Well i never gave any updates since there wasnt a whole lot of intrest in the thread but for anyone that is intrested here are some final pics of the rebuild. Got it done just in time for HIN Dallas 9/22/12. Motor is broken in at this point and currently running on 25psi on a street tune. Not sure what kinda power numbers though as i havent hit a dyno yet but when i finally do hit a dyno ill let ya know. Enjoy the pics.

HIN Dallas

 

Nicely done. When do you think you will have it dyno tuned?

 

i think it looks cool. you interested in bring one of your tc's back to dfw for some track time in November?

 

Running a ACT single disk 6 puck Heavy Duty Clutch.... and its berly holding at that boost level lol. If im gonna contine running this boost level i may just need to make the jump for a twin disk or turn down the boost a little. Not sure when ill be getting dynoed. Short on money and closest dyno i know of is 6hrs away.

I would love to make a trip to dallas but right now im short on funds and got a lot of bills coming in. Need to focus more on getting in more work and making some money before i go out of town again so right now i just wont be able to make it. Next time i make plans to hit up the DFW area ill let you know something though man

 

I'm leaning towards ACT clutch as well. So, just the bottom end is built. Head stock correct?

 

Correct.. fully built block and stock head for now. Gonna start working on a built head sometime next year maybe.

 

Hope my trans doesn't have issues when I put this much boost on her in the near future, cause I don't feel like pulling it out and then the LSD, rebuilding/replacing the trans...etc.

 

I havent had any issues yet but that is the one thing im worried about. Ive got a spare tranny just incase but i just really hope the tranny in it now will hold up. If it blows then i may just turn down the boost a little on the next one.

 

Car is looking good, would be nice to see some numbers though. Next time you make it to Dallas let me know as well as I might be able to meet up with you or something. I also have my car up there at a shop being put together with a similar setup to yours. Fully built motor, some head work done, turbo, etc. Just waiting on more parts, you know how that goes. Never ending process. LOL

 

extremely nice build

 

Nguyener: for sure... Next I make plans for Dallas I'll be sure to hit u guys up for a meet up.

Everyone else thanks guys. A lot of hard work went into this build in a very short time.

 

Are you running an lsd? Great build, looks awesome!

 

Thanks and yea I have an LSD. I'm running a Quaife LSD

 

Awesome build! Looks great and I'm sure its a fun ride!

 

I bet that thing pulls like a monster! Any way we could get a quick go pro/cell phone video?

 

Nice work Adrian! Looks stellar.
