Time will ultimately tell, my friend. It should be a very interesting summer.

 

Let us know how she is progressing and when its finished I would really like to see how it turns out.

 

Donor block over here

 

I certainly will. It should be an interesting summer.

As long as it doesn't come with a greasy chicken wing then you can count me in.

 

if its a daily driver street car you'll have more fun with a 2.3, but from reading what you said in here you might actually like a 2.0 or 2.1 or even a 2.4 (best of both worlds) better because you will beable to rev the **** out of it vs a 2.3 .. id say the stock tq limit on block is 450 not 400.

im surprised you could even floor the car in 5th gear from a low rpm, most cars will choke doing that, its to much airflow for the engine speed / load.

those were great numbers though while they lasted, im sure the car felt crazy considering how soon boost hit

 

All these so called cars doing crazy numbers on stock block all end the same way with the block blowing . Forget that lol. I say either 2.0 or 2.3 all the way. A 2.3 is a pure beast and will improve spool etc. I say a 2.2 would be the best of everything but the custom parts needed to make one makes it less then desirable but i think he is going 2.3 for the ftw all i know is your 2.3 im 2.3 maybe we are on to something

 

SORRY BUDDY YOU ATE THAT COLD A$$ BUCKET OF CHICKEN ALONE. I might as well get some zip ties since its the industry standard . Anytime you see those its ghetto rigging at its finiest but its industry standard let me go clean my hands all the grease

 

Too funny! I'll make a few phone calls when I return from picking up my little girl.

 

What would you consider crazy numbers? I had a nice setup and my block never blew, my bottom end was as stock as they come.
