Ok, so I know for a fact, i'm gonna be doing a 35r build just wanna see how my build sounds to you guys or if anything needs changing. Some stuff that is listed is already on the car. This buld will be with e85.
here's the details:

Will stock driveshaft be ok? what about rear end? anything else needed?

Turbo:
- Garrett 3582r
- Tial 44mm wastegate

Cooling:
CXracing Alum radiator with slim 12" fans

give me your ideas of what needs to be different.
 
Seems like you have a pretty good set up but with the e85 you will want some bigger injectors to work well with that 35r so your idc isn't through the roof and you also might want to look into SD the gm maf has a wandering tune depending on the weather ... I used it when i lived in new jersey and the tune would change with the cold ,wet, humid weather... just something to think about

SD? haven't heard of that.
 
yeah, I may do some 1600cc just depending on money flow. I may go to AEM EMS as well. SD would be no point in. Some people run that instead of ecmlink
 
1600 would be fine mabye even 1250, but aem ems? Idk I'm kinda still thinking I'm gona do megasquirt as my first I honestly have no serious reason why tho LOL. Aem is out for me cause of the $$$ poor white kid here. How much psi u gonna be running?

I'm still on a stock blow so probably 32psi tops. Cory bowers is running 32+ on a stock 7 bolt bottom end with almost 100k orginial miles on it too. He's making 550+awhp. I'm gonna try and see what I can do with mine.
 
In my honest opion people seriously under estimate stock 7 bolt 4g63 everyone is so quick to do a 6 bolt swap either to make more power, or scared of crankwalk. I also want to push a 7 bolt when I get another one, :/

yes, tons of people do. It don't happen as much as people think it does but it's still the fact that it does happen.
 
I would say bigger injectors, and i talked to a local tuner that tunes buschur's car..he said DSMLINK V3 is as good or better then aem ems for our cars. If you want to build a 35r why bother with a cast manifold, i would spend a bit extra..500 dollar range and bump up to a tubular manifold STM or something. It would help that turbo out a lot i think. Good luck tho..sounds like a beast!

I have tossed around the possiblity of the forward facing manifold that STM now offers.
 
Why forward facing? then you gotta spend more money running a honda half-rad and risk getting hot driving around town with the a/c on.
