Heyy guys. I wanted to start a new build thread and keep it updated this time.
My current setup right now is as follows from my profile:
Bolt on's:
Holset hx40 .70T3 3" VBand// STM T3// ETS 4" 2g Ultra Race FMIC// Archer fab 3" Vband o2 housing// Archer fab 3" catless Turbo Back// Archer fab 2" vband atmos dump tube. Archer Fab 4" intake w 12" K&N Filter// Tial Q 50mm BOV// Tial 44mm MVR Vband External Wastegate// Hallman MBC//, Stock Radiator w silicone hoses// Aeromotive A1000 FPR// VIS OEM Carbon Fiber hood//
Engine Management:
95 Eprom ECU with DSMLink V3, Speed Density// AEM UEGO WBo2// Auto Meter Boost/Vac Gauge 30+/30// Walbro 255HP STM Rewired// Omni power 4 bar Map// GM IAT// Apexi Turbo Timer, AEM Oil pressure Gauge 0-150 PSI
Engine Internals:
JPI Racing spec 6 Bolt 2.0// 2g un portedHead// Stock Intake manifold// BC 272/272 Cams// BC dual valve springs// FIC 2150CC injectors// Mahle Forged Pistons .020 Over bore. 9.0:1// Scat H-Beam Connecting Rods w ARP 2000 bolts// ARP Head Studs// ARP Main Studs// ACL Tri-Metals (main and Rod)// Felpro PermaTorque MLS Headgasket// Topline 3G Lifters// OEM Cam Gears & Timing belt//
Drivetrain Modifications:
ACT 2600 Sprung 6 puck Clutch// ACT Street Lite Flywheel// Comp Forged Clutch Fork// Stock Viscious 4 bolt LSD// Stock Transfer case with magnus tcase bearing cover// Stock Drive shaft// Three speed Scatter Shield// Shep Stage 3 Trans w/ 4 Spyder Center, EvoIII 1st Gear & Input Shaft// Solid Shifter Bushings (Trans and Base)
Suspension Modifications:
Blown kyb agx on eibach pro'sMegan Racing Front Strut Tower bar// Hawk HPS Pads// Power Slot slotted rotors all the way around// Stock gsx wheels.
My best time to date is an 11.1 @132 at 36psi at 3100lbs
(time slip taken from post 96 of holset results thread)
Well anyway it's winter time and I've been stock piling parts since the summer. it's time to start improving a few things. I had terrible 60fts all season and couldn't best a 1.8 on street tires and blown kyb's with the eibach's soooooo.....
I purchased cory bowers set of 15x7.5 rota slip streams wrapped in his hoosier QTP's that he ran his stock 7bolt 9.8 pass on. And some arp extended wheel studs to replace the current 17" gsx wheels.
The BC272 cams will be leaving after some testing and being replaced with BC dual valve springs and their new design stage 3 276/276 cams preview picture below
while I'm in there will be replacing the oem t belt with an HKS KEVLAR belt all new timing components and a set of new 3g lifters. Even though the motor has a little over 13,000 miles on her right now ive still got a little maintenance here and there, current 3g lifters tick like captin hooks alligator.
Water pump is fine so I'll be leaving that and L19 head studs are most likely in my future with the boost this turbo is capable of but won't be purchasing these until i need them. I plan to start off at 26psi and work my way up on. C16
The blown KYB AGX will be getting swapped for DG koni coilovers 650 front rate 350 rear
ill be dropping off the transfer case at magnus so they can check it and install the bearing cover i bought a few months ago with the proper shim.
-4AN fittings will be welded to an existing water pipe nipple for turbo coolant return and a new fitting tapped or welded into the t stat filler neck.
These water lines will be supplying the new BIllet CHRA HTA3794R which i dont expect to arrive for a few months due to back order, but it's not like the season starts in ontario until about april-ish.
I'll be fabbing up a 3" vband bumper exit exhaust to delete the full exhaust that currently sits in the car.
Heres my current o2 housing i made for the holset
And my dump tube i made
As it sits is completely gutted but still keeps the dash, and one kirkey drag seat and a 5point harness mounted to the C piller. More weight reduction is planned over the next season but it's at where it's gonna be at for the first half at least, i havent taken her to the scale lately cause of the salty roads, but is guess the car is somewhere around 2700 lbs without me in it. Goal is to get her down to 2500 without me in it.
The track i go to for TNT doesnt seem too strict about saftey as long as your not competing an event, my car still has no roll cage so I'm sure after my first pass that will be the next thing going in the car.
l'll be posting pictures as things arrive and if it's not too cold like it has been lately,(-8c ) I'll be getting my ass in the garage to start welding some exhaust pieces up after i finish the work bench I'm building (ah so many projects)
My goal is still to hit a 9.9 and go from there. But i know I'm out of pump before i get there as well as fuel line size. I have a -8AN fuel lab filter and filter to rail line but will have to wait to install that until i get lines from the tank, which might become a trunk mounted archer fabrications aluminum 5.5 gallon fuel cell. but... other priorities take place first.
I have aquired a 6bolt long block with 80k miles and a blown head gasket but otherwise complete and in great condition so i picked that up for exhaust manifold fab work and a future magnus rod/ross piston motor that will hold anything the 3794 could throw at it.
If anyone has questions about me or my setup or plans feel free to ask them here.
Stay tuned for awesomeness in 2014.
