How Much It Actually Costs To Turbo a New Edge Mustang

[@RidinDirtyRollinBurnouts]

I'm about 28 grand into my new edge on3 build. Built bottom end, Clutch, turbo, t56 swap, struts, custom ac line, and all the extra bs needed to make the turbo build work. That's what it took to make it a 600whp daily driver.

[@doaburnout1205]

Hmm 28k?

[@angelgjr1999]

28k including car?

[@edgarmorales1436]

If hes including the car and paying someone to do the work I can definitely see it, it pays off doing your own work.

[@glennjames7107]

What kind of bottom end did you build ? You should be able to funnel nitro through that engine ! Lol

[@tedbear8168]

Not hating just saying you could have a 351 Windsor fully built UPR. On coil overs 330,s on the rear with 3.73 gears, if I had 28 grand my v6 mustang would be a nightmare for the modern man who goes out and buys power 😜

[@Jsta2v_racing]

As u upgrade and build the motor, u will be amazed. These little 2vs can make some power. Turbo 2v here myself. On3 kit as well. Been slightly modified. Keep up the great work y’all. Will follow y’all

[@RatchetWrenches]

Absolutely. Andrew Lavender is a great example of that. Thanks appreciate it!

[@Jsta2v_racing]

@@RatchetWrenches yeah I’m trying to chase down his times. Trying to get on the fastest 2v list. 9.12 at 152mph so far. Going in the right direction but gonna need more.

[@billywatson313]

what’s a safe stock block hp and boost numbers?

[@Jsta2v_racing]

@@billywatson313 it seems to vary on Hp. I have heard of people at 500. But most seem to loose the motor at around 450. Really depends on the tune.

[@RatchetWrenches]

@@billywatson313 I'm pushing 7.5lbs making 435HP 458TQ haven't had any issues yet. Seems like around 450-500 is where problems start to occur generally

[@theslownewedge]

Very helpful info! I’m about to be getting this kit for my 99 GT. But I wouldn’t say the dipstick is required for long tubes… I have BBK long tubes on and have the original dipstick

[@RatchetWrenches]

Thanks! And oh really? I was always told it was required but good to know it's not!

[@richardrawson]

Just curious how much it was for the dyno tune. I’m guessing even with that added cost it’s still cheaper than the supercharger route. I was pretty much dead set on a supercharger for my 97 Cobra but your cost breakdown really helped to sway me towards the turbo route, plus I like that the kit comes intercooled. Kenne Bell only makes one kit for the 96-98 Cobras and it’s non-intercooled and limited to about 11psi I think. Sounds like the turbo has way more potential. Great stuff, guys!

[@RatchetWrenches]

Unfortunately I forgot and left out the price for the tune, but the price can vary A LOT. Everything went pretty smooth for my session and I think it was $500. Usually it's around $400 minimum. It really depends on what your goal is for the car but IMO turbo has a lot more benefits especially when you go to turn up the power. And yea coming with an intercooler was great. Thanks! Good luck with the build 👍🏼

[@carsairsoft]

Killer build. Keep up the 2V content

[@RatchetWrenches]

Thank you!

[@genericdude6551]

It seems that a supercharger would be easier to install and it seems it would cost about the same for the essentials. JMO. One could spend a lot of bucks upgrading the SN95 Mustangs but it's nice to know we have options other than buying a new car.

[@RatchetWrenches]

Supercharger would be much easier for sure! And depends what supercharger brand you use but for example a top mount roots style blower like whipple is going to be more expensive than a turbo set up. Either way yeah there's plenty of options for boost!

