foam pading ftw!!!!!!!

nah but i wouldnt be in that ride without a helmet....

would a cop stop you if you had a full roll cage and a helmet ....oh the looks you would get

 

that ____ would be tight. I could only imagine sitting in traffic. you will probably be more prone to tickets.

 

Yeah I was going to let it go for about 250. Practically have to give this thing away.

 

Yeah pretty much...thing is it doesn't hold much more than stock. Stage 2 cc holds better than the TRD from my understanding. If I'm not mistaken the TRD will hold 25%-50% more Tq over stock, something like that.

Trying to get my boy to buy it. He has been running the Dezod kit (T.E.A) on 11lbs of boost and a stock clutch for about 2 years now, and for what he does with his car, the TRD would be fine. His stock clutch is just now starting to slip. So, I offered my own personal installation services along with the purchase....lol.

Anyhow, back on topic.

 

how much travis. the stock clutch is designed to hold around 200 right ?

 

Wouldn't it be easier and more cost effective to simply gold-plate a single turbo to get the same gold-tooth bling factor and equivalent performance? LOL

To each his own...

 

Parts off to the coaters sounds familiar.

 

Ha!

Oh man.... the many times I've heard that

 

actually gold is the best heat reflector

That would actually be beneficial and bling status

They dont put gold on the mclaren's engine for nothin

 

Interesting setup.

I like the water to air intercooler.

This would worry me though.

The compressor housings seem very close to the radiator. I would be concerned about them bashing the radiator every time the engine torques, even with engine mounts.

It is close but at least its the cold side that's barley grazing it......shouldn't be that big of a deal, he's got a performance radiator...it does its job..

None the less incredible job TT this is some of the most creative work to come out for the tC.....I cant wait to see #'s does this customers car have internals done? I don't if it was already asked I'm going go back now lol n see.

i dont know if its just the picture but it does looks like its nearly touching the radiator.. it needs at least 1/4" clearance just to be safe

 

looks good...

 

If its anything like the Turbo kit wait then sit back and get ready for Summer 2010.

The "unfinished product" looks identical to my "finished product"

That's the very reason why I asked if it had Motor mounts. But yeah, now that I think of it, the clearance is so minute that motor mounts wouldn't help that unless they were solid mounts.

 

iv noticed the engine tq's toward the firewall but when its released is when i think it could cause problems. kind of a bounce back effect (you get what im saying...lol)

 

this is what i was talking about...btw ace its your car...lmao

 

lol no worries i fixed my car overheating by putting the stock fans back in the 4 slim fans didnt cut it too get the stock fans in i used a hammer a bad my foot and some bending o god dont hit the radiator one thing that is sure about the import crowd is they dont know what it means to make it work at any cost like older vw guys and hot rodders

 

^^ what do u mean explain.
