Default Pictures of my motor fully built at HID in houston.

Here are some pictures of my motor with the SSR intake manifold and turbo kit. This was taken last Sat at the Hot Import Daze show in Houston.





I will post more pictures as soon as they are done uploading to my site.

more importantly - where is that throttle body from?!?! It's HUGE! Was your intake manifold custom made to accept that?

I definitely need to give Tom a call when I get ready to take on the APS Single Turbo...

Are you converting the car from drive by wire to regular throttle cable ? I would also like more info on the inatke manifold and TB, and what kind of engine management are you using? Im assuming the block is built?

The pictures don't even do it justice. The motor was blinging! Mazzoo, I tried to find you, but never did. My car was over in BF Goodrich's booth on the LE37 wheels. My wheels were off for the show since I did not have the tires on they wanted.

Ok I will try to get everyones questions in.

Throttle body:
It is an Aacufabb 90mm and yes we are changing it to use a throttle cable.

Inatke manifold:
This is the SSR manifold. I called SSR and told them that I wanted their manifold but that it needs to fit a 90mm TB. They were more then happy to custom make it for me.

Engine management:
We are using the Autronic SM2. It is a full stand alone ECU.

Turbos:
They are Turbonetics Ball Bering T3 super 60 with the T4 wheel. This was another upgrade SSR did for me.

Is the block is built?
Yes, I have the AEBS 8.5:1 Stroker kit
Light Speed Performance Stage 3 race heads
Tomei camshafts 268/10.5 in/ex
NISMO High Strength Valvespring Set
NISMO Oil Pump - It is essentially a NISMO RB26 oil pump with gears and a housing designed to mate to the VQ35
NISMO Low Temperature Thermostat

Clutch:
Tilton Triple disk Carbon/Carbon Clutch


bwzabodyn - give Tom a call at Light Speed. He is the only person I let work on my motor. PM me and I will give you all his information.

t32gzz - Sorry I did not get to see you at the show. I was over looking at your car in the BFG booth. It's looking good.

thanks man - after seeing the quality of work that he's done on your car, I would definitely be willing to listen to his thoughts about what would best suit my needs...

I have all of Lightspeed's info - it hasn't changed from what's on their website, has it?
