On 3 Performance is proud to announce the newest coyote turbo system that we have developed for the S550 chassis Mustang 5.0 cars. As you may know, we have been selling our top mount system since about 2017. Sales have been strong and people like the kit however a lot of people really want to be able to keep from moving the fuse box and ECU.
We have designed what we believe is the most economical, and easily installable twin turbo kit for the S550 platform. While the turbos may not be as visually appealing to some being under the car, but the performance with fit and finish of this kit is unbeatable. We used some of the best products we have access to in order to design this new system. Starting with the manifolds, we designed a new high flowing tubular manifold, our top of the line billet center section, oil-less turbochargers with our V-banded inlet flange. This makes for unlimited adjustment and one simple clamp to secure the turbocharger in place. Not only does this make for an easier install, it also has its power gains being that you are flowing air from a round pipe directly into a round housing. Traditional housings are rectangle shaped and the transition will create a turbulence that has been proven to lose horsepower over our design. During our testing, we have proven the On 3 64mm turbos to 873hp wheel mark on only 12.5psi with e-85 (100% stock engine, trans so we stopped there). If you are building the engine or willing to push the stock engine, the base kit with the 6466 turbos to start are capable of 1350 wheel hp. Then we have upgrade options that range from the 6766 to 6870's capable of 1700-1800hp. With this series turbo we use, it uses water cooling only and then a high temp synthetic grease. Super easy to maintain with a simple grease fitting in the center section and about 5 pumps of grease every oil change.
This is a true bolt on system that has the potential to put your Mustang 5.0 directly into the 9's. Moving on from the turbos, we were able to incorporate dual 3.0" 304 stainless steel downpipes to clear all accessories. This will bolt up directly to the MRBP cat-back listed in the upgrade options. The downpipes are v-banded and route below the car to tie into the cat-back. As far as boost control and wastegates go, we designed the kit around a set of our compact 44mm On 3 wastegates. These are v-banded for a quick and easy install and the dump tubes are routed back through the downpipes. If you are not familiar with turbo systems, the wastegates are what control boost and they are setup out of the box for roughly 6-7psi. This should be enough to yield the car with over 600rwhp. Our shop car put down a little over 600rwhp on 93 octane on wastegate spring only before adding more boost. 10psi made 693hp on 93 and then we made the switch to E85.
Even with this kit being a mid-mount kit and the turbos underneath, there is zero issues with ground clearance, even with lowering springs. The cold side tubing is all fabricated from 6061 aluminum and each pipe is bead rolled to ensure the couplers stay in place while under boost. Also standard with our turbo system you will receive stainless t-bolt clamps which provide the most clamping pressure possible instead of an old school worm clamp. Our couplers are made from 5-ply silicone so they will hold up to virtually any demand. As far as the intercooler goes, this is the same 3.5" core design we have used for the last 2 years in our already 1000+hp proven low mount system, and we also have the 5" upgraded for those wanting to make well into the 4 digits.

Lets talk drivability since so many people want to put miles on their cars. If you have a proper tune, your car should drive like stock until you are into the gas. Clearly there is going to be a HUGE difference WOT but in most cases, there is absolutely no reason you cannot daily drive a turbo car. Fuel economy should remain close to the same and some instances, you can gain fuel economy. As far as reliability goes, we have 5.0 coyote Mustang customers with 50k miles on their cars with boost. You are going to notice better low end acceleration outside of WOT situation as they start making boost in the lower RPM range. Meaning part throttle from traffic light to traffic light, there is undoubtedly an improvement you are going to feel.
What do I need to finish off my install??? This question is asked on a daily basis and it all comes down to what power you plan to make. First is fuel, if you plan to stick with 93oct, your stock fuel system is good to around 650rwhp with just an injector upgrade. If you plan to run e-85, we have a full fuel system and an upgraded plastic fuel hat kit that to meet your goals. You will need that if your planning on e-85 or going over 650rwhp. Everyone knows the factory 5.0 oil pump gears are weak. Most stock engine failures we see are caused by these failing, not piston or rods. We suggest you add and upgrade your OPG and crank sprocket when purchasing the turbo system. As you will notice we have many upgrades available which you can select. Some are highly recommend and others are optional to make the installation that much easier. Please run real time quotes on our site with the items we suggest for your power level to create a real time quote. Only you can select what options you want/need
