I am happy to see a more rescent evolander build... I have one and would like to keep it for a while. Its a great drive. Keep us up to date on this and if you have videos or special stuff to know about with this build please let us know!
Still need to finish getting her tuned but I was able to drive her to one of the larger meets a few weeks back. It's really funny watching people walk by and not even look in the engine bay thinking it's just a lowered Outlander on some RPF1s. I guess the FMIC being black keeps it incognito. Once I fired her up and drove off though, all heads turned to see what was making all that racket.
Here's some current pics:
With the high compression 2.4L, T3 twin scroll manifold and exhaust housing w/ a .70 AR this thing is building boost and blowing off at 2500 RPMs. That's on a turbo that is just a tit bigger than a 35R. The setup will limit my overall power but this build was never about big power. It was about a super responsive setup that can make 500whp on the street.
Once I get the backlog of customer cars snipped a bit, I'll finish her up and get her to the track for some slips.
Damn finally an update. I was getting scared that this build would get lost in the fog. Its a sick ride guys! Keep us updated this is insane!
The bane of any shop owner is that customer's cars always come first and your personal cars always languish and wait for that free moment that never comes.
I'm hoping to have this thing at the track very soon to get a time slip out of it and then I'll probably put her up for sale. At the moment I could use the money for either a house or a dyno, I have plenty of other toys so hopefully someone can enjoy this thing!
I'll probably ask around $30k for it considering all the labor time and the quality of parts that are in it to get it to where it is now. The chassis hasn't even broken 20,000 miles yet!
Hey mate, I'm doing a complete swapfrom airtrek to outlander, just running gear, the Kframe and engine was almost perfect, but I have realised now that the rear assembly is completely different, what did you do?
