    400+hp 16g project.

    well... thought I would update here....never made it on the dyno or the track with the 1g, broke 4th gear for the second time....So I ended buying a 2G lol, 97 GSX, which I swapped my built motor into and strapped on a TD05H 20G which will now be my dd, with a little tack time here and there till the 1g is done...

    I now have new plans for the 1G, it is getting prepped to become a drag car! may be awhile before I make any progress on it but I will post back when I start taring into it.. but I will probably start a new thread for the drag build.

    Complete Interior Rebuild In Progress- More Interior Progress!

    any plans for your sunroof or strengthening the roof? I m going for a similar look to yours. I dont want to loose my sunroof but I want to cage the car too. I want the sunroof to still be easily removable, but I want to stiffen the roof. Would be nice to easily remove the sunroof on track days, and have a CF plug or something if necessary.

    Those are not brake lines. Those are the lines that go from the reservoir to the master cylinder. The brake hardlines are tucked.

    '92 TSI Complete Rebuild From Firewall Forward - Part 5

    How much paint did you use?

    I have been trying to find quarts of high temp engine paint but am having little luck finding anything locally. Do you happen to remember how many cans of paint it took to do the front clip?

    talonDSMerr's 2.3L stroker build

    I have to say IMPRESSIVE BUILD! Great job.My setup is kinda similar to yours,TS manifold,dual wastegates,TS BW turbo(size is similar to GT40R turbo),Cyclone manifold ported and polished,2.0L motor,going to get the same SB clutch setup. Few questions,How does the car feel overall power wise with the intake and exh mani setup(bottom end and topend),and did you dyno it like you posted in two stages butterflies open and closed?

    With this huge turbo I have I decided to go pretty much with the same manifold setups you have to help make up for lowend loss even though I do still have a built 2.0L bottom end.

    Well fellas and ladies, it is time. It has been a looooooong wait. It seems the hour of chaos is upon the slow, the feeble and the HP challenged. I baught this motor with the exspections of going 9s.....uncompremised. Well it has come to my understanding that I can go what ever the heck I want. This is What you call overcoming. Now Mike, let it rain hard upon those that said it could not be done. Now without further delay..........behold the beastly heart of Gracey.

    Today I went to the machine shop to drop off the wrist pins, and I saw my motor and parts laying nicely on the building table.  Kinda reminded Me of an operating room.  I was so pleased that that kind off care was being taken.

    Went back out to the garage yesterday to get the front brembos installed.  That 
    lasted for about an hour.  My wife shows up at the door with the baby and says, "TAG, YOU IT".  I could swear the little fella was smirking at me.  I see I'll just have to chip away at it.  Did I mention there was a poopy diaper involved?

    Sheesh the guys lookin for advice, not ridicule. If ## lookin to runs 9's, like everyone else says, you need money. But more importantly, the dedication you so obviously display. Look for advice in the nice guys. Talk to your uncle. He should know someone who can hook you up.
