Blew my motor back in October. I saw it as a good thing only because my engine bay was crap and needed alot of work. Decided to to everything right and make it look like a new car. This is when i started to take everything apart.

 

Got the engine bay painted in Black. Thought it would look sick with the outside red and engine bay black.

 

Then the fun began, lots of wrenching. Putting the body back together. Snad blasted all my parts getting it ready for powdercoating.

 

Got everything powdercoated. Got a fresh rebuild motor put in.

 

How its sitting now. Still not finished still need to do the fuel setup, throttle body and elbow, run intercooler piping etc the fun stuff. Plan on taking more pics as i go on. Its come a long way.

 

looks great man

 

Why did it blow?

 

thanks

Wasnt fully tuned so it bit me in the ***

 

Even with the E85? Must have been pretty far off on timing and/or split

 

Car looks great! I like the seats.

 

what kind of turd is it? looking nice

 

not being fully tuned it is pretty easy to blow your motor, you can literally do it one time extended full boost

looks good!

 

Very nice ecko. Any chance of the car making it to Rotorfest? Also can you PM me whos doing your sand blasting/powder coating?

 

thanks everyone, yea i was getting on the car when it blew i should had been smarter knowing it wasnt tuned but we all get carried away sometimes.

Nick i pmed you.

 

Very nice!

 

Looks great! Love the color scheme. What kind of turbo?

 

Thanks, its a garrett turbo picked up from a forum member a while back. Honestly do know what type it is but everything was rebuilt on it.
