The complete braking system was that much. Not just the rotors. It is well worth the money if you are serious about road racing.

Let me know what you guys think of the engine bay. We worked for a while getting everything all pretty and nice looking. We are hoping this car will go into turbo or some other mag after it's completed.

housedj, for the same amount of money you could do a 2.4/GT35R build-up and get much better results.



I will keep you guys posted on the results.

Omg that thing is sick. I plan on doing something similar within the next year. At what rpm does your turbo kit spool up at?

With an EMS most owners are getting full boost by 4200rpm. The nice thing about the EMS over a reflash set up is that you get rid of the MAS and you can add timing. Both which help a lot with performance and spool.

complete bolt-in 2.4 bottom end. Bullet proof and ready to go.


The GT35R kit w/equal length manifold is our biggest seller. It works so well and you can make power so easily.



You can find a lot more information on both of them if you do a search. If there are any specific questions on either one just shoot me a PM. I will get back to you asap.

There are a few more new updates with the car. We have decided to build a couple more things to get the car where it needs to be to make big HP.



We are going to build the fuel system to support big HP


Aeromotive fuel pump(1000hp)
-10AN lines, Aero filter, all AN fittings
Fuel Rail


AEM CDI ignition



We are adding these components to give the car the ability to run some crazy boost. We are expecting some big numbers pretty soon. Then the customer will be able to road race and drag race the car. I believe this is also his daily driver so it going to be pretty crazy on the streets of Ca.

On your 2.4 liter replacement short block, do you leave the balancer shafts in? What is the redline with that motor?

We remove the balance shafts and do a lot of internal work to the motor. You are basically getting a bullet proof bottom end that can rev to 8500rpm with our head. It works great and we have been reving to 8500rpm for a while now without any problems.

Looks good RnR. Is that the "polished" manifold that you have?
