Default Teaser pics - Forged built APS Extreme TT

Just wanted to post a few "teaser" pictures of my build that is being done by Forged Performance. When the build is complete, I will post many more pics along with the dyno sheet and full list of modifications, but here is a brief list:

Built shortblock (unsleeved)
JWT S7 camshafts
HKS FCON VPro
Koyo radiator
APS Extreme TT kit
APS 3" dual exhaust
ATS/Carbonetics Triple Disc Clutch


I've got to say thanks in advance to Sharif and the crew at Forged. Just like everyone else is always saying, their customer service is top notch. I haven't had a moment of worry or stress so far. Stay tuned for dyno numbers in a couple weeks.

Thanks. I'm glad that your car was there when I dropped mine off. I have seen pics of it on the AKA site, but pictures don't do it justice. How's your build coming along?

Headgasket issue, the engine must come apart, not sharifs fault. he didnt build the engine. lots of labor though. you should have the about the same numbers as me, setups are about the same minus the sleeves, i used a different engine build set up though. i am interested to see what your car will do,so keep me posted.

sharif should have 2 done in the next few weeks. dutchboys is a non revup and mine is a rev up. i sleeved my block but left the heads stock, he has cams but no sleeves. should be a good comparison. hey dutch, wait until you hear that exhaust....get some earplugs. now i am thinking since the gasket issue i have,and the fact that the engine is going to get torn down it might be a good time to go ahead and put the cams on the car.
edit: i guess if he is going with S7 cams he is a revup, good catch brian.

Thanks for the compliments .
My build is coming along. I ‘hope’ the engine is done in a couple of weeks. Roundabout that time, Sharif will start setting up the extra stuff I got in preparation, so things will being shaping up in a few weeks I guess.

IF things go well, She should be up and running by early March. DAMN, it has been too long since I have driven her… like 4 months so far…

They are for the Revup. I'll be down your way this spring to give you a ride in the car if we ever have any decent weather.