[@psychoschematics8394]

Lol I swore the next video was gonna be y’all rippin’ it. But, let’s go 🤘🏾 team New Edge

[@RatchetWrenches]

It was supposed to be but with the snow and the small setback of the oil relocation lines it got pushed back! It’s going to be soon tho we promise. We just want to make it the best reveal possible and with the snow and weather it’s even difficult haha

[@robheisey2135]

If u want boost without the hassle of k member coil overs ect would be pro charged, you’ve been going back and forth and helping each other along the way and fuck yeah nothing like the BOV sounds and always smile while driving great vid guys and can’t wait to see the in cabin vids

[@RatchetWrenches]

Agreed 100%!! But then you run the risk of belt slip lol. I can't wait til it gets warm and we can rip it! Definitely will be filming a lot in the spring

[@THEWATER3UCKET]

The crazy thing is I've spent more just restoring and doing light mods. I rebuilt trans and refreshed the engine with all gaskets and seals from the block out. Did wheels tires and suspension, bought a cobra irs and restoring that with full tilt boogie and most recently got wilwood 6 pistons up front. Allll that and I'm still on stock power and probably twice in the hole than you are tbh lol

[@RatchetWrenches]

Ahahah you bring up a good point which is crazy to think about! That's why you gotta love the project and not care about the money cause all this ads up quick!

[@ponycorral99]

Love the car! You guys are really turning that thing into a beast! I've done a lot of the same stuff to my 2V but haven't done a turbo. I did build the bottom end and went high compression. It will stay that way, but my other 99 will get a turbo kit eventually! Thanks for keeping the great videos coming!

[@RatchetWrenches]

Thank you! We're trying to make it a monster. Nothing wrong with a NA 2v. The turbo 99 will be fun for sure 👍🏼

[@lvnewvlf3832]

Your smart starting off with the basics cause you will always want more

[@mr.mondonutts7709]

Awesome and bad ass informational vid guys appreciated, can you say if this kit will bolt up to a 5.4 swap? Everyone says the blocks and heads are pretty much same, hope you guys can tell me.

[@RatchetWrenches]

Thank you! And yes it will work with the 5.4 swap

[@SvtCobraKid1]

Can't wait for more videos of the 2v

[@RatchetWrenches]

There will be plenty more to come! It’s just a bummer the snow and cold has been delaying everything but don’t worry they’re coming!

[@moosestangls5099]

Awesome job building the car I took a short cut to an 5.3 but that's a nice car

[@RatchetWrenches]

Thank you!

[@speedchasers3846]

Great video guys! We just picked up an '04 40th anniversary mustang and are going to do something similar +meth. Your videos are going to be a big help thanks!

[@RatchetWrenches]

Thank you! That sounds like it'll be a fun build for sure. Any questions you have feel free to ask us

[@tallbozo]

Thank you for the links and going though this process. Learned a ton! Good luck with the build

[@RatchetWrenches]

Yea you got it we are here to help 👍🏼 thanks appreciate it

[@cpte.3800]

Sweet video! Ive got a 2002 gt with about 120k miles on it. Other than exhaust, it's pretty much stock. I would like to get an extra 200-250 horses out of it. Do you guys think this kit is the way to go or suggest something different? 2nd question : do you guys suggest I reinforce anything inside the motor ( to handle those extra horses) ?

[@RatchetWrenches]

Thanks! And with that many miles especially to be safe you'd have to upgrade the internals (rods, pistons). This kit could definitely help you reach those goals yeah I'd recommend it. You could also look into Vortech superchargers they are known to produce good results

[@Jonathan-fp5ym]

Can you make a 4.6 automatic fast?? And how

[@lifeonadime4703]

Excellent breakdown on the parts list and review of the kit fellas 👌. On3 is know for being kinda sub par on some things but it IS a good budget kit to build off of. You can always upgrade the turbo, and other stuff later if you need. You now have boost. I can't wait to see where the next year goes with the 'stang 🤘. Just always make sure to give that turbo time to cool down by running it at idle for a few minutes after driving and I'm sure it will last just fine with regular oil changes. Lots of guys forget to let them cool down. It really does help. Nice job on the build guys 👌

[@RatchetWrenches]

Thank you! Yeah it's definitely a great kit to build off of that's for sure. We can't wait to see what this year brings for the car. And thanks for the tip I'll definitely allow it to cool down

[@RidinDirtyRollinBurnouts]

Wastegate and turbo are the only questionable items, they've improved their kits over the decade its been out. Wastegates were known to stick and cause overboost. The upgraded ball bearing turbo is also much better over the stock chinese unit. The k member they sell as an add-on is quality name brand, and their pipe welds are very nice. Certainly a great starter kit where you can upgrade components to shit your needs.

