lots of heat
Front Iron prob cracked because of detonatin at that boost level. I cracked a rear one because of it 2 seasons ago.
One suggestion since she will need an overhaul; I would change to a v-mount or h-mount setup, way better than the big wall of intercooler. I had major probs at the track with oil temps. Blew a turbo that way. Coolant was not very good either even with a koyo. Unless you plan on making a duct to the oil cooler some how under or around the IC. Anyway just a thought.
Car looks prestine and the airbrush looks good too
Here are some pics of what im working on this winter.

Damage on the door looks like some crazy person bit the door
After some body work got it in primer starting to look better. notice no front bumper bit that not it yet.
this is the base coat dull and boring!
then came the clear coat and we started to look good
from no paint to new paint it looks great. you did an amazing job.

and straight alcohol auxiliary injection will not really support 25psi+ for long if at all. straight water actually will with pump gas. E85 can be done non sumped with an upgraded supply line and even a single pump as there are new high flowing pumps out there that should push close to 500whp on E85 with a single pump setup.
almost looks like you lost another rear iron in the picture with the trail of oil behind the car. that's just too much for that setup.
E85 alone is good for about 30psi before you have to worry again about getting close to knock threshholds but getting enough fuel through the system is a little more tricky than pump gas.
but it's good to see people with perseverence these days, so many people give up easily. trial and error are sometimes your friend no matter how painful it may be, in the end the satisfaction is worth it. i have had plenty of problem cars in the shop and i can't merely push them out and give up.

The Engine
i started doing some porting and its going well i found an amazing tool for polishing ports.
got the motor studded and starting at 20lbs of boost on E85
polishing looks good
plenty of airflow

No offense, but those intake ports arent finished are they?
Also, what's with the bolts stuck in the rotor housing where the OMP squirters go? That's not how you plan to delete the OMP is it?
Btw, not trying to hate..... I *do* like your thread title

I blocked my squirters off with a small head bolt and a crush washer. Worked like a charm on my race engine. many others have done the same.

on the ports question they are not done that was a reference to how smooth they will be if you look on the inlet they are like a mirror i have finished pics but i didn't want to post them because i do not want to show the tool that i invented to do this otherwise everyone would do it and its how i make some side money. and i only had pics of me doing this with the told i made so i choose to leave that out.
