[inphluence] 2.3 Stroker / FP-Black / Meth - Build Thread | Videos & Photos
First and foremost - before anything, I have to thank Ashby Autosports for EVERYTHING they have done for me. They have bent over backwards and then more for me on this build. By far this has been the best shop I've ever been to.
ADDED MORE PICTURES TO POST # 2 ON OCT 20TH

Back in March I had plans of dropping my car off for a week just to install meth. Which then lead to redoing all my pipes - AshbyAutosport made me a set of custom pipes, radiator - CBRD Dual Pass Time Attack Radiator, fmic - ARC, and few other stuff I lost track of now.
What the engine Bay looked like the day I dropped it off in March. Ashby Autosport wraps every car they work on to prevent scratches! Thats when I had a feeling I was going to like this shop!

Before I go ahead and type up the story about my build, here's a teaser video for you to watch. This is just a cut from the documentary style video I am shooting for the shop, a few sponsors and a tuner/lifestyle online magazine.

More updates: I finally got a chance to swing down to the shop today, car is looking great! Most of the recent pics were just sent to me from Ashby Autosport so it was nice to finally see the car in person again.
Here are a few pics I took today:
Power Steering Cooler and Oil Cooler:
Relocated FuseBox & Electronics.
Exhaust is completed - This thing is BEAST! Can't wait to hear what it sounds like.
Also got the ends of my strut coated:
Cosworth Oil Scraper:
Whitelines
Fully Functional Duct!

Ok huge batch of photos from Ashby Autosport today:
More pics of ACD Relocation Bracket:
And Relocated ACD:
Jay @ AshbyAutosport creating a template for the airbox their making me. This will truly take advantage of the Headlight Duct I have.
Early stages of the 3.5" exhaust build:
And the Burns Stainless Muffler:
Radiator Back in place - added Power Steering Cooler:
And yes... the engine bay is gonna be CLEAN!!!!
So today Ashby was busy with fabbing up my custom exhaust! I'm pumped to check it out at the shop!
Here's the muffler we went with - straight pipes to this bad boy. It's gonna be loud! A little worried that it's gonna be too loud.

Nice looks interesting and nice vid! It's going to be a long drive down to Jersey. I guess you can break it in then!
