Are you looking for a Mustang turbo?Now let us see what did he build his 2001 Ford Mustang Gt with our GT45 turbo.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why did I want to rebuild my turbo?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I have utilized ON3 turbo for little over 3 years and it has done great things. The spool up time is great due to the medium sized exhaust and AR side and me running a V8 was a good fit. However, I found myself running out of room higher in the rpms. 5k or more area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, I can make more \u201cboost\u201d in the higher Rpms but was I getting affective power, well not really. I was able to see a little drop off around 5200 rpm which to most wouldn\u2019t notice or care much. Most people just want to feel that pulling feeling from the turbo ASAP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2992\" height=\"2992\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.maxpeedingrods.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20220615_185413.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7806\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><figcaption>Mustang turbo build-MaXpeedingRods GT45<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Comparation between maxpeedingrods GT45 and ON3 76\/65<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Well, I decided to upgrade and get something a bit and when I say a bit, I mean a lot bigger. I was able to talk to maxpeedingrods&nbsp;and they sent me their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maxpeedingrods.com\/product\/gt45-turbo-charger-v-band-600bhp-t4-v-band-flange-105-ar-66-twin-scroll.html?tracikng=blog\"><u>gt45<\/u><\/a>&nbsp;turbo for my Mustang. When I opened the box, I mean wow this turbo is massive. I was overly concerned about turbo lag at this point. Both turbos mounting flange are exactly the same so mounting it was easy. I purchased a new oil feed and return kit so that old parts weren\u2019t used. The hot side is bigger than 3in so I found a v-band adapter from compressor to my exhaust that matted up very nice. I did however get the new turbo painted to match my engine which I think came out amazing. After installation which wasn\u2019t difficult at all I was eager to test drive the vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.maxpeedingrods.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/IMG_20220615_194529_268.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7804\" width=\"726\" height=\"726\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><figcaption>Mustang Turbo build<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Upon my first test drive I was able to notice the turbo spooling and how she screams when spooling has started. My old turbo never did that. My bov was much louder and very noticeable when it went off which definitely made me smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Onto&nbsp;the&nbsp;te<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@boosted5.1\/video\/7118567743389207854\">st&nbsp;drive<\/a>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From&nbsp;a&nbsp;V8&nbsp;standpoint&nbsp;this&nbsp;turbo&nbsp;takes&nbsp;a&nbsp;bit&nbsp;to&nbsp;spool&nbsp;like&nbsp;3800&nbsp;4200&nbsp;rpms&nbsp;area.&nbsp;That\u2019s&nbsp;pretty&nbsp;high&nbsp;if&nbsp;you&nbsp;do&nbsp;not&nbsp;have&nbsp;power&nbsp;band&nbsp;to&nbsp;pull&nbsp;it&nbsp;off.&nbsp;Thankfully&nbsp;I&nbsp;have&nbsp;a&nbsp;fully&nbsp;built&nbsp;v8&nbsp;that&nbsp;can&nbsp;pull&nbsp;higher&nbsp;rpms.&nbsp;Taking&nbsp;it&nbsp;down&nbsp;the&nbsp;road&nbsp;she&nbsp;will&nbsp;spool&nbsp;and&nbsp;will&nbsp;not&nbsp;stop.&nbsp;I&nbsp;mean&nbsp;the&nbsp;smile&nbsp;on&nbsp;my&nbsp;face&nbsp;hearing&nbsp;it&nbsp;scream&nbsp;down&nbsp;the&nbsp;road&nbsp;is&nbsp;utterly&nbsp;amazing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So,&nbsp;I&nbsp;will&nbsp;stick&nbsp;with&nbsp;the&nbsp;gt45&nbsp;for&nbsp;now&nbsp;currently&nbsp;going&nbsp;to&nbsp;swap&nbsp;my&nbsp;rear&nbsp;gears&nbsp;to&nbsp;try&nbsp;to&nbsp;offset&nbsp;my&nbsp;current&nbsp;4.10&nbsp;gears&nbsp;which&nbsp;allows&nbsp;me&nbsp;to&nbsp;load&nbsp;the&nbsp;turbo&nbsp;more&nbsp;which&nbsp;means&nbsp;I&nbsp;can&nbsp;stay&nbsp;in&nbsp;boost&nbsp;longer&nbsp;before&nbsp;switching&nbsp;gears.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Overall,&nbsp;yes,&nbsp;this&nbsp;turbo&nbsp;is&nbsp;great&nbsp;for&nbsp;the&nbsp;price.&nbsp;The&nbsp;quality&nbsp;is&nbsp;also&nbsp;great.&nbsp;For&nbsp;the&nbsp;price.&nbsp;Customer&nbsp;service&nbsp;has&nbsp;been&nbsp;top&nbsp;notch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\">Above all about what Anthony build his Mustang with our GT45.
