The Sexy Grandma 15 day build

[TRIXTSI]

Im planning on making the event. Hopefully we'll get everything said and done and the bugs worked out by then or most of them at least. I think Jake is hanging up the helmet for the rest of this season. I could be wrong.

After all the recent carnage i'm certain Jake will not be racing anymore in his 1G in it's current form

Car looks great. Would it be possible to get some shots of the dash bracing?

 

[rrussell]

That thing is BAD ASS!!!

 

[Black_Bullet]

Thats sick, everything about the car is sick...

You and Evil Eagle just need to figure out how to get those damn awd drivetrains to hold up with all that insane power, im thinking converting to drive train parts from another car. ( i.e. muscle)

Keep up the great work and post more pics, hope it starts soon, Id like to see what it can do!

I really like the upper radiator mount for some reason. It's those little fabs/creations that add to the details and make a car nice. Also, to the turbo bracing.

 

[fst91dsm]

I bet no one even noticed that thats a Civic radiator... wheres the filler cap? Or the push locks on all the wastegate and BOV fittings instead of rubber lines. Well I guess you cant really see those but they are there.

 

[hpexperts]

wow.

 

[TurboJimbo]

I actually did notice its a civic radiator cause I just put the same Koyo radiator in a customer's car, haha 10 points for me j/k

Car looks great, keep up the great work and best of luck

get some pics of the push lock fittings to show everyone...i ran those same style fittings on my paintball guns back in the day...i tried them out on the last build on my srt4 and man, it looks soooo much cleaner and definately easier to mess with that the rubber hoses and zip ties or worm gear clamps...

The main background noise after she shuts down is the fan and a little of the fuel pump.

Looking really good man!

 

[91 dsm DENCO]

that is way tight. I have Talon DSM but no way will it be like that any time soon. I am trying to get sponsors but it is tough. Keep on smoking redneck v8s.

 

[FaNtUm2113]

[alwaysboostin]

very nice build

 

[redboosted97]

very nice I love the car and the push lock connectors used to use them on my paintball guns!. question for you is what is regulating your boost i see straight wastegate pressure!

For the first couple of times we tune it we will be running off of wastegate pressure. (Twin 44's w/ 1.2bar, 17.405psi springs) So it will be running just under 35psi, then we will add the boost controller and start turning it up.

I'm assuming you mean you have two 1.2bar springs in each gate?
