Nice Build

 

[Cornfed4G64]

Thanks!

Picking up some wheels Monday so ill updated with more pics.

 

[Cornfed4G64]

I picked up some 16" kosei k1's and nitto NT555R DRs so now I have my wheels covered.

 

[Cornfed4G64]

Set of kosei k1s with nitto 225/50/16 nt555rs should work sweet for the track.

Also picked up v3

Some other parts to full 3" exhaust ect.

Just gotta order cams and I'm ready to put it together break in motor iron out bugs.

I have a tune date set for the 28th of may so crossing fingers I make it.

 

[arodgst]

Looks like the start of a great build...and wow your turbo looks crazy with that wheel stuffed in that housing Nice build though!

 

[Cornfed4G64]

Thanks. Yeah it's definetly one of the biggest wheels that would fit

 

[kevin15]

really nice build!! are you selling any left overs??

 

[Cornfed4G64]

Not sure what you mean by leftovers? Send me a pm if you your looking something.

Also bought some gsc s2 cams today just have to go pick them up.

 

[Cornfed4G64]

Got the gsc s2 installed and the timing set! Coming along now.

Also got my an fittings welded on my valve cover today.

Also got some injectors off tuners today so I know have everything I should need to get running.

 

[2g99]

wow man build seems to be coming along great! best of luck to you man. what is going to be your HP goal??

 

[Cornfed4G64]

Turbo is kinda a test so not sure. It's supposed to make 450-480 through a 5 spd so maybe 350 through an auto.

Main goal is to make a really big usable powerband.

If the turbo doesn't run a 10 with the stock cover ill be switching to a t3 6266 BB setup.

 

[Cornfed4G64]

Some more parts came in

Jic coilovers

New RTM carbon hatch

Placing order this week for the FAL rear glass

Smim

Harness showed up today! Thanks Andrew. Should work for what I need to accomplish as long as tech doesn't get to picky.

Got my Greddy MBC today to. (Mail lady was like wait you have 2 )
From what I read its similar to a grim speed 1 click per psi. Got it on a trade so no money out of my pocket so ill give it a shot.

Gauge setup and steering wheel. BECAUSE RACECAR!!!

Heading out to get some ATF +4 so at the very least get this tranny mounted to the short block.

 

[n0de]

Beautiful car man. Subscribed!

 

[Cornfed4G64]

Thanks

I gotta pull one of the boosts and put in my auto temp one.

Also just put the narrow band in there to see if I cut the hole right.

Why the steering wheel? Cause its better than rocking a stock one with airbag for track days.

Also huge thanks to Tyler, Miles and Joel. Got a lot more done than I thought I would which is awesome considering we didn't start doing anything till 6:30 tonight.

Got the JIC coilovers installed, trans bolted to the motor with the kiggly kit, and the motor installed in the car. Also swapped rear rotors out for the slotted ones I had sitting here.

On to the pics.

Not much left now!

 

[Cornfed4G64]

Pictures 5/26/13

Still have to finish one flush mount on hood, tint headlights, tails and reverse lights. Then the exterior should be finished.

I'm going to be installing the oem fog lights as well. Shouldn't be to hard. People say you can't with the vrsf kit but I'm out to prove them wrong.

 

[ALynch]

Your car is super clean! I love the front 3/4 shot. Looks insane with the drop and those meats on there! Great build, keep us updated!

 

[Cornfed4G64]

Ya sorry for the lack of updates.

The drop was really only for pics. It's sitting much higher now.

It's currently tuned at 20 psi and its going on the dyno the 25th of July.

Ill update this with dyno sheets once I have them.

Btw if anyone has an auto and are not running a shift box. I'd highly recommend it. My car is completely different with it installed and I love it!!

Thanks for liking the car. Here's a few pics

With the Rotas (street setup) on

 

[LaserRS92]

What's the exact turbo you are running? What are you hoping to make on e85 with it?

 

[Cornfed4G64]

See post 13 for power.

I ditch the stock j cover and put on an 18g cover. Turbo is still the same as in post one though.

 

[Cornfed4G64]

So made it to the dyno. No ill effects minus running out if fuel. Which is fine I surpassed my hp goal with the car with at least 8 lbs of boost left on the table.

So here is a quick run down of the setup.

2.4 fully built
1G head
S2 cams
Gsc beehives
1100 high z
255 hp rewired
Bolt on 3076 8cm fp hotside tdo6h4 turbine

These #s were through an auto at 22-23 lbs of boost and 17-18 peak timing. Also it's a dyno dynamics (heartbreaker) so first #s are corrected

Shootout

Uncorrected

Plan as of right now is to get to the track and see what it runs.

In the meantime ill be looking for some 2150s and a walbro 450.

Huge thanks to Shane @ DB. I know I was shocked at the #s and the fact I ran out of fuel but I don't think I was the only one.

Next update should be a timeslip

 

[TJCTalon]

Any pointers for installing the 6 bolt in a 2g kit?

What converter are you running?

Very nice build man, looks fantastic. Hows the spool up on that turbo?

 

[Cornfed4G64]

Pointers not really its pretty straight forward. Just follow the directions that kiggly sent.

I'm on a stock converter.

I see 22 by 4500 rpms. We ran out of fuel though so couldn't turn it up.

Thanks car came together rather quickly but so far I'm liking how it turned out

 

[TJCTalon]

Have you tried to stall with your set up yet?

Using any nitrious to spool. Seems like a pretty laggy turbo, not horrible but for a stock converter you might have issues off the line.
