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.

i never had a problem with heat, i did a tauras fan with a shroud and my car has never gotten hotter than 185 its sweet i love it. to make your oil temps drop try changing the lines to -10 an it worked great for me even with the stock cooler. its spendy but worth it.

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.

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.
thanks for the info. the funny thing is is the trail of oil is from the front iron. i guess we torqued it hard enough to break it. I was expecting the rear but it was the front. not bad hahahahah

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

Rather than leaving it open why don't you explain why you ask?

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.
