so after getting a FWD auto car and doing some minor mods to it and getting it to run really well. i decided to build another one, but with more done to it. My build is going to be a car built for the street. So that means lots of torque, and real soon.. I also wanted to keep A/C and cruise control. This will be a daily driver and a sleeper. Im trying to make it look as stock as possible.
So i decided on this setup:
2.3l 4g63 7 bolt block
Custom manley pistons 11.5:1 C/R
Groden aluminum rods with vader coating
Eagle forged steel 100mm crank
acl coated race main/rod bearings
2g head
mild porting work done. trying a new small-large-small port design to increase velocity
supertech valves
dual valve springs with titanium retainers
manley keepers
bronze valve guides
hks 280 cams
STOCK 2g intake manifold
custom intercooler piping to fit auto trans
large universal front mount intercooler
Walbro 485? e85 fuel pump
8-an nylon braided fuel line for the feed
BG 10" fuel filter with stainless element
1680cc injectors
AEM fuel pressure regulator
Custom "holset" turbo
67x99mm compressor wheel
hx40 turbine wheel with hx52 turbine shaft(fits in hx40 turbine housing so i can use the BEP housing for a "bolt on" fitment)
NOS Pro shot fogger system with braided steel hoses
Pictures of the second car as i bought it. Needs pretty much everything.







Pictures of the block being modified for the aluminum rods with 100mm crank.
Before

Rods after i got them back from FFWD


Short block assembled

Long block

Attached to transmission ready to be dropped in

Nitrous setup mocked up with the hardlines

Nitrous installed with the new lines. it doesnt quite clear the ac compressor so i will redo these later on

Engine installed. notice the nitrous can not be seen

New turbo
