Man... does this take me back! Now that it's in the shop's hands things move pretty smooth.

 

ya completion should be sometime the week after next. there aiming to get it wrapped up so i can take it home and garage it before i head down to sema

 

everythings about to come together but after thinking about it a little, debating going to twin gtx3071R's and doing a water/meth kit. kinda want to be done with it while its all out. Wont feel the need to come back later then since the gt2871's would be maxed out.

 

do the X series use the same turbine housings as the regular gt30s? Remember, GTM does not use standard turbine housings. The use the small T25s

 

hmm thats a good point i forgot about that. i know a t25 fits on the X series. but whether or not it fits on the gtm t25 i am not sure. Probably should give sam a ring and ask him

 

hope it fits really want to break into the 800's with some meth

 

Ouch! 1400$ EACH. But at least this makes it sound like you can just resuse the housings.

ya : /, thats what i thought when i read it. not really wanting to get a pair and have the housings not fit tho

 

cant find any gtx3071's readily available, just sticken with the 28's for now but am going to do meth after break in on the motor

 

Motors pretty much done fittings came in for casting bolt coolant mod today so those will be going on tommorow and all hooked up

 

loaded up going back to the shop

 

Well good luck! Hopefully things start coming together on schedule.

 

Nice man, hoping you the best.

 

Yeah baby!

Update?

 

shop got busy while i was gone i guess >.> so going in tommorow trannys all bolted up and going in through the bottom should be in by wednesday and tuned thursday afternoon

 

Oh man. Dont ever put names to days. I thought you'd have learned that by now. Not slighting the shop- its just how it works. Frick look at me- the seasoned vet. Hardly. Anyway you get my tongue in cheek response... I can't wait to see how you do. I suspect the Dyno will be at its limits.

 

o i know lol this is my second go around at this haha, took awhile to do the stock block set up too. theyre full up on cars though and they want to get a few out so i suspect itl go fairly quickly now haha
