id be down for a madbrew run again

 

oh, and i got new rims and tires

 

^^ That is lookin sweet man.^^ I have the next three weeks without classes so im down to clown.

 

hope your new tires are blizzaks lol

looks good though hows it snow drift....

 

they're nitto nt555 so i have no traction on snow lol. i'm going to try to drive her a bit tomorrow but no guarantees. it sucks cause i still have another thousand miles on the break in

 

was the build with new rotor housings and new or lapped irons?

 

new housings but the old irons were good so they got ported out

 

what did he want for break in? i dont do much for my race engines thats just the life of a cracked out race engine lol

 

1500 miles but i think it's a 3 yr warranty lol

 

well thats a bit more than i usually would suggest but not that it will hurt anything thats for sure. heres what ive gathered from a few friends that have built a lot of engines.

1 initial startup- burp coolant and bring to full op temp for half hour and dump oil and change filter.
2. do few heat cycles (bringing to full temp and letting cool till full cooled down)
3. few light driving heat cycles 4000rpm max.
4. few harder driving heat cycles.
5. change oil and filter again
6. if everything is good to go no issues start having all the fun you want!

the seals really wont cut or wear in if you will for a quite some time. if wont really hurt anything but your engine will be very slightly lower compression till things really seat it. but with todays coated and hardened seals this really wont change much at all with break in time

but dont take my amateur word on this it JMO. do what your builder wants.

my personal engine that is in the car now got the start up and initial heat cycles in garage then a two hours on dyno of cycling rpms up and down. then cooled down and tuned right away. and that was my break in lol

 

lol yeah i'm keeping an eye on the water level but they had it pretty good to begin with. i already had 3mm apex seals so those got replaced along with everything else. i have to do an oil change every 500 miles too during break in. going to try and get my 6 point installed next week

 

Late Merry Christmas. Early Happy New Years... Ya'll

 

Does anyone happen to have fuel injectors for an S5 Non-turbo?

 

not unless the stock FD injectors fit. i have those and the rails

 

so just to keep this thread alive here.
whats everyone got planned for winter upgrades??

got a few projects myself
slightly smaller turbo but also billet so mad spool and still make same power
retune
new dampers if i can swing the money for what i want.
modded knuckles angleness stuff

 

Garret 60mm hybrid, 720/1000cc, front mount or v mount maybe, more meth,
Now all I need is an ecu to control it all...

 

i need to cut a bunch of crap to get my cage to fit lol

 

Hoping to get done by Spring

This winter:

Full chassis/engine harness rewire - almost done
New seat rails, 1" lower - not started
Redo engine bay - done
