A military member's Build overseas

Updated 23 Feb 2012

Well, I figured I'd make a build thread since everyone seems to. I'm stationed in Germany and I'm stuck with waiting forever on parts and I'm limited to just 4 track weekends a year here. Our first one will be in April so I'm patiently waiting on all my parts to get here so I can get underway. I'll update this as I get parts ordered and take pics as I get parts.

2003 Evolution V///

Purchased and waiting to arrive:
MAP EF4
custom intake manifold made from a stock intake manifold

Already purchased and in the garage:
Custom 3" side dump exhaust with 02 dump, exits out from bumper, hardly any bends
1000cc injectors (thinking of going to 2150cc though)
Double pumper
Japspeed tubular manifold
hallman pro manual boost controller
4g64 crank
Map stage 1 stroker assembly
wiseco 10:1 pistons .040 overbore
H-beam rods
ACL bearings
6 puck clutch

Still need to purchase:
slicks
cams (thinking of going with Buschur BF272s, but may start the season without them)

Looking for 600-650whp on E85. Can't wait to get underway.

Whoo hoo!! Nice setup man. Sub'd :)

Sounds like it's going to be a good build {thumbup}

Seems like a nice build.

Where you at in germany? What kind of track racing do you want to do? THere is way more than 4 weekends givin the work schedule, Race Wars, Speed Days and open track days Hockenhiem and NurbergerRing....

He is more into drag racing...

Got the rods, bearings, pistons, and crank. Also ordered a 6 puck clutch and double pumper. First post updated, pics to come later tonight.

Going under the knife tomorrow!

Nice build..good luck!

Not bad, not bad at all!

4 Track weekends a year????? Why is that?

pat,
that is about all there is here maybe a few more here and there. And the drag strip is an old shut down flightline so not really a real track.

Good luck with the build

Just curious what do you do out in spang? I know some people there. But they are in the AF.

Yea I'm in the AF too. I'm POL, I work on the fuel trucks that issue fuel to the jets. I'm getting out though, so the build is on hold currently. I'm debating to go ahead and do it now, or finish it when I get home to SC.

im pol but in the army, in baumholder. im in between spang and ramstein
