month back we went Ridge racin and we notice that Archie had a heat coolant issue and sure enough i guess sometime last week the water jacket seal and god only knows what else gave out. So Archie is ***-ed out!!!! I'm scared to even approach Archie about the issue, just info i gather from Teddy that's all. Home boy teddy is consulting him on all aspects of his fiasco......

Nice to see Daves' spirit living on. I think you got one of the very last motors he built. Good Luck bro, and great build up.

sadly i think the turbo needs a rebuild.....but I am moving past that. I will be moving toward the gt35r and a larger fuel system.

I also think I got one of Dave's last motors. The first time I started it up, it fired up within a few seconds and held 1500 perfectly. Now it starts great everytime and it's only got 30 miles on it. I'm sure he's happy about it finally doing what it was built to do.

Man things have taken a toll for the worse...I have to scrap the T2. Long story, bad story. But hopefully out of the ashes something else will come.

So here we go. I ended up having major title issues. I couldn't get one. So I bought a white s4 base shell and transferred almost every single part over. Drove it NA on the T2 drivetrain for awhile then swapped in my red and black turbo motor with a stock turbo.

Still tracking?

So I ported the wastegate and drove it at 12 lbs for awhile then lost compression in the rear rotor. I'm thinking it wasn't an apex seal since the front rotor is also losing compression and it will still idle.

Ok now to the current events. I'm close to getting my hands on a 13b-re engine and finally getting that damn borg warner on it. It's been a rough year or so but I think I can finally move forward to the setup I really want.

In the next few weeks I hope to be opening the engine to see what is reusable. Soon after that I hope to be opening a 13b-re engine.....

I got no other pictures so here's one of my new fuel setup.
