Build your Dream DSM...

If you haven't done this... well you probably aren't a true DSMer.

Keep this realistic, but pretend money isn't an object for the most part.

Evo boys... this thread doesn't apply to you! :D

I thought you said money is no object. I think you can do better than Megan racing parts, LIPP O2 housing, Innovate LC-1, and stock internals. :)

Yea, well, that is *my* dream set up... it might not be a 700whp build...

but it is reliable, basic, and good street power IMO. :D

Edit - I agree with you on Megan Racing parts... but I love their DSM exhaust parts, they are nice pieces IMHO. Also why are you hating on stock internals?? You think that set-up is gonna be pushing 500 AWHP on your dyno? I think not, so stock internals should do. ;)

Those injs and fuel pumps are too big for the HTA68. A single pump setup would be much more reliable.

you just about listed my 2g build to the item. It is a good setup, would suggest the 2.3 though. Works well.

Munch stage 5 long block (thing could handle 1 million awhp ;)). Not sure what would be in it, but it'd be amazing!

FP exhaust mani
FP dsm 82hta
Side exit exhaust
Built auto w/billet converter
Direct port nitrous with a nice big shot
Full interior
Some slicks

And a tune from Shane!

Eff that, this is a dream set up. E311 for me. :D

[C3L1CA]

haha no suspension mods? You'd think you'd want a little more power if you're not going to make the thing turn ;)

You still aren't going to need twin pumps or 1350s. I am just giving you shit though. :)
