Talon gets its motor back

Hi to all.
Depite huge rains this weekend and possible flooding, I was finally able to slide the engine in.
Here is some pics.

4g let is not cutting the mustard.

Looking good! Are you using a 14B?

 

[sovereign7M]

16 big.It came with the car.

I'm kinda worried about lag.It might be a good thing though,softer launch.

Nice looks good

Nahh the big 16G spools nicely. I had one for a while and the torque comes on like a tidal wave. If lag is an issue, dial in a bit of lean spool

worried about the lag on a 16g...

Well yes.
I have o.e 1G cams,31x13x4.5" comic 28th long route tubing.88th would guess it will take some time getting to the throttle body.
What I plan to get serious about is temperature management.
I am building some heat shielding for the o2dump and turbo facing radiator area.will back it up with thermal blanket.turbine blanket too.
Big time about temp management.Just look bow close the I pipe flange is to the ex.manifold.

Fmic long route.sorry spell check.
