Yeah once or twice. Not planning on going to much. just to put down a number and see how much improvement there was over last year.

im very interested to see what that billet 20g does, im currently running a turbolab 20g but not billet

[99gsxjoel]

What are you puting down? Just interested how much more then the evo3 16g I have now.

[19TsiAwd90]

Well my car is a subaru, it makes less than a evenly modded evo or dsm, and lags like a bitch because of all the preturbo echaust. Lol I put down 340 awhp at rs motors ron's dyno reads pretty low, its close to 370 at map(very rough guess) this is also a stock motor on 22psi external wg, full tbe, mellow e85 tune, biggest topmount intercooler I could fit under the hood, and more I can't think of

As I am still a noob I have started thinking how I want to tackle all the things I want to do to it.

Water pump, timing belt, cams, head gasket, head studs, and replace the transmission.

Would I be better pulling the entire engine, or doing the work in the engine bay.
What are your thoughts/opinions.

ive rebuilt plenty of dsms already!
Taking the motor out is a simple 2 hour at most process and makes working on everything way easy!
I could help you if ever needed i have all the tools and knowledge to get it done right!

I would pull the motor. It would make life alot easier with the motor and tranny out of the car.

[C3L1CA]

Yea if you're doing that much work I'd just yank the motor/trans together. Wouldn't take that much longer and would make it much easier to work on

[GsXtUrBo98]

I agree with motor and tranny being pulled. Much easier

[99gsxjoel]

Sounds good. When the car is getting worked on I will post up, and if anyone is board they can come hang out, watch, or even turn a wrench if they would like.
