My Progress

[Halon]

nice man. Seeing shit like his is why I am so anxious to get back to the states and rebuild mine. I'm still unsure of what exactly I'm going to do when i rebuild. If imma go stroker, or stay 2.0 with forged, or just do the run of the mill 1grod/2g piston rebuild. But anywho looks nice man. You offering this "full head porting" yet as one of your services?

I think I have caught up to you Cher! I am hoping to be on the road Wed, how about you?

I have to put on the fuel rail, coolant lines/radiator, Ic piping, turbo and make the O2 housing/DP. That should about do it!

Sweet! I have a little bit to go. Wiring sensors and the fan and welding are the only things needed on mine. I hope to do the start up on Tuesday realistically.

Bad ass!!!

Good luck to the both of you!.

Thanks guys! I am getting worn out from working on stuff. I have been doing a lot of porting and fabricating lately too. I think I am going to take a break from working on cars for a week (hopefully!!). :bounce:

[SlowWhite]

No you're not for 2 Reasons:
1) DSMSTYLE Dyno Day this Saturday
2) Rock Falls on Sunday.

Want me to come up and do some of the stuff you have left?

Basically I could do everything but make the downpipe/02 housing?

Let me know and I'll see about finding a time cause seriously the rest of that stuff is Cake walk except the Fab work.

[JET]

No, I meant I am taking a week off AFTER this weekend! I WILL be at the dyno day! Hopefully I will even have it kinda tuned. :jammin:

[SlowWhite]

I'll hopefully be there video taping.

[Enes]

hmm.. i hope you are "taping" something else other than just video ... cough...... i just had to .. sorry..

[SlowWhite]

Sorry SP Error you Biatch's!!!! :fworld:............ :headache:

[JET]

Hahahaaa!! Enes trying to correct people's spelling, that is funny! :P Actually Brian was right though, he is taping. I believe Enes was thinking about tapping? Either that or I don't get another one of Enes' jokes!

[Enes]

Jet, beleive me when i say it you aren't the only one who doesn't understand some of my jokes.. hell i get confused half of the time too..

but yeah, i was saying "tapping" as in tappin dat ass... or whatever..

Yeah i know, my spelling is bad, but i do have a valid excuse!

Wait til you get to the last little details, that's where the problems begin. I've been waiting on a mini battery for almost two weeks, haven't been able to do squat up til today. And then there's the VPC and wideband display mounting, oh and that Alpine deck I just put in.

[JET]

Haha! I got almost all of the electrical hooked up tonight. The fuel system is done. All vacuum lines are run except the BOV and WG. I am going to be dead tired at work since it is after 2am and I have to be up in 4 hours

All I have left is to make a battery hold down, modify my main water pipe, make the O2 housing and DP, then install the coolant lines/radiator and put the IC piping back on!

I already test fit the O2 bend, I have some tweaks to make on that for tomorrow right after work. I will also do the main water pipe then. I will have a decent chance of being done tomorrow if I pull another late night. It will be Wed. at the latest, unless I missed something, but I don't think I did.

I can't believe how empty my engine bay looks for being almost done, I love it! Most of the stuff I did tonight wouldn't show up well in a pic, so I didn't take any. I should have a sweet one tomorrow though!! :bounce:

[SlowWhite]

Nice!

Keep up the good work!

[At-Least-It's-An-Evo]

Good work! You might finish before me. :naughty: :razz2: :cheers:

Well it came to life at 6:45am on Sunday. It wasn't an easy birth though, there were some complications. I had worked on it all night to try and get it to the track on Sunday. There was a serious oil leak so I said screw it and went in to bed. After tearing it all down it was just a stripped bolt that was leaking. I got it all back together tonight and it runs good! I have 2 tiny oil leaks from external fittings that I have to fix after it cools down. I should be on the road within an hour.

I really want to thank Joe M. for all his help! I would also like to thank Andy, Mike and Craig. And also Shane and Mo for a copy of their AEM program. Thanks everyone!

Here is a pic of it all done!! :3gears:

[A//// Guy]

Looking sweet! Why is there a stock intake manifold on that beast!

[JET]

That is going to be temporary (hopefully!). I already have the 3" accufab throttle body, I just need to make or buy a new manifold. She is going to be a torque monster for now!
