Re: Winter mods?

I have a lot going on this winter

New engine: map stage shortblock with a built head with ferrea components, +1mm valves and ported and polished.

Clutch rebuild kit

Upgraded clutch fork

New turbo (probably a BW billet 67mm s400sx)

Full blown dual pump hanger to get rid of the rusty modified stocker

Fix or replace my wideband

Fix my fuel pressure gauge inside the car

Put some carpet in it to clean up the interior a little

I'm sure there are other little odds and ends I'm forgetting right now too

MHI upgrade? Not really a prototype, but probably needs some real world testing and some board love to sell.

Re: Winter mods?

Yaaay! i love these threads!

BeaterX gets more maintenance. Check on cam clearances, it's noisier than I remember when its cold and its been burning oil ever since I burnt up that spark plug.

MR 2-piece rotors, gotta get them turned
Testing the new Girodisc S/S orange pads, hopefully they stack up to my beloved ferodos!
Fresh brake fluid
finally found some wheel spacers & extended lugs, gotta find time to install them
New rims?
Other than that, plow snow with my X

Why MHI when we have MAP in our back yard?

Same setup sitting in my garage too; probably wait until spring/summer to get them installed though.

Nope; but rather MAP's response to said turbo.
