Project Spyder 2009 Build

[95talonracer]

Well I have an update to the build. I put on an FP race manifold, 4" intake, new entire rear end, kyb gr2's with eibach pro kit, more fuel, new sparco seats, no COP but stock coil and wires instead, Tial 38mm v-band wastegate, and more. I went in and got it aligned and have an appointment for Shane to do his magic next week. I am crossing my fingers to hit 5xx hp.

Can't wait to see some numbers on this thing man! You finally decided to bring it to Shane huh?

[95talonracer]

ya I finally got it in shape to bring to him and got an appointment that works for both of us.

That thing sounds mean.

Well I upgraded from the 255 pump to a Ford GT Walbro 310lph pump with a boost-a-pump. I plugged in the lap top and turned on DSMLink to test the new fuel pump and it works great. A little different tone then the 255's have. It should be good for at least 550whp if not 600.

I went to boost leak test and get everything sealed up and found that the o ring on the 50mm BOV needed replacing. Fixed that and then found another leak that pretty much ruined my day. My SMIC is f'ing cracked. I am now trying to find someone that is known for aluminum welding to fix the crack on Sunday (5/23) so I can get the rest of the car back together and finish leak testing the system.

I am now looking for a intake manifold gasket and a TB gasket. A heat barrier IM gasket would be nice but stock works. I have my appointment set for Tuesday afternoon with Shane at DB and really want to get it running by Sunday night so I dont have to reschedule my appointment. PM me if you have any of these gaskets and if you are an excellent tig welder with aluminum and can meet up tomorrow (5/23).

I am really wanting to get at least 500whp but I keep hearing that the SCM6152 wont flow it. I did send it in and have a BB center section installed instead of a journal so would that increase the possible numbers at all? It is that turbo on a 2.3 with 8.8 compression, e85, crower 414 cams and all of the rest of the goodies.

The SC"M" 61 may not flow enough for those numbers, but I am no expert. I know Mara's 1g made 480ish on that dyno, but that turbo is a T3, not a mitsu flange. Shane told me that JET made some good power on a 2.3/2.4 SCM61 at one point, I don't remember what the number was though. Either way that thing will still make massive power.

As far as the SMIM goes, maybe drop it off a day early and just have Danny weld it up quick, he is a good welder from what I have seen. He did a good job on Brad's (C3L1CA) Front mount and Intake Manifold.

I kind of needed it welded it today so I can get everything else pressure tested and done.

maybe hit up pushit2.0 on here about welding it.