[@lifeonadime4703]

@@RidinDirtyRollinBurnouts totally agree 👍. Their manifolds used to be shyte but they are honestly pretty decent from what iv seen now. And you could spend as much precision turbos, as it cost for the entire kit so, definitely not a bad buy. Didn't know they had their own k member out now. Ill have to check that out 👌. "Edit" just saw your talking about the one in a kit. Yeah it's not bad. I'll be buying mm for mine and just making it work.

[@anthonyfoote1734]

I've been thinking about doing something similar when the wife let's me. Did you have to do anything to the trans or back end? I'm worried about throwing too much power back there. But I also have an auto so milage will vary.

[@RatchetWrenches]

Not yet nope. Will be upgrading the rear end eventually and then probably the trans too as long as they don't blow up haha

[@kingofkings852]

You guys would like my 04 2v. Built w/ 5.0 boss block. heads oversized intake valves, custom ground comp cams, 2.8 KB, the full setup. Return style fuel, twin 465L pumps, etc etc list goes on. Have the car 17 yrs. Last dyno pull made 764whp, needed 95lb or higher to keep going and tighter grip on the pulley and I can run a 2.5 inch without slip (mind you it’s already an 8 rib setup). One of my finals things is running water meth. That will help drastically. Def gonna pound well over 800 to the ground. Maybe even swap the 2.8 KB for their 3.2. It’s direct fit they’ve told me. This car will finish pushing quad digits when I’m done no matter what it takes with that KB……so yeah I got one of those dominant 2Vs, just not yet on KZbin.

[@RatchetWrenches]

Sounds insane damn! I wanted to go KB but they were on back order for almost 4 months which was ridiculous. I'm sure not their fault. Can't wait to see you hop on youtube I'm sure a ton of people would watch your content

[@kingofkings852]

@@RatchetWrenches it can set your anxiety off waiting for performance mods I know. I ordered and received one of the earliest 2.8 kits they developed for the 2v, way back in 2012. Think I waited close to a year for the release. Wasn’t too bad since I had other toys to ride n enjoy. Yeah I just got it back up n running after the fuel system swap to PTFE lines, along with fully built braced and welded 8.8 and some other goodies. I’ll get them vids rolling now that I’m back in action and be sure to plug you guys so you can see it. Keep up the good work. Found your guys content while looking to turbo or pro charge a 2001 bullitt I might pick up. Be a fun new project. Was lookin at On3 for cost. Rather have hellion tbh.

[@CopperChief]

I have thought about this for awhile and decided to go with a coyote swap instead. More money in the end but with a gen 3 I can get 450hp NA and lots of room to play with.

[@RatchetWrenches]

Coyote swap is an awesome option! Exactly you'll have such a good platform to start on. Best of luck on the build

[@drodriguez1724]

Genuine question, why not just get a gen 3 coyote mustang? The swaps I've seen on KZbin usually run about 20k plus (car included).

[@CopperChief]

@@drodriguez1724 I hate the look of them.

[@sergiomelapelas3378]

450hp ain't much tho

[@angelgjr1999]

@@sergiomelapelas3378 It’s a lot for the light chassis. Remember SN95 mustangs are just Fox bodies with a body kit. :)

[@georgedemas7718]

nice care and nice setup. after spending that kind of money on a turbo system i can't believe you are considering not running an air filter. the air filter protects your turbo and engine. unless you have a trailer queen show car, chose function over looks.

[@RatchetWrenches]

Thanks and I ran it for a little bit and it was crushing the filter so I opted for a screen. A lot of people run the screen even with less fine screen design with no issues. The turbo sits behind the radiator and is very well protected. I've had zero issues with the screen and it functions completely fine. I will eventually make a custom pipe into the fender or something for colder air which then I will switch to a filter at that time.

[@tlucero14]

I was considering this upgrade. Out of curiosity, I was wondering if you knew what your mileage was on the highway after the new injectors and so forth? Thanks

[@RatchetWrenches]

I never really kept track of MPG's but turbo's are supposed to be more efficient for highway cruising

[@cohesiveproductions]

Why are the coilovers in the essential category? I definitely would do it if i did this build but do you have to do the suspension and the k member to make it fit on the car?

