Ya its a crappy pic. I’ll get more. It needs to be washed really bad. And the weather isn’t good enough to make a video yet.
Ok now she is as clean as it gets before I prep the car for painting. There is also a couple pull videos. I didn’t go from a dead start cuz I don’t want to fuck up the trany till I have a spare. The car is also filled with parts and 3 other people.(testing out the new digital camera on the way back home from the store). Escorts HATE extra weight. And the video sucks too. It looked fine till I uploaded it to photobucket. Its a crappy vid but its and Idea of what I have at the moment. its from 5-90mph
I still love how that thing sounds, you put the muffler on it yet?
Just bought a cheapo turbo muffler from autozone. Once I find a universal 2.25" cat for a decent price I’ll throw everything together. I’m going to grab a exhaust manifold out of the yard, cut the flange off and make a temporary 4-2-1 header till I have enough to put together a turbo setup.
hey you need any shifter bushings? i got 5 pairs of bronzoil ill have enough left for your shifter atleast, but im gettin alot more… heres a teaser for ya…lol…
I already grabbed a set from ford while I was doing the swap. Thanks anyways tho…
Hey I’m cutting the GT in half and getting ready to take it to the yard. I’ll save the interior for you. Its just been way to crazy timewise to get anything done around here. I owe you for those spindals still…
Made my first run with 91escortBASS last Wednesday at cruise night. I ran a 10.90(couldn’t see the speed) with the BP 5-speed swap and he ran a 12.25 with the 1.9 auto. It was sprinkling out and I couldn’t hook up at all off the launch. Will try and get better times next week.
I was thinking holy shit that’s fast for an escort…Then I realized it was 1/8th mile :mamoru:
advance your timing to 18 and run 91 octane get a n/a rx7 vaf tune it
whats the point. To get 5 horse on the top end? might as well go crazy with it. I’m happy with the results.
i wish i could of been there to see that run 
, hopefully next week i will be there to see it
↑↑ Hes just giving you some friendly advise.
Also those are the worst vids i have ever seen.
I will be there next week to embarrass myself again.
Thats great and appreciated but it has nothing to do with traction loss. Not to mention its not cost effective for me to buy a $100 VAF and overpriced cam gear THEN dyno time to tune it when all your gaining is a couple horse and clear up the hickups at high rev.
And about the vids… ya they suck… and I’m preaty sure I mentioned that they sucked in that post.
your choice, i should be there later this summer when i get my issues sorted out with my gtr ecu would like to see what it mine will run
very intrested in seeing your setup bpt sounds awesome! and kellersvt you plan on boosting the escort?
yea it rips took it out the other day just trying to work out an issue with the tps and a vac leak.
10psi is fun want to turn it up to 15 after problem is fixed parts stores are slow
I’d love to. My fiance is nagging me to do it. I have to fund the new Rabbit project and my daily driver is taking a shit. My house is paid off in a couple months so that’ll free up a couple hundred bucks.
We should catch up at Lancaster some time. I’d like to see or maybe go for a ride in that thing to see what I’m getting into. I’ll run ya too. Escort on escort seems to be very common with me. 
It was really crowded this week so I didn’t make a run.
Fixing the cracked stock air intake tube, makes a HUGE difference power wise. I replaced it with intercooler piping. That old plastic sucks
Very interesting build. Good luck with it, and i cant wait to see what it looks like when your finished!
