    No, porting the LIM is completely pointless unless going for a intercooler set-up.

    so what you guys are telling me is 2step is only for manual cars? then why is it that i know of about 3 turbo automatic mustangs that go nines explain that one to me. and i wasnt planning on just keeping everything stock beside the pulley im not stupid there would be supporting mods that go along with it ive asked on here before what the best way to go about the supporting mods but i got no response.

    In your first post you dont say you are going to do supporting mods, you just say u want a 3.0 pulley.. So thats why everyone jumped on u.. Did u think we are mind readers?

    Every thread you make you should assume no one knows /read your other threads( advice not trying to be mean).
    As for the smart asses they are in every car forum so get used to them lols

    Ya there's a few that are true 2steps not trans brakes.. And five finger that's what I was wondering, but while we have the blower off could do it if its cheap enough just to have it done when we do the intercooler

    and what supporting mods should i go with i have the autolite 104 spark plugs in right now the headers and down pipe a going on soon. with i have to get into the internals to go down to a 3.0 pulley or with stock bottom end eable to hold it. ive heard that a intercooler doe very well with these cars so i plan on doing that. im just trying to figure out what all ill need to do so i can figure out what kinda money im going to put into this car.

    Stock bottom end will take whatever you throw at it. To run a 3.0 you need either E85, ic, cam, or meth.

    FWIW, there are tons, I mean tons, of auto cars, with trans brakes, and 2 step. I actually just raced a turbo mustang yesterday, with a trans brake, and 2 step. The trans brake isn't to build power, its to hold the power. You can't expect the front tires/brakes to hold back a bunch of power (I'm talking rwd car), so the trans brake holds the power. The two step is to help set launch rpm and to build boost. Now, in this guys case, he wants 2 step because he thinks it would be cool, and to help set launch rpms. If he stalls to the full stall speed, he spins, if he stalls differently (not sure where) he doesn't spin, but is probably a little bit slower than what he would of been, had he launched petal to the floor already. Is it going to make a world of difference in his car? No probably not, stickier tires would probably help him more than anything else. But that's what he wants.

    To the couple of nutsacks that dont think you can put 2step on an auto, you should probably put your helmets back on, and go sit in the corner.
