yeah we said above that it is a bone stock motor, never opened up. car is full weight from the seats forward. full AC, full powersteering, etc.
we removed the plastic in the back half of the car and some metal cause we knew we would have to get the cage welded in after this time to the track.
basically just a utec, injectors, and a turbonetics single turbo kit.
driven every day on 12 psi on 93 octane and turned the boost up to 15 on C16 for this weekend...

yeah, we will be switching to a heavier oil from now one when we are pushing the limits. no oil cooler, the car is bone stock, just TN kit , utec and injectors, everything else is seriously stock.

well not that we are inventing the wheel but rather taking knowledge of turbo kits from other platforms and changing a few things on the basic TN kit.
12 psi daily beaten up badly, we do donuts constantly, drifting, burnouts and full racing it on full boost. i cant believe the motor even made it this long with what all we did to it.
i know its a spun rod bearing, i can hear it

thanks man, we always back it up!! dynos can be altered, trap speeds and ETs dont lie, ever....
