TheBlackPearlZ's Going For 700+WHP TT
 
5 Attachment(s)
I made the decision about 5 months ago that I wanted to go F/I. I had no clue where to begin and had no idea what i wanted to do, but i knew i wanted to go fast...and that's just the start i needed. So, thanks to this forum, all you guys out there, and a few friends and vendors I began to piece together just what i wanted to have happen. Through some really great guys on here, Joe Kinefic, Louie (eagletanggreen), Tim (jumpin800agl), Sharif (forged), Jay'Z, Irshad @ GRD, Aaron Zivman, Robert K, and a bunch others I am almost done with my dreams for this car.

I initially was under the idea of going with a Stillen Supercharger kit, stay on a stock block, and call it a day. But power hungry that I was, and researching the power output of that kit, i decided against it. I than began researching the APS kits. Very nice kits, and for anyone out there considering going F/I, don't pass up on considering these. They are putting out some good numbers. But then i talked to Joe and Louie...

The problem with the APS kit is that it spools slower then the Greddy kit. And i want that sh!t your pants fast when @ WOT and 3500 RPM...so i opted to go with the Greddy Twins. I then began thinking about exactly what i wanted with this build. 450whp? 500whp? daily driver with 400whp?...i eventually said FCUK IT...700+whp daily driver. And so that became my goal...so then i had to find out how exactly i was going to obtain that....

so this is where i went from there...obviously i would need to build the motor. and obviously i wasnt going to get there on just the turbos alone...so a serious shopping spree of parts insued...i talked around and got a parts list of what i would possibly need to complete this...

i decided against sleeves to see just how far i could push this bad boy without them. and with some crazy set ups making crazy numbers without sleeves, i figured what the hell, ill give it a shot too.

Heres the parts list

Engine:
-Eagle Forged H Beam Rods w/ ARP Rod Bolts
-Arias Extreme Duty Piston set (9.0:1, .020 overbore)
-JWT S7 Camshafts for Rev-Up Engine
-ARP Main Stud Kit
-ARP Extreme Duty Head Studs (L19's)
-Cosworth Rod Bearings
-Cosworth Main Bearings
-Cosworth Thrust Bearings
-HKS Metal Head Gasket (97mm)
-NGK 2 Step Colder Plugs
-Koyo Type R Radiator
-HKS DLI II Ignition
-Optima Yellow Top

Fuel System:
-CJ Motorsports Stage 1 Complete Return Fuel System
-RC 1000 CC Injectors
-Walboro 255 lph Fuel Pump

Turbos, Exhaust, and Air Flow:
-Greddy 18G Twin Turbo w/ FMIC
-SGP 3" Open Dumps w/ Relocation Tubes
-Vibrant 3" Flanges
-Greddy EVO TT Exhaust
-Cosworth CF Intake Plenum

Drivetrain:
-Carbonetic Triple Disc Carbon Clutch
-Nismo Short Shifter

Suspension:
-Tein Monoflex
-Hotchkis F/R Sways
-JIC Magic CF Strut Bar

Electronics:
-HKS F-Con V Pro w/ Knock Amp
-HKS EVC 6 Boost Controller
-Defi Gauges
-Greddy Turbo Timer
-F-Con Navigator
-Tein EDFC

Others:
-CoolingMist Meth Injection Stage 2
-Zex 350Z Direct Port Nitrous System
-Stainless Steel Brake Lines (Stoptech)
-Stainless Steel Clutch Lines (Agency Power)
-Custom Earl's Oil Cooler Kit

I am sure i missed some things, but that is the gist of the project. All of that stuff is already bought minus a few minor things, but they will be bought within the next few weeks or as soon as Sharif gets them in stock (i.e. the Cosworth plenum). As far as the build goes. I will be doing the install with the help of Joe Kinefic, the madman behind Louies project car.

My return date to the states is estimated at the 10th of April, and the build will commence shortly there after. Unfortunately i do not think it will be done by Zdayz, sorry guys, but roughly around June is when it should be done. As far as wheels go and body kits and stuff...i have not bought anything yet, as i have run out of money LOL...thats why if anyone wants to sponsor this show car and hook it up i will gladly accept offers.

This car will be taken to all shows and events. As far as where my parts are right now, they are with my fiancee Elyse at her house. Attached are pics of some of my parts as they have come in through the mail to her house. Enjoy. And look forward to another 600-700whp monster, 700+ if Sharif can make it happen !! :D

Best wishes for the upcoming build. With Greddy TT, meth, and nitrous I think you've got a good recipe to hit 700. :thumbup: Oh and you better finish your build before you get married, cause it won't be easy to spend money like this after :icon38: .

taurran Jan 16, 2008 05:58 AM

Meth and nitrous? hmmm... why?

The fuel system will be taxed but it should make it. Good luck.
