    Got some more progress tonight. All the pipes are finally on and mocked up. Now I can finally see where I want my intercooler and can start working on a mount. Still have to tighten up and seal all the hotside connections, but I'm getting closer.

    My New 2015 Ecoboost!

    Beautiful daily you've got there man. I was literally seconds away from signing on a 2016 EB a couple months back, but it just wasn't the right time financially. I was definitely impressed with the performance though for a daily. Especially since, like you, I've got a 3V project at home when I...

    On3Performance 3v build

    Still need to clock my turbo and a few other things, but here's mine.

    On3Performance 3v build

    Hopefully I'll be able to add something valuable to this thread in the near future, my On3 is on and mocked up but haven't tightened anything yet and still need to figure out a mount for the intercooler. I was honestly going to go Stroker/nitrous but my buddy found me a deal on a brand new kit...

    My FX-R Retrofit

    I love how those turned out. Definitely gonna have to try my hand at this when my turbo build is done.

    Hopefully it'll be hitting the streets soon and we can hit a meet our something. If nothing else it'll be at the NWN race event in Shelton in early September, or I'll set it on fire lol.

    Holy shit we have progress! Going to clock my turbo tonight and try to finish up the cold side and intercooler. Can't figure out how the hell On3 expects me to mount the intercooler with those brackets so I may just be fabbing some up.

    If anybody's still reading this, sorry this has become so drawn out. As you probably guessed my motivation just died when this car went down. Still plugging away at it though and hoping to hear it come to life sometime this spring, if not a lot sooner. All the accessories are now installed...

    Engine and transmission are officially in and carrying their own weight. Not gonna lie I'm starting to get pretty god damn excited!

    Thanks man! It took forever but it's definitely coming along nicely. When the time comes for a fuel upgrade I'll hit him up. The cars been down long enough at this point that as soon as it runs I'm gonna be driving/racing the tits off it for probably a good year before I start thinking about...

    God damn this a sight to behold. First time the engine has been in the car in just shy of 2 years. Time for a beer.

    I'll have to look into the damper and billet oil gears. Injectors and better pumps are definitely on the list. I'm planning to swap out all the Chinese On3 parts within the next couple years so we'll call this Stage 1 lol. My ultimate goal is 10's, don't care if its 10.0 or 10.9 as long as its a...

    Here's another update on what's possibly the worlds slowest build. Just realized it'll be a year from my last update as of tomorrow. Jesus that's sad lol. I've been trying to hide some of the major portions of this build but I figure at this point most have forgotten it exists or already have an...
