87 turbo ranger

[Endoverend47]

Looks good but looks like it's running rich as hell.

she's running rich at idle, freeway cruising is at 13.5-14.4 and under full boost at 5500rpm its at 11.5-12, which according to my friend who builds 500hp 1jzs you want it rich when the computer goes closed loop under full boost at wot

 

[Hahnsb2]

Under boost sounds good, I shoot for 12 as I hit boost and drop it to 11.5 after a few PSI. That's a little rich at cruise though.

i know I'm just kinda holding out until i can afford the standalone system...the turbo computer works well but its from an auto so its actually detuned 40hp from a manual computer...so there are HUGE hp gains to be had when i get a full custom tune running. plus better rich then lean!

better rich than lean is right! nice trucks! diggin' the mazda..

[NMB2]

[flyinryne]

First glad to hear hes alright....but gonna ask the question lol......Sooo if its rolled would it be too soon to ask if your gonna part some of it out or are you keepin it all.

 

[turboranger27]

where did you find the dual piston front calipers that bolt on?

no not too soon. but im keeping it all to swap into another truck...trying to find a first gen extended cab...but im going for show quality on everything this time so it will be a slower build.


as for the calipers...im running 89-97 djm lowering beams. so i took the knuckles off a 95-97 that have the twin piston bolt on calipers.

Question, when you put the mustang rims on it, did you have to shave some of your wheels out to get ovr the front hubs. Pm me please.

 

[antiqueranger83]

nice truck

rangerking the mustang wheels most of the years 83-89 the front hubs need too be shaved down and allso u need spacers too got mine from advance auto parts but my truck is a 83 with 17" bullitts and thats what i did. The owner of the truck on this forum is ur truck hydroboosted brakes? Im either blind or didnt see a brake booster in pics or u must got hydroboost or something like the truck u need too save some cash and get some ebc rotors for it and stop on a dime then and allso look better. Ive got hids in mine and have the stock look alike headlights in mine thats made out of glass just like stocks hehe confuses people
