My 2.4/MIVEC/FPBlack Project is finally almost complete.

After my stock IX block let loose earlier this year I decided to upgrade.

The English Racing krew hooked me up with a 2.4 block and all the goods to put it together.

I was kind of on the fence on which turbo to go with, but after early reports looked so promising, I decided to go with the FPBlack. Newer posts on the FPBlack's performance make me really happy I bought it.

It is going to be really hard to argue with 500 awhp on pump gas that spools at ~3500. The powerband on this comination is going to be truely insane and oh-so fun to drive

1st startup tonight went perfect, no funky noises, she fired right up, hunted around a bit, and then settled down to an idle. I do have the normal startup issues to deal with, a leaky fuel line 'O'Ring, a couple of vacume hoses that still need routing, bleading the ACD, installing the front bumper, etc.

Major Major props to the English Racing guys for hooking me up, and for putting up with all of my questions.

Glad to hear she's alive Johnny! Cant wait to see and hear what she does.

nice work man.. the initial start up has to be a nervous moment, glad you didnt have any problems..
mine will be up over christmas break and i hope it goes just as smooth

 

NOICE....glad to be of service sir. I cant wait to see what this and Big Jake's end up doing. Looks like Jake might be going with a 37R now though

 

This sounds like 600 hp! Can't wait to see the finished product!
