Those long tubes look sick on the engine stand...

Are you going to drive it for a bit before you add the supercharger back on?

 

Everything is going right back on because the car is already tuned for my old setup. The only major changes are compressions, cams, and more boost. But at idle those changes will be somewhat minimal so I should be able to do a start up on my old RT tune.

 

I smell that we are getting close

 

Engine is in, just turn the key and you're good bro

Also, managed to get the wheels on yesterday. Took a flat roll and baby pull and a few turns on the camber arm. Still have the full contact patch on the ground, but lifts half the tire aired out lol

Perfect for me no stretch really:

 

"no stretch really"... Hurts me inside lol. Colton those look fantastic!

Also got my car running. Sounds remarkably close to a v8 with open lontubes. Also set my oil cooler to "W" for Wumbo.

Lots of pieces on the front end and I somehow managed it without trimming the crash bar at all.
Picture dump:

 

Hey hey hey 285 on an 11 is pretty good for me I think lol

And glad to hear the car is running! One step closer to nearly doubling my horsepower for the second time

 

285s on an 11 is probably better than my 245s on 9.5s

 

old Vid waiting for parts so i can put my motor back together...

 

Dropped my car off to get the exhaust made. Tuning will be next weekend.

Who's the burnout hype man in that video?

 

That was Steve from VTR they were hosting this event.

 

Got the exhaust made. Could not be happier with how that turned out. Finally got around to putting my diff braces on as well. And got my bumper back on, had to trim some more for the oil cooler and bigger intercooler.

 

Diff brace looks nice and solid... I think I put the bigger bushings on top when I did my whiteline bushings, probably doesn't really matter... I think the directions say big bushings on top, and I've seen videos where they say big bushings on bottom to prevent vibrations...

Supposed to be getting rid of the rest of the car today... Got about 5 hours of picking left to do then its off to its new home.

 

You managed to ditch that car much faster than the last one

 

Still have it, guy was all sketchy and then said he wouldn't pay the agreed amount because I could have changed the cluster to show low miles yatayatayata...

O well, I tore the whole thing apart in a few weeks, ill get rid of it pretty quickly also... I have fresh sawzall blades.

 

Finally got some decent pictures in the driveway since I still can't drive. Excuse the dirty car.

 

Says excuse the dirty car, yet his car is the color of dirt...

And Mike that guy does realize that any used car he buys could have the speedo swapped?

 

What are the specs on the wheels? The fitment looks really good.

 

10 -2 / 11 -3

 

Round 2 lets see if this sale goes through..

 

I didn't notice him the first time I saw that video. I wish I had a hype man, lol.

Do you have a clip of how the exhaust sounds? Looks real sweet.

Deathblow, that was an awesome run, you have a break down of your time for that run? How much power are you making? You ever plan to run at another track, Englishtown is suppose to be a pretty good one.


Also, anyone near Hamden, CT? Just moved up here.
