I also decided that I'm going to sell the T3 manifold and go TS T4 and also sell my TCU that is programmed for dual mode and go with the kiggly mod.

That's going to make your turbo options more expensive.

BW are usually TS T4 off the shelf. the exhaust housings are usually huge though.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
well finally got off my ass and pulled my wheels off the car now that it is on jackstands for the winter.
I'm also charging my mini battery in the car it was down to 11.6 volts and about 70%.
I'm really not inspired to work on the car, but well we still have 3-4 months of winter so we will see what happens.

You are probably right, explains why my tits are getting bigger though.
I'm just trying to focus on school, work, and honestly saving money to buy a house this time next year.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
Took me a while to find this thread, but lame update time.
Sold that SFP T3 manifold and picked up a T4 DNP manifold.
Sold my longblock.
Picked up a 2.4 eagle crank and some std. eagle rods.
Still need to clean up the block I have to build.
Need to decide 100% where this car is going, either street car with PS, AC and stuff or just go race car since I really have no desire to make a DSM a street car. Plus not like this thing won't see street time either way.
Anywho, planning to make it more of a race car and just keep everything incase I change my mind. Not sure when this will be complete, I'm planning on picking up a new car next weekend and then I have a performance driving day at DCTC to go to, followed up novice school.
The warm weather did get me outside today though, so hopefully I'll make some more progress with it once it gets warmer.

I have a local that does it. I'm still using the TCU, but I will be selling once I get the car running.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
Race car gets my vote. I took out PS and ac in mine. I also plan on street duty to. I did save everything though so in the fall when I sell it as a stock car I can reinstall all that stuff

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
Don't do racecar. Things like PS and AC don't weigh much, easier to add more POWAH, you're not going to break much with an auto.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
So i was messing with my DD and was tired of not having room, my friend suggested putting the wheels back on the DSM and pushing it outside.
Well I'm glad that I did, man was it nice to have all that room back again and seeing it on the ground with wheels on showed me how good looking it is and how much I missed it. I'm going to try and make some more progress with it soon.
The rain we get tonight/tomorrow should clean off the ton of dust on the car and I need to pull out all of my gauges and get them up for sale.
I'm changing the layout yet again since I won't be running a HU.
I'm planning on building a motor for now, but if I find a deal on a used built motor then that may find its way in.
