Thumbs up motor install almost done

ok well dapper dan is near completing the install of my 2.3l stroker from ams, waiting on one part that should be here today, with that being said the car should be done by this weekend and i am getting so excited lol. im hoping to put down around 450whp 450tq with all the mods in my sig on a dyno jet. That will be a fun stop light to stop light daily driver while im paying off all these other parts lol, next step will be an hta 35r at the start of next year, well feel free to make comments. thanks alot guys-travis

I was about to ask the same thing...

Watch for it... There's going to be 10 pages of justifications that Ebay IC's are as well built as our vendors...

it kills me how alot of people on here have a problem making a positive comment, im 20 years old and in college, i have to cut corners in the safest areas i can, my motor build was not by choice my other motor blew, there is nothing wrong with ebay intercoolers especially at the power level i am currently at, i try to do the best i can do with my car with what i got.

the car here at my shop had made 480 with the rnr 3076r kit and meth and the rnr kit used an ebay intercooler the one thing I will warn you though in traffic it will heat soak really badly and it takes a good 2 or 3 miles before it cools back down. None the less nice build on a school budget, GL

yeah im sure you can make more power but not enough for me and im sure other people on here to spend an extra 500 bucks for the small amount of hp you will pick up on a moderate to slightly aggressive setup.

No problem, everyone treats their cars differently... thats the point of modding, everyone has their own combos, thats what makes one car faster than another.

Its all part of the fun of modding or everyone would have the same exact mods, suspension, wheels etc etc etc..


Cheers!
