omg

 

any numbers yet?

 

Spun a bearing at 28 psi....... stock S4 TII motor with 100K miles didn't like the abuse I guess.....

 

all that trouble and you didn't bother spending time on the engine .. tsk tsk

 

no time......

 

Your car looks awesome!

If the engine your building is anything like the car you built then you'll be just fine! g/l

 

The car is 10x sicker in person than pictures. The turbo can eat a baby, the fab work on the tub is excellent, and the downpipe is MASSIVE! I had no clue it was a 5" until I got there. It has more of a diameter than my neck!


A few pics of it.

 

Thanks justin.... here is a video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lo0Yd...e=channel_page

 

Is the popping backfires in the other video? Looks really nicely balanced on the dyno. Awesome work so far !

Engine is always the second last thing you do to your car, body being last (unless it's real bad).

Otherwise you get mustang-itus to much power overloading your chassis. You get faster quicker by hitting the suspension and drive-tran.

 

i loved the backfire vid

lol so funny

 

It all looks really good eric.

pity about the spun bearing, at least it give you and excuse to go semi pp

 

Mean looking FB!

 

This is exactly how I am doing my car. It has its ups and downs though. The car will be ready for the motor when it goes in, but damn, I want more power now!


I like where this is going.

 

those were the days

 

Just finished reading the entire thread. SO addicting. Cant wait to see what you have in store next!

 

Just checking in/subscribing, I love builds like this.

 

Well, my RX7 is FOR SALE/TRADE

Whatt!!!!!

 

Why don't you sell off the 80mm turbo and go with something smaller? Learn the car, tune the suspension, learn how to drive (you said in your f/s ad that it's far beyond your driving talent), then upgrade your turbo? It's better than loosing 7k on the car.

 

+1

 

Weird... I can't see the For Sale ad, keep getting an error. In any case, Why are you trying to sell the car? Its just as easy to limit power as it is to make it, if its too much for you right now, then retard the power until you get more comfortable.

 

Looks like someone deleted it
