I am really excited about this turbo though. Just curious to see what the torque curve is going to look like from 3-5500 rpms. Id love to see it on a small street port or even stock port but beggars can't be choosers.

 

Haha David, I thought you might have gotten the boot or something. Good to see you around hehe. I'd like to see what the 9180 could do on my new motor :-)

 

I saw what he did too! Lol! Me personally I'm curious to see what this will do on a semi pp. It should give some indication what this turbo would do on a 20b.

 

Back working on the car hard to finish it by September 1st. Doing an ABS delete, SS Brake lines, Full wire tucking Front BBK and rear brakes as well all by Wilwood.

 

So we cut off the front end and sanded the engine bay down some more.


Love the way this came out, the full tubed front end is going to look great.

 

We also took off the old brakes and rotors and swapped it with a brand new set of Wilwoods. Both front and rear were done. Look at the old ones, they sat for a while, and then look at the new ones!

 

We also just got in recently the rest of my Brake kit and my HSD Monopros

 

It's been a while since i've updated but i've been busy and so has my builder due to a lot of circumstances. Here's an update so far! We finished up the engine bay stripping it down and painting it.

 

 

 

 

Damn man, beautiful progress. i may have to subscribe to this one.

 

this is going to be grrrrrreat!

 

Been getting a lot more work done over here at UPR!

 

Started mocking up the engine for the fabricating that's going to be happening.

 

Sealed up the steering rack and repainted it. Put the new mount bushings in as well.

 

 

I'm going to post more but i'm a little busy right now. There's WAAAAY more progress(;
PS Update:
- Roll cage coming soon.
-Still deciding on a color to spray the whole care (always open to suggestions)
- Custom LIM coming soon.

We're moving fast trying to finish this car ASAP.

 

Can't wait to see that tube frame, are you keeping the pop ups with that?

 

I'm still thinking about it Stevexk, I would like to but i'm also interested in the evo r demon eyes. Especially since we're wire tucking everything.

 

This build is top shelf, love the attention to detail!

 

Thanks Glease man! The products you produce at your shop are TOP SHELF! The guys at UPR Mike & Jonathan have such attention to detail and are trying to put out something crazy. This has always been my dream build, it was unexpected but i'm glad i'm doing it!

If anyone hasn't checked out Glease Manufacturing go give them a look and like their facebook page too! I loved it, just checked it out recently!

 

It's coming along as fast as I can build it. Cage starts next week.
