i figured since the car is coming along (slow) i would start puttin some pics up of my build which has been going on in conjunction with Donkeypunch's (matt) GN build. Alot of you have seen the car in the 4 years i have owned it. The car since i have had it has always had a Stock LS1, T56 and a STS turbo kit. Well remote mount turbo kits suck and as always i wanted to mess with it so it started and here is what i have now.

LQ4 Block
JE Boost Pistons
Eagle H Beam Rods
LS6 Intake with ported TB
60lb Injectors
317 heads with dual valve springs
Custom Turbo cam from Smokinhawk
CTSV R Lifters
LS2 Timing Chain
LS6 Oil Pump
76MM Master Power Turbo.
Tubular Turbo headers (all custom)

I had just put on the car before I tore it apart: Tubular Adj Control arms, Spohn Sway Bars, Spohn wonder bar, Spogn Adj torqu arm, Driveshaft safety loop, KYB adj shock. Car has Eiback springs but will have Coil overs on it this week.

Couple pics of the car when it ran

Boosty Spoolie thing

 

FUCK YES. I love this car.

 

Lol pistons of doom! Fuck those things have been a pain in the ass since you opened the box.

 

yum
what are the numbers your expecting?

 

Word advise to all. Good deal on pistons from EBAY are not always a good deal... They were dirt fucking cheap but didnt come with anything but the piston and wire locks. I've had nothin but a headache with these things.

Low boost I'm hoping for 650 to the wheels. On my old STOCK LS1 with the STS kit and a T60 turbo i made almost 500 to the wheels with 9PSI. I'm waiting on my twin intake 255 Walbro setup to get here to replace my single 255 since as of now thats the first limitation in my build. The 2nd being I'm still running a stock 10 bolt...

 

10 bolt

 

Tell me about it...

 

Coming from someone who had twin Walboro's, may I suggest a single Weldon pump for your needs.

GL with the build.

 

awesome shit dude.
