Bump- Best offer. Anyone want to give this a shot?

Hey guys, so for sale is a JYTT exhaust system setup I used for a while before I had to scrap the project due to some medical bills. Theyve been in my basement for a while now and its time to part with them. I bought this setup here on the forums and I'm not looking to make anything, just...

I do.. They're not the standard orange toppers though- they're all black with a lil' blue ring. I'm pretty sure they're just aftermarket replacements. LMK. They ran fine on my stock 302.

I don't know about that one. It may have been flat aluminum. It was VHT high temp paint from AutoZone. I'll try and find a partial can of it if I have any left and take a pic of the label for you. And yes, I think I do have more pics of the engine- give me your email address and I'll send...

Hey Blackthorn, yeah I will get it going. OH YES. :) I just don't have the time or money right now, and I realllllyyyy miss my pony. It's just put on hold. I'll do a 'part 2' thread of this when I take it back off the road in the winter. It sucks, but it's a decision I had to come to...

Thanks guys. It does suck. I'm not giving up, just putting it on hold. Let's see- cost? I'll try and do the best I can to remember. Turbos- 200 initial cost (ebay) 200 new chra for one 100 - rebuild kit and new turbine wheel for the other (which is the bad one now) 60 -...

I have updates, finally.. I realized I haven't posted here in a while, but there hasn't really been much to say.... I got the head gaskets back on, and the engine back together and running fine. I've been TRYING to tune it with the Megasquirt since I got it, I've put in a few hours of road...

yeah, it sucks. . Thanks grey I appreciate the compliment! Truth is, I'm just learning too. I've been into cars for 10 years, but this is my first homemade turbo car. (and coincidentally my first Mustang too) Oh well, that's how you learn. Just get up and move on. :)

Hi guys, progress update- If you all care. My troubleshooting began with a quick startup of the engine when I got home from work. It started beautifully, and ran like It did before, except a lil smoke/steam from the breather on the valve cover. COULD just be condensation.. or it’s something...

I pulled the tranny, found the problem, (the clutch was rubbing on the bellhousing) dremeled out the bellhousing enough for clearance, got it back togehter, got it running today, and took it for a drive. It boosted to the stock wastegate's levels- 8 PSI ish.. It M O V E S. but.. then.. I saw...

You sure man? I mean I don't know if that would make THAT kind of racket.. Turn it in or out?

yeah, at this point I don't want to drive it- I don't want to damage anything further. :(

It does it regardless of gear-neutral included, so it's definitely no further back than the trans. I put the car up on stands and actually tried it in gear. I did look under the car. I removed the clutch cable dust shield, but couldn't see anything unusual. Any time the clutch is out, basically.

How can I tell if it's defective?

:mad: Well, I finally got my turbo issues resolved- I bought a new CHRA.. So, I get the driver side turbo in last night and fire it up to take it for its maiden voyage as a twin turbo. When I starrt it, it makes this HORRIBLE knocking/clunking sound when the clutch pedal is released. When...

yeah, thanks man. :) It's taken a lot of work to get the addition this far, but it's going to be worth it. we're having another kiddo, so we need the extra room! Anyway, no i didn't remove the console. I didn't actually remove the carpet, just folded it back from where I was welding and held...

I got the roll bar in completely, painted, and interior back together this weekend, bled the brakes, now I'm working on exhaust leaks. I plan to drive it for the first time by the end of this week.. Stay tuned for details and pics.. if anyone's still interested. :) (Oh, did I mention My...

I don't knoy why the sound is so bad- it's just the way the camera phone took the vid. There are a LOT of exhaust leaks too, and they overpower the turbo sound and the real exhaust note. I'm workin on that. well, I ripped out the interior, and am working on welding in the MM rollbar. it's...
