My project has begun

[SOLISIMO]

2012 Limited lowered with 23" Saleen's powder coated satin black. The suspension was a pain in the a55 bc they do not make one after 2010. Im currently in the process of doing a Saleen s331 replica. The front grille will be hydro dipped in carbon fiber. Looking to see if the either Kooks or Stainless works long tubes from an 09-10 f150 work on the Expedition. Intake is on the way and also researching the saleen blowers.

Those wheels are sick!

lol....that mustang in the garage kept me busy for a while. It took a while to find the wheels since they are discontinued from Saleen. Nice to see some old faces

If you are looking for a blower my vote is a 2.9 whipple. I've got one that should be in this week and then I will start the teardown and install. Not sure where it'll end up but I'd be happy in the 420-450 whp 420+ wtq range on E85. I know you are kind of screwed in FL with the lack of E85 (I hate not having it when I am at our FL house). But high test should work ok too but you just won't be able to run quite as much boost and timing.

To me that isn't enough blower for engine especially if you ever look at really modding the engine, cams, headers, highflow cats. The reason I went with the whipple is it's size. The whipple is cranking out 2.9L per rev to that units 2.3L per rev. Meaning your getting 20% more air per revolution, this does several things but one of which is keep your charge air temps lower thus increasing power.

Yeah I spoke with JDM Engineering. They also said that it would be a pain to install bc the fuel rails would need to be custom. They said to look into the eforce kit. Did you research that one too or just the whipple

Yes but again it's the smaller of the two blowers. Personally my blower of choice is whipple.
