Going to be some fast evos headed to the shootout this year. im hoping to be on my next turbo then

 

I think your getting one arent you?

 

SPONSOR UPDATE STM! After beginning my build with STM and having Brian work with me from just a fun evo to convincing me to go all the way with my goal of fastest stock turbo evo they are finally officially on board and a part of the team now Got to meet them and check out the shop the other day which was awesome! Saw the ricer and emery RS which was really amazing to finally see in person as well as meet almost everyone who worked there! Cant thank you enough for all the help Brian! Glad to have you guys on board. I know records are going to be made this year!

STM jumped on board too!? Hell yeah, very nice! Maybe Emery will share some of his weight reduction secrets with you to help you reach that 9 sec. goal!

 

Glad to see you back after the eye stuff BJ! And yea finally confirmed that today with Brian. Also wont have any fuel issues now either. As far as weight goes, cut everything lol, everything not needed needs to go lol and i need to shed some weight too lol more cardio and less lifting lol

 

Cant wait to see the finished product!

 

Thanks bro! I cant wait either! Got a lot of exciting parts and weight reduction updates coming!

 

Yep, thanks to collin for putting up with me while i decided which one i wanted! Glad you now have STM on board! You've got one hell of a line-up backing you now.

 

Collin is the man. Just finished clocking my turbo for me and will have that on the way to me this week You will be extremely happy with the parts when you get them, they were better than i thought they were going to be and my expectations were high from the pictures and his reputation! Glad to have Collin on board he has become a good friend. And yes STM joined on yesterday! I was pumped especially since they had been working with me since the beginning and i got a chance to meet them all the other week which was awesome! Really great guys up there and im sure brian will have a lot more phone calls from me lol. I cant thank my sponsors enough. There support is absolutely amazing and without them my goal would not be possible. Really lucky to have the backing and support i do! More updates to come! Keep me posted on your build bud and your mats are in the mail today

 

UPDATE!!! HARD WORK UPDATE!!! So the evo has undergone massive surgery today and is about to have a empty engine bay shortly. Today i removed the trans and began to install the new Avid Solid Motor Mounts as well as my new FIC 2150s came in the mail today and the resistor delete pack will be coming in shortly to make it look cleaner and be plug in play instead of soldering. Also the motor will be pulled shortly as it is getting a new crankcase cover and oil pump and the head is being pulled for some work. Making a call on that this week.

Anyway Onto the phots

Oil Pump and Crank Case (Thanks Brian and STM!)



FIC 2150s



Trans Removed


Most PITA Part of whole removal Process







More updates to come soon! Goal is to be on the dyno ready to go full boost April 28th at DynoTech Dyno Day!!

 

looking really good mate , i thought you had to remove the power sterring line in order to use the STM overflow can ..

 

Thanks bud and yea thats what the website days but i went ahead to install it anyway and it just barely cleared. However i will be pulling the ps lines so it will have 100% clearance now it has like 2cm of clearance.
