Default Build-up all most done!

motor is coming out end of this week (monday) at the latest . Block is finnished and ready for install.

Really thinking about dumping the HKS and having TT installed now that I have a motor that will handle high boost/HP. Even upgraded my head studs just incase lol

Also having a ton of parts powder coated and painted under the hood for some added bling!

Congrats man.... See there is a Silver Lining to everything that happens to our cars....
Stick with the Supercharger man... If you go TT you will develop symptoms of 'Just a Little Bit Faster' syndrome. It is very similar to what you already have "Just One More CF Piece' and just as expensive. I do not know too many people who can afford to have both diseases without falling into that bottomless pit called 'Second Mortgage'

Anyway I wish you had the car for this Friday.. Why would you not race it if you had it there..?

man I just have to much $$ tied up now to take the chance of something else breaking. I might keep the SC though and just add that 100mm pully and IC it would bring nice points at a show seeing as there are not many HKS with those mods. I dont know I am just happy to be getting my car back soon. I am going to be helping a new shop in GA (cant let the cat out of the bag just yet on who) get his name out or should I say shop name anyway hehe. I am sure some of you know who I am talking about.

Id keep the S/C and run more boost-it would be a very different set-up than most and the lower TQ of the S/C over twins on a built motor will keep your auto happy
