Going more and more excessive on everything. Over kill maybe, but better safe then sorry. Time for a turbo manifold. I'm sure I will come up with something interesting.

One day oh yes I will be straight Meth when I 4 link and 3/4 chassis it. For now I'm going to run E85 or E98 with a water meth injection kit. I will see where I get. That's a sick setup man any more pics?

Whatever I can get my hands on whether to install, and wire or tune doesn't matter. I don't really care for piggy back ECU's just straight up EMS.

Made the effort to start getting the electrical setup, looks to be taking shape.

The body kit is a B magic body kit. It took about 6 months of work to get it to fit honestly, I don't know any body kit manufacturer that fits perfectly though, they all need work.

74 welds and notch fitting the tubing for the cage, and it's finally over. Thank the Lord that was a PITA! Twin disk went in as well, pedal feels great I'm liking the progress.

maybe I missed something, but why did you decide to run FD internals? Are you trying to run high boost?

S5 rotors are the same compression and weight as FD no difference. But yes game plan is to turn the boost up if I have to.

Are you referring to na rotors or t2 rotors from an s5. Because there is a difference in compression between the two. I was assuming you replaced the s5 na rotors (9:7:1) with the fd (9:0:1), which is why I asked.

What???? The motor that is in the car is a JDM S5 turbo block and rotating assembly. There are no NA parts used. If your in reference to the motor that I built 10 years ago was a 89 NA motor with FD internals that I still have, I just wore the **** out of the end plates. That was boosted at 20 pounds.

And yes I was in reference to the S5 "turbo" rotors, they are the same compression and weight as FD rotors. I don't use NA rotors in my builds for boost.
