Engine Heading out for Build
No one probably remembers me. It's been about 3 years, maybe, since I blew my engine. Any ways it's heading down to Pineapple as i type this. Looking at a 500hp engine build. This will include a large street port, s5 rear plate, new housings (included), and Pineapple stage 3 oil mod.
As for style, the housings a vista blue with a carbon fiber finish on top.
Stage 3 Turbo needs to be rebuilt, luckily the turbine is still in tact. Has a lot of shaft play so it will be sent to BNR. Thinking about upgrading to stage 4 but might hold off for now.
Haltech E6X so i don't risk anything.
Supporting mods from there like fuel, etc...
Hope to have it up and running before spring if not sooner.

Yes, lol, I'm the name Kettleman gave me.
Looking forward to the car running again. It's about time as well a deserved treat. Yes, the engine will be going into the T2. I would never give it up. I've put so much money into it, for instance the custom v-mount, that it wouldn't be worth selling.
Pushing more than ever now since I've been seeing a 10A White 88 running around Bellevue. Overall missing the scene especially since all my friends drive modified Subaru's, lol.
To Spyder, the rear rotor lost compression. Usually it's the cause for s4 motors. I tried MMO thinking something would loosen but nothing. Had a forum member come out to confirm its gone. Weird enough it still ran and sounded fine. Just had no power whatsoever.
I blame my v-mount with poor supporting ventilation mods. I had no reserve hood or duct work.

I remember you too.
There's a local guy with a compression tester? ****. Send me their name so I can have mine tested when she's running again. Need to throw the rear end in.
I wanna see your custom V mount. I need to do this to get rid of the retarded custom aluminum hood scoop I have... Yeah, don't ask.

I probably should have went with the stage 3 oil mod to for the larger oil passages.
