Neverending Widebody TII build
 
It's been a long time since I have worked on my car. I was a bit discouraged from my gas tank leaking and had issues finding a solution. Now I've gotten some time and energy to tinker away on it again. Got it running for the first time in a few years!!

Awesome Dan!

Glad to see you back!

What widebody kit is that? Looks like a Pacifica rear end but the front fenders I don't recognize.

Nice car! Must be running an FD UIM with an adapter to the LIM of the TII engine you're running?

The kit was the full cp racing kit (last I saw it was now offered by black dragon). Yes that's an adapter plate to run the FD UIM. This setup made 320 rwhp on low boost when it was tuned a few years ago.

Oh alright, I understand. I can see the front of the car in another video of yours so I could see that it was a CP racing one.

Just curious now, are you on an S5 keg or an S4 keg? 320 on low boost with your big turbo means you must have much more room for hp improvement! :egrin:

I'm running a bit of a Frankenstein engine. The donor engine was initially from a JDM s5. Upon tearing the engine down found one apex seal had failed damaging the housing and a lot of the internals but the irons were good.

So I have s5 irons, street ported. S4 rotors (for the lower compression), and s4 housings with street ported exhaust. (because I was able to get a good set locally when building the engine).

When I got the car tuned, I think the tuner figured that I was running a s4 block due to the rotor housings. He kept the boost pretty mild fearing a broken rear iron. I am running the "medium sized dowel land" rear iron at the moment but from my understanding it should hopefully get me to the 400rwhp range with higher boost. I want to break the engine in, and fix all the bugs before increasing the boost.
