I call co-pilot ride again!

[QUOTE I also might have to upgrade to a ball bearing version of the GT4202, the standard bearing version will not last forever at high boost. And thanks for looking.

So do you want to sell it for a 2nd time. Shane is selling a gt4294r for cheap

[Pushit2.0]

I will run the turbo I have until something bad happens. The 4294 would be to small for what I want to do with the car.

Guy in pa went 9.40@150s@35psi
did 9.09@164@44psi, what more u want?
(u r crazy)

[Pushit2.0]

I drove my car when it was making 47psi, and it was not fast enough.

[turbotalon1g]

I could of told you that.
GT4202 74mm, was making 933awhp 2 years ago ran mid 9s.

[MustGoFaster]

It only ever made 30-35 PSI on the dyno, the clutch wouldn't let it make anything more.

I can't wait to see this car back on the road! Good luck finishing up the build.

Engine bay shoot, its getting a little crowed in there again.


Just enough room for the SMIM.


I will find a spot to stick the waste gate.


The baby eater back home.


Yes that is diamond plate.


This is one of the only good runs the car made at high boost, and we let off early for some reason, it revs to ~9700rpm and this run ended at ~9000rpm.


Here is a MPH power band display. That is Kyle's 1g off the spray, again my run was shut down early so I "guessed" what it would do based on the WG pressure runs that were brought to redline. The boost does spike on my car, then the clutch slips and it settled at 36psi, on the street I logged as high as 47psi stable. The car was making the standard ~10hp per psi, at least from WG pressure(26psi) to the higher boost runs (36psi).

Looking good.
I found the non cruise cable for you

[turbotalon1g]

Looks crazy in there.
Diamond plate = pimp

[Pushit2.0]

The exhaust manifold broken down to the runners for finish welding.


Mounting the Kirkey race seat.








Yes, there are race seats going into the back of the car.

The exhaust manifold is almost done, I just need to place the waist gate and port it. I will be putting the head back on this weekend, then finish up the fab needed to get this thing on the engine dyno.

[sleepydsm]

Omfg, that is soooo cool to have 4 seats!!!!!!

[turbotalon1g]

Nice.

[TkrPerformance]

very nice

[niterydr]

mwhahaha, engine dyno time quickly approaching, most excellent.

[Constant_Project21]

I want a ride in the back!!! Haha

[Pushit2.0]

The head is now ready to put back onto the short block.


This is where the exhaust rocker tried to exit the head.



I have to make a new end tank for the water to air to the throttle body, so I started on the turbo side to eliminate the inter cooler pipe I used before.

I have a few more ideas to make working on the front of the car easier, and it should shed a few more lbs in the process, more to come on this over winter.

[Constant_Project21]

Looks great!!! Sweet build!

[blackrosenova400]

Lol nice exhaust manifold stand! I can tell you have the spiders out from it!

The turbo should be in the same spot as before, now I will just need to fab up the sheet metal end tank for the water to air and make a new down pipe.
