Bjonnes, Long Outfit Jon Lund-Owned 2011 GT With Twin Turbo System

In all of the Mustang builds-ups that come across our desk, the vast majority are supercharged, and for good reason. The kits are relatively affordable, readily available, and fairly easy to install. What we don’t see a lot of however, are turbocharged cars, simply due to the higher costs, the limited number of turnkey systems on the market, and the more advanced skills to perform the installation. But make no mistake about it; for those that pursue the the turbocharger route, the results are certainly worth the time and money.

Ken Bjonnes recently illustrated this fact in fine fashion with a 2011 5.0L Mustang owned by fellow renowned tuner Jon Lund. Bjonnes teamed with Jake Long to design and built the twin turbocharger system you see under the hood of this automatic-equipped 2011, complete with an air-to-water intercooler system. To compliment the turbo combination, Bjonnes has fitted the stock intake with Ford Racing’s 47-pound injectors modified to flow 75-pounds.

The result, you ask? An impressive 565 rear wheel horsepower at just 7 psi, and 605 horses at 9 psi. And these numbers were recorded without any ice in the intercooler chest. Bjonnes indicated that he’s yet to play with the VCT (Variable Cam Timing), but the turbo reaches the point of spooling at about 4,000 RPM as it sits. With some more tuning this week and the addition of the Drag Radials, Lund and Bjonnes are hoping to push this largely stock beast into the high 10’s, with the ultimate goal of reaching the eights utilizing an upcoming short block build designed to handle some 1,200 horsepower that this twin turbo setup can deliver.
