With the set up at the point i got tuned on E85 and made about 410whp/ 410tq... i wasnt able to track the car due to my 6 speed trans not being able to take the tq increase and it got destroyed along with the brand new clutch ...
so Engine build 1.2 lol:

this clutch didnt last very long due to it being a used clutch and a very temp solution
so now build 1.3:

retune
car put down 420whp/430tq.. this was on the the stock Evo 8 turbo car ran 11.5@122 1.7 60ft on all season tires haha
this set up lasted for quite some time .. and then about 2 months ago, i had some lady drive right into my car as she tried to cut across 5 lanes of traffic .. that had the car in the shop for about 6 weeks.. i then decided to up the cars level and make some big power ...
Build 1.4
Mishimoto Radiator
2150cc inj
E85 walbro 400
FP Black
ported intake Mani
S2 68mm Throttle body
AMS FMIC
Dejon 4in intake
Perrin BOV
This build was tuned and set up ... I made 525whp/437 tq on 27 PSI... I made such little power due the stock fuel rail, stock FPR and the fuel pump being too restrictive this set up was by far my favorite .. such a freaking blast ... but after being tuned I was on my way home and was passing a truck and it kicked a piece of metal under the car, tore into the oil pan and destroyed the motor ... and now the new build that is soon to be started ...
Engine Build 2 - In Progress
JE 10:1 pistons
Manley Turbo Tough Rods
ACL Tri-Metal bearings
AEM fuel rail
STM oil cooler
STM FPR kit
TS Motor mounts
Hawk Ceramic pads

The car is being built and finished up here in TX, so ill prob be down in FL for a little bit and then come back up to TX and pick up the car, break in the motor, and then get her re-tuned and then cruise it down to FL once she is all set ... the goal for the FP Black has been about 615whp and 525 tq and run low 10s on my all season tires.

haha thanks guys, I had some good guidance when it came to this build and I was a lot more honest with myself on my future power goals lol, so did what I needed to do with certain parts and yea i love the look of the new parts so sexy and beefy .. cant wait to get it back and get the retune for the big...bigger power haha
#10
yea .. the best guesses are that the metal or part of it ... went up into the motor and just laid waste .. and yes i got lucky and insure is covering it ... i wont lie .. i get paranoid around trucks and dont baby it by them .. so she was under a good load and every thing was pretty instant ..motor shut down and it was all she wrote .. and no joke i am deff going to be looking for an under tray ... maybe a nice one that adds some down force lol

Ok so time for an update ... got the shortblock in about 2 weeks ago, we tore it down at the shop... popped the oil pan off... went to rotate the crank to start pulling the rods off ....as soon as the crank moved one of the rods went clink against the crank :/ ...so well knew one bearing was dond ....so after all the rods came off and the crank came out ...we looked in horror as we found ALL 4 ROD AND MAIN BEARINGS HAD BEEN TRASHED!!!!! ... engine had been oil starved and wore them all down to the copper ... needles to say... had to buy a new crank ..so that shouhd be here mon or tues and with a little luck the car will be driving by the end of the week! !!

update on the car ... the new crank came in last thursday we started putting the bottom end together and go figure another snag... i was sent stroker rods that were 6mm too long, causing the pistons to stick up out of the block... (funny cuz i ran into the same issue with the 1st motor build haha) ...
so had to send them back but had to wait till tuesday after the holiday ...
so tuesday rolls around and my builder calls me and says "hey, what do you think about doing a 2.0Long Rod" ... i reply with .. "Yup i love it .. do it" .. so the JE pistons are removed and new Wiseco 1400 HD stroker pistons are ordered instead of gettin new rods so now i have 2.0L crank(88mm) 2.4L rods(156mm) and 2.3L pistons (-6mm pin) so the stroker piston moves the pin spot up 6mm closer to the top of the piston and compensates for the 6mm longer rod. in doing the stroker piston i had to sacrifice going high compression, but ill make it back up in motor strength, high RPMs, and Tq
