My first project "The Beast"
 

This my first build for a DSM, and i'm trying to do what I do. The motor is only 60% done but it's coming along, trans is built with all the goodies and PTT twin disk. It should be done next week. Once it's back, it's on to get a little body and paint work done. I made a little slide show.

Very nice! Quite a collection of quality parts!


Is that a jhm manifold? I probably got the name wrong, but he's that guy from wisconsin with the low 9sec 150mph 1g.

Re: My first project "The Beast"
 

looking good, good luck

Re: My first project "The Beast"
 

Thanks. Yep that's Jake, he's a cool guy. It's a JHRacing manifold. The design is crazy. I know it will help spool up but I want to see how much power i will gain from it.

looking real nice!

Re: My first project "The Beast"
 

Looking good!

Re: My first project "The Beast"
 

Looks good, what turbo is that?

Re: My first project "The Beast"
 

Is that little cooler up front the radiator? Car looks nice! I like the air horn :D

Re: My first project "The Beast"
 

It's a custom spec triple ball bearing Comp Turbo. It's made from the ground up just for racing.

Re: My first project "The Beast"
 

Thanks. Do you mean is the oil cooler in front of the radiator?

Re: My first project "The Beast"
 

Looks good!! I like the color choice on the block, Our motors look some what simular..

Did you stick with the 2.0 or did you do a stroker setup?

Re: My first project "The Beast"
 

They do have a resemblance. That's some nice welding and fab work.

It's still 2.0 I'm not ready to jump to full drag car, I like to cruise the streets, and it will be capable of running laps at the track. My next setup I will have the motor destroked to 2.1 and have 11,000rpm red line. But that's years away. Right now it's a all around race car :seeya:. No drifting.

Re: My first project "The Beast"
 

DSM builds are either really nice or really crappy; good work!

Re: My first project "The Beast"
 

Good luck getting a DSM to shift at 11k rpm! :lol: I am not sure if even a dogbox would shift that high and I doubt the engine would last. As of 2004 Shep was shifting at 9,800 rpm.

Re: My first project "The Beast"
 

Looks decent man, what parts did you use in the motor and what type of 'racing' is that turbo designed for? road racing? drag? Judging by the dual wastegates, it's probably fairly big...but how big?

Keep us updated!

Diagram of triple ball bearing assembly please

Re: My first project "The Beast"
 

I thought it might be an oil cooler, is the radiator just not installed in the slide show?

Re: My first project "The Beast"
 

The radiator is not in yet. Still have to do wiring, radiator, catch cans, and a number of a couple of things.

The engine has ross piston, crower rods, port & polished job, FP 4r cams, etc. Red line is 8500rpm. Ported and polished Forrester intake mani with Q45 throttle body.

The turbo is a .70 twin scroll T4. It's around the size of a 40r but will make more power than a baby 42r and spool up much ,much faster than both. It's big but will spool fast enough for me to lower the boost and do some road racing.

Re: My first project "The Beast"
 

We aren't noobs around here, what turbo is it? TS T4 doesn't narrow it down much, nor does the .70 ar compressor cover.

Re: My first project "The Beast"
 

Yea like jet said. Just tell us what wheels are in it.

I hate that "it'll spool like xxx but make power like an xxx!"
