Stock motor & On3 turbo kit

**frankstang** · 09-26-2012, 06:16 PM

As some of you know, I busted the snout off the crank on my s/c'd LX yesterday.

I'm throwing around some ideas for what to do next. I'm somewhere in between selling all my parts and the car, or starting to accumulate parts for a new build. lol

I'm really intrigued by the idea of going turbo. Nothing radical, just pick up a stock 5.0 motor and an On3 kit. I see lots of people making great numbers with this simple combo, especially after replacing some of the weaker parts in the kit.

Anyone here running the On3 kit on a stockish 5.0 ?

I have on3 kit on my car. Its a 5.0 out of an explorer. With rollor rockers and f cam. I went 11.91 @120 mph with 410'S And 8u pound of boost. Then changed gears and upted the boost to 1212 pounds and broke an axle so going again at end of month and its a stick car to.

Did you get the base kit and add your own MAf, injectors, etc., or did you get those items from On3.

Nice times BTW. Turbos are just ridiculous.
