Hey guys haven't updated in a while. Ive done quiet a bit since last update!
I just got a new motor as the last one I cooked it on the burnout pad lol!!
The turbo setup is nearly done, once I put the new motor in it will just be a matter of tuning it.
The best thing about using this motor is the minimal stuff you have to do to run boost through them, I'm loving the standard 8.5:1 comp ratio lol! I've added some larger 42lb injectors, 3 bar map sensor and a reprogrammable memcal so I can run the standard ecu.
I done a bit to the front end too, i spot welded up the seams on the top of the strut towers, now that I pulled the old motor out I can do inside the engine bay aswell. Then I'll just give everything a coat of paint and it should look pretty slick!
I fitted some rear bolt on flares aswell, i was too lazy to weld on so flares plus I got the flares pretty cheap.
With the interior I've removed the whole dash and removed the foam padding on the back of the firewall. While the dash was out I painted it matt black, it came up really good!! Plus I added a push button starter, battery isolator. I'm also modifying the original cluster, I love the standard look, so I'm trying to interrogate a electronic speedometer into the cluster so I don't have to run a cable but also makes it easier to get the speedo to be accurate. Also I like red so i fitted so red led back lights and changed the dirty green cluster lens and fitted a clear one. Now the cluster is more visible.
I'm so excited I get this thing running and on the track. Thanks
