I am very excited that everything is comming togather on my car within the next month or two. later this week when i get my paycheck i am ordering my alky injection.. Along with my injectors and fuel rail from AMS... and in early febuary my trans goes out to get built and i am putting in my new clutch... also in this mixture i am getting the ported and coated exhaust mani from buschur and my 9 turbo should be in... then i just need to save up to send it to FP for the red rebuild. Then once im done with that i am going to begin to order all the parts to build the motor... so im hoping by June i will have the motor built, trans built and turbo kit on.. i am shooting for around mid 500whp

 

sounds like your going to be quite happy soon haha keep us informed with the build prgress and numbers your making!!
good luck

 

definatly ive heard mid 500's is very easy to achieve with that turbo so we will see... im doing weisco pistons but im debating on either oliver rods or alluminum rods anyone have any opinions?

 

Aluminum rods are great for drag racing or circuit racing were the motor gets rebuilt and the rods can be checked for stretch. If this is going to be a daily driver than best to stick with quality steel rods, Eagle are good, Oliver are good, a few others out there as well.

i want oliver rods but im hearing that i should go with eagle... im definatly doing weisco pistons!

 

Keep us posted on your project

 

definatly im very excited about it haha... i never got the chance to build my old one or upgrade the turbo so to me high 11's on stock turbo is fast... im very curious what this will be doing in the 1/4 when im done

 

im kind of nervous to make high hp before i do the motor because my compression is 150 all the way across except its 135 in cylinder 3... so im ganna to keep is around 430-450ish until the motor is done which shouldnt be to long after

 

ok today i got some things got a few parts from a friend he put on but had to go bigger and some parts he had layin around and orderd some things...

1000CC injectors -150bucks
evo 9 turbo- 200bucks
ams fuel rail 130bucks
AEM Alky kit 395 shipped

thats what i orderd/picked up today

 

It pays to know people, eh. Post some times when you get them lol

 

definatly will probly be about a month and a half until all is done because i work in sales also and they r a little tough right now...i am having a great month is month so the bonus's helped me out alot haha

 

alky kit came in today ended up going with buschur's kit instead of AEM's... turbo should be here in a few days finishing up ordering things next week and trans goes out in 2 weeks....

 

I myself would go with either crower/oliver rods over eagle rods anyday. Check with buschur, I believe i asked him about those rods awhile back, and he advised me not to waste my money on them.

 

sounds awesome!

 

ive decided to go with eagle I beam rods
