Fishstix build at AKUMA Motorsports!

So many of you already know this high profile, Akuma sponsored EvoX owned by Jesse. The build is one of a kind! It has a Varis kit, coltspeed bits, volk Ce28n, Tomei exhaust, and ARC everywhere. This is my kind of build! Jesse brought us the car to install all his new goodies and we did just that. Below is some pictures of the parts we will be installing as well as the progress we have made so far. Enjoy! More to come, soon.

Rolling shot on the way to the shop here in Woodbridge, NJ:



MAPerformance tubular manifold:



FP black (new ball bearing design):



AKUMA Big maf intake:



Motor out for install of new Spec clutch and Fidanza flywheel:



Picture of this beauty all torn apart.



We're also doing a hks fuel rail with custom fuel system and aeromotive fpr. More pics to come!

Next week sometime. We need to put miles on it to break in the new clutch. I'll keep you updated!

Nope, 93oct. We don't have much access to E85 here in NJ.

It's actually a Clutchmasters flywheel. It weighs 11 lbs as opposed to Fidanza's 9 lbs flywheel.

I thought I was seeing stuff when I saw your username post in this thread. LOL!!

We can have you talk to John when you come in. We need cars to promote and hit shows so if that's what you're doing maybe he will offer you something.

BTW- I LOL'd pretty loud when I read the lsb carnigan line hahahahahahahaha

I thought news on the ball bearing FPBlack was that it's taking a long time. Is it an actual FP or did somebody modify it? Also, Fish, why are you doing that on a stock motor? I don't want to hear about you blowing your wad, I mean load, I mean engine due to a too-big turbo. Even if it's a conservative tune.
