gutted the entire interior, I'm going to roll cage the car

 

a little teaser photo

 

Keep up the great work

 

Figure ill update this for anyone who is interested, kinda lost motivation but things will be picking up fast after the engine bay is painted.. Thanks to addicted performance for my motor build






EFR 9180 Turbo

Turbosmart wastegate and blow off valve

Chips motorsports grooved out my Xcessive Lower intake manifold

Shine Auto Front fenders, bumper rear diffuser and side skirts


I also purchased (6) ASNU 1650 fuel injectors

 

You got coilovers too? Post em up. weather shouldmbe great starting tuesday here. Gonna start my car and start working in it

 

yup aha everything is sitting in my room.. ill put them on after i paint the engine bay incase some paint gets on them

 

Nice update. hope u stay motivated to work on this. Car should be awesome when ur done

 

Where did you get them? What spring rates?

 

12k/12k i got them from race consulting agency.. talk to Max

 

The grooved LIM is a great idea. What did they charge for that?

 

I actually wanted to ask what is the purpose of it

 

It is to make sure it seals better than the OEM gasket.

 

120$ and he got it done same day for me, so no complaints.. i need a gasket anyways so this was a better investment

 

Cool , but I just don't get how the groove are suppose to seal better ? You mean you put o-ring ? And gasket ...

Sorry for being a noob here

 

you get rid of the gasket and just use orings

 

ok so things are going to be moving faster now (finally) my crazy life puts me all over the place

Big shout out to addicted performance for my short block!


my oil pan looked like garbage so i stripped all the paint, cleaned it up and repainted it. Also it has the Elite Rotary Oil Pan brace


IRP Filler neck, looks great and great quality


Addicted Performance manifold ceramic coated



Oil pressure sensor so i can read it off my adaptronic ecu


coolant port blocked off, I also blocked off the heater core port. I was reading some guys were using a 1/8" npt port.. I tried that but i didnt like the fitment (didnt feel tight enough) so i drilled it and went 1/4" npt


the block is also studded


Borg Warner EFR 9180 Turbo, 0.92 housing with turbosmart blow off valve and waste gate. Also the smart coils are in the same location as last time

 

F%#* YEAH !!! Been waiting for updates for awhile now

 

Awesome Glad to see it coming together! Let us know if you need anything else for the build and thanks again for all the support.

 

Test fitted the dash

 

this should be fun to rip on the streets.. just made the bracket

 

You're gonna want to flock that dash. No one likes a shiny dash in the sun.

 

i pulled it outside, its not bad and that was in direct sun.. this was taken under my shop light and also glare from the camera

 

So how are things going for you and your beast , throw us some pics !!!

 

Unfortunately life is taking up most of my time, i got my engine bay blasted.. i might just pay someone to do the body work and paint the bay so i can get rolling again

 

just a couple pictures of the motor pretty much ready to drop in.
