GSL-SE engine bay
 

Well, my motor is done. It has been rebuilt and painted. I have been rebuilding the complete suspension and brakes. Other than the rear cargo area and some small stuff (other than painting the car) she is about complete.

Here is a motor shot and a door panel shot.

And yes that is a S4 intake, TB, rotors, and streetported housings in a gsl-se.

Do you plan on getting it dynoed at all?
If not, I'd at least appreciate a 'by-the-butt' comparison of before and after (with the S4 intake, and streetporting and such)
Looks very nice :-)

I would like to get it dynoed one day if I can get one pass for cheap.

The by the butt feel, feels nice and powerful but while the car was down I changed alot of things so not too sure. And I also drove my 91 TII a couple of time before getting this one back.
I have spoke with two friends and were gonna see how it compares to their 7's.
One is a GTUs and the other a S4 TII with the s5 upgraged turbo, intakes, rebuild with streetport, computer and exhaust. So after this I should have an idea.

Hope to be near 190 at the rear wheels. If I can crack the 200 mark I am done.

Here is what the GSL-SE is,

Paint outside of car

maybe then I will be done and can finish my 91 TII
Thought about going to the s5 lower intake and the FD upper intake. Not too sure the gain from that though.

Here is the car with the panasports on it before all the work above was done.

That's nice looking. 200 ponies is a respectable number too.

Chad that turned out VERY nice.... man your car is sweet. Can't wait to see it in person...AGAIN!

BRAP< BRAP BRAP!

Looks great, what size/offset are those Panasports? They fill out the fenders really well.

I will have to look. I got them off a s4
The rubber is a 215 instead of the normal 205

chad i know u want to let me buy those wheels for 400$ right? and im local! oh and howd u get no emissions and still pass in TN? oh and im serious about the wheels

Sorry but I have over 600 in the rims and tires and have not even been able to use them yet. When I first put them on the 7 they rubbed the fender wells under braking due to the spring being old. In a week or two I will put them on an see what happens now, but they might be going up for sale if they still run under braking or i might change tire size on the fronts.

As for the tn thing........ we have no testing in my county.
BTW- when are you gonna come out with us one day? I am interested in seeing what the carb'ed 13b can do.

CHad

yeah ill be really interested in buying those wheels for even 600. and as of right now i have the 45dcoe on it, but i just bought the holley manifold and around june will be installing the carb and manifold along with exhaust. and im down to hang out, but u u guys never tell me a day. plus i want to get some people together to help me install a 2nd gen rad into my se... just let me know pimpin
