I'm about to do some thing like that. Can you post up a couple pics?
Thanks.

That's the feedback I was looking for. Is your car a dry sump. Forgive me if I'm pcv ignorant, but the stock pcv lines from each cover T together and run into the dry sump canister. I was assuming I could do something similar with AN lines but would have to T them together to go into the single canister port. Then I would just run the can from the oil fill.

I'm interested in pics of you have some.

heres one diagram from the MM site for a dry sump car.

Just FYI, instead of powdercoating them, they come in black

Those are nice, and I considered them. I just didn't want the anodized black finish or want to pay $900 for valve covers.

Update:

The car made it back on the ground and down the road today which is awesome. I've definitely put some hours in on it. All things went pretty smooth with the exception of the speed sensor not working and I'm getting a high voltage code on the fuel level sender. I'll have to do some digging on those.


I got my side skirts on today today as well

Well I've got around 600 miles on the new setup now. Break in oil has been changed and I'm scheduled for dyno tune tomorrow morning.


This past week I got my valve covers back from powder and installed. I removed the connectors for the coils and O2 sensors on top of the engine and soldered the wires for a cleaner look. I was also able to finish the catch can install. Friday my front splitter made it in and on the car. I'm really happy with how its all coming together. Hopefully all will go smooth tomorrow and we'll see some decent numbers.

Dyno went well today. No issues arose. Only had e60 in the tank and blower maxed at 10lbs of boost she mad 701hp and 633tq on a Dynocom dyno. Should translate to about 750hp on a dynojet which is exactly what I hoped for until I upgrade the blower. I'm happy.

I gotta ask, is it really worth the upgrade price (around $3K after taxes not counting resale value of the Si) going from the Si to the Ti? +4lbs of boost and +50 CFM?

I haven't looked into prices yet or read heavily on specs. About the only thing I know for now is I don't care to have the car making over 1000hp so I don't see the need in going to a YSI and potentially loosing power on the bottom end.

Engine bay looks very clean. Alternator bracket looks good powder coated black

awesome build !!! I have to ask though, what pulley did the car have when you purchased it? The tune must have been reliant on the meth for it to blow like that. Also why did you choose to run the 3.6 pulley despite having a forged short block.

Again awesome build. It takes a lot of patience and skill to make an engine bay look that pretty

With the IW overdrive crank pulley, the 3.6 has me over spinning the blower by ~1000rpm @7000rpm. It's maxed out now.

Yes, the previous tune was definitely meth reliant.

I appreciate the kind words.
