i have an 89 with a 306 in it. it has a 70 mm bbk tb. this car used to be supercharged but when i bought the car it was no longer in it. they put the stock air box in it with the stock rubber piping. i think the air meter is also back to stock. how do i know if this is stock or if it is still upgraded. if its stock what do i need to get for a meter. the car has 70 mm tb and 30# injectors. any help wou;d be great thanks guys
yeah the car runs good from what i can tell. this is my first real mustang. i had a v6 before. im not really sure what its supposed to run like. ive never dynoed the car but people tell me i should be like 330 horse. i dont think thats right but idk. im not really sure but i wouldnt say it has 330 horse
if you wanna swing by the shiesta shop in middleboro i can stick my nose into your business and tell you what you got, feel free to call or text me 508-967-4402-shiesta tim
idk what size it is or what its calibrated for but thats deff an aftermarket mass air meter and mike it should make around 280 hp, i saw this car in person before its deff legit with a cam and heads if i can remember correctly....
looks like a C&L 80mm with stock electronics( or whatever u call it). PROBLY only tuned for 19lb's unless you have a chip in the computer...those are 30lbs injectors.
i dont really know what all that will put out for hp but it does have some sac. but anyways is there anyway to be able to tell what it has i was reading on a site selling meters they say that the meter is for a cobra 75mm for 19 or 24# injectors it will work for either. but they also go ahead and say that i can get a chip in my computer and use that meter. just with the different chip
C&L meters use stock electronics , but use calibration tubes to match injectors . There should be markings on the tube ... I think they are color coded . Find out what color you have in the meter and reference it on C&L 's web site . On a final note 30's are to big for your set up in my opinion . 24's would work better ... for drivability and response . Also your car should be around 290 rwhp with that combo .

x2 thats around the power i thought the car should have and 24's would deff be better for that car
I could be wrong but i thought i checked your car out at plymouth that night. I didnt notice the heads. if you recently put the heads on that could be why its running different. And you should make signifignatly more power with those heads over stock.

ok guys i started this thread not knowing a thing lol but the meter is a cl. Its also a 73mm its stamped in the thing. And inside the meter is a red marker mark. I havent been on the site yet but im getting the. Im also going to be putting a supercharger back on the car, or a twin turbo setup. Not really sure what i want. But the 30's will be fine for those setups let me know what you think i should do for boost. Thanks again for the help
30's will work for low boost( no more than 10 ) with an FMU . If it were me I would drop in the 42's and at least a 75 mm meter calibrated to work with the forced induction.. when you get it . It's not just matching inj. to the meter .... if you read into them they are calibrated to work with cold air kits or blower , turbo combo's .
thanks guys sounds good. i think for now i just want to put in a low boost supercharger. i was thinking like 10-12 psi. john was telling me the other day a low boost charger is an a trim. i think thats all i want for now. it will be like everything else though your never satisfied. so i think ill put the low boost charger in first then probably eventually go bigger lol but thanks for the help keep letting me know with more info and what you think
yesterday is history tomorrow is a mystery
