

 

[kodypiccirilli]

The installation if OFFICIALLY officially complete now! Me and Tom are working with Mike from MPT to tune the car remotely, which has started today. Here are some pictures of the completed engine bay, as well as the placement of the driver side air inlet, the passenger side is in the same position on the opposite side.
