Default The New King !

KING OF BLING

I have been having trouble getting my car ready in time to hit the track this season, so I have put her into over drive this last week.

Big Stuff 3 - Check
Fuel System - Check
Turbo Kit - Check
Intercooler - Check
Forged 402 - Check !
BLING FACTOR - Check !!!

Believe it or not, I built this custom kit, had a friend help me drop in the motor. It was a busy week for my mechanic, so I did all this work my self. Needless to say my hands hurt like hell after 60 hours of slave labour. So I just have to measure up a belt due to the alternator relocation, and run some vacume line for the boost controller, wastegates, map sensor and catch can and I am finally ready for the DYNO !!













I know my Camera phone sucks, but which me luck getting her tuned next week boys !

Lets see how long it takes for you to build your custom turbokit uncle Roger " sell me your headers "

You had your chance way back when ... You will have to slit my throat and steal my car before I pull these headers off to copy for you.

6 Speed Upgrades ...

I managed to get DSS to make up some custom 300m Half Shafts & G-Force to make up a 300m Tranny main shaft for me. ECS made me a sick torque tube with u-joints rather than rubber pucks, and I have a McLeod Twin Disc Meba Clutch. I have the diff built up with DTE pinion support, 300m output shafts, and clutch pack/spring kit & brace. I figure the case will be the weakest link ... Pray for me

Here are some pictures :











300m vs Stock