[@RatchetWrenches]

Yes pretty much all revolves around fitment since everything is very close together

[@andrewmapes8205]

it is a must to install a tubular k member for the on 3 kit. the piping will not fit with the factory k member.

[@ponycorral99]

And the k members usually require the coils.

[@buddyywilsonn]

Would you recommend this for a 4v? Can this kit handle 1000hp?

[@RatchetWrenches]

I know some guys do the Twin Turbo kit from On3 and hit 1000HP. I believe they have / or are almost done with a top mount mirror twin kit it looks sick. To hit 1000HP with a single turbo probably would have to be a pretty big turbo

[@buddyywilsonn]

@@RatchetWrenches thanks for the fast response. Do I have to remove the actual metal bumper permanently for this to fit under the plastic bumper?

Hey, did you guys need to get an aftermarket fuel pressure regulator or is the stock one fine. Thanks

We ran the stock fuel system and regulator! Worked just fine

Awesome thanks for the reply 👍

[@ClumsyGamerGuy]

😑 I'm coming close to my TT cobra build and that on3 kit is nice but you better give your self another 1k-2k extra. I had to get new oil relocations kit from somewhere else because no eta on back order after being told several times ot would be shipped within the next couple days or weeks etc... and misc little things my kit didn't have full oil feed or drain lines so had to do that. The rack an pinion bolts didn't fit with the tubular front end and they also don't offer chromoly option for it. 🤷‍♂️ I'm sure I'm missing some things.... I know I am but building a drag car is nothing but having fun making memories and mistakes. Definitely a great kit to get started with. I'm 100% going destroy these turbos.

[@RatchetWrenches]

And that's exactly why its priced the way it is cause it's definitely not a complete high quality kit. But for the price you can't beat it and then piece together whatever else you need. Yeah those turbos are probably gonna need an upgrade after half a season lol. Look into precision turbos have heard amazing things

[@ClumsyGamerGuy]

@@RatchetWrenches ya but I got the TT and after I did a bullet wheel upgrade and everything I was setting at 6k could have bought the hellion for what I paid after buying the little misc. But again it is a great starter just need to keep in mind the misc.. things you will need.

[@thelifeofterrell3838]

so spending 5,000 on this build is that safe for it being a daily?

[@RatchetWrenches]

You're never truly "safe" unless you build the bottom end. You can put a very conservative tune on the car and it'll probably last a very long time.

[@TheClapGodSr.]

I was wondering if you guys needed to change your clutch. I’m about to buy the on3 kit and am going for 400hp max so I hopefully don’t break anything. Do you guys think I would need to change the clutch?

[@RatchetWrenches]

I would upgrade the clutch yeah. Not sure what the stock one can handle but my Stage 2 Exedy held 460tq and that was its max. Never can hurt to upgrade it if you're gonna push that much power

Wrapping all your piping and turbo will noticeably shorten their lives. Take it or leave it, call me wrong, it's just my two cents ! Even stainless headers when wrapped, will thin out, and fall apart in far less time than an unwrapped set.

Tune cost? 🙄🙄

[@RatchetWrenches]

Its gonna vary for everyone but mine was $400 I believe

[@RidinDirtyRollinBurnouts]

In my opinion those on3 oil relocation kits are useless. I went with the MMR Oil Filter relocation kit. Much much higher quality, I wouldn't put trust in the regular kit, if you bust a motor mount and the engine torques over, it is liable it to rip those stock lines right off the block or filter and bye-bye oil pressure.

[@RatchetWrenches]

Yeah we upgraded the lines to AN and the third generation oil relocation kit tho is pretty solid so far. Maybe upgrading down the line

[@Westhelockpicker]

I put a vortech supercharger on my 99 gt cheaper than that

[@RatchetWrenches]

Yeah they'll be cheaper, but aren't as efficient and can't make the same power as a turbo does

[@Westhelockpicker]

@@RatchetWrenches they can make just as much boost as a turbo. Mine came with a 3.60 pulley and I put on a 3.33 with bigger injectors but you can go as small on the pulley and get as much boost as you want as long as you give it the fuel and tune
