Basically just a poping noise is all I had all the time. There is a vid of it on my YouTube page from last year

 

That's my cup of spare cobalt bolts. That, and several ziplock bags. I used to have a thinner, taco bell cup, but it split open one day. The Flanagins cup's are much stronger

They're also a good size to hold head bolts, whatever. I have a couple around the garage for specific purposes.

Do yourself a favor, get a repair manual for the car. It will detail those kinds of things for you. Believe me, you don't want to mess up the timing. A very small mistake can cause a ton of damage to your motor.

 

well here is an update of parts and how the build is coming along...

my new tranny mount



a really fast polish job that i did to my valve cover



Treadstone Performance Intercooler Kit for the new turbo upgrade:



New Treadstone Performance Cold Air Intake for the turbo upgrade:



Darton Sleeves (this is not my motor)



to make sure everything work good i got a dashhack



motor should be back and ItalianJoe1 shop late this week/early next week... if everything goes well should have my car back by next week!

 

Nice, when is Treadstone releasing their IC? Will it fir Aftermarket CP? Looks nice

 

i want all the parts you have.

 

i dont know because the aftermarket turbo kit its not on the same position as the stock one...

 

ok so tonight we will be doing the final touches to the motor... its already in we just need to do the re-learn on the camshaft and make sure everything works out well... here is a pics of my new gauge set-up with my dashack insntalled on the AC vent

 

lol i dont use that vent either

 

and it fits perfect

 

yeah I am sure it does... LOL

good work... I hope all goes well for you on it....

 

Thanks!

 

Why did u waste ur money on a narrow band ? A/f gauge

 

doesn't really matter. he has more money in his block than most would put into their cars

 

Congrats!!!

Seriously, when you finish, you are going to love it.

I blew my motor and rebuilt it, and did a custom turbo build all at once, and I LOVE IT!

 

Wouldn't that be all the more reason to invest in a wideband? Why cheap out in the monitoring on the engine's vitals with all of the money invested?

Either way the motor should be pretty nasty!

 

has a factory wideband and displays it on his dashhawk. probably got it to fill up the hole. lol

 

this is Nuts I cant wait to see some vids and BTW your sig is about to get sooooo long you r going to beat everything!

 

lol thanks!

i bought the triple gauge pillar used from a member and it came with it
im planing on getting a wideband so no worries

 

ok so i though to give an update on my thread....

motor is done... drives perfect! the only problem now is that i blew my turbo today... talked to Jason at Treadstone and the turbo kit should be ready to get installed in less than 2 weeks...

this is my plans for next year:

Valves
Valves Springs
Retainers
Port & polish head
Corrillo Rods (however you spell them )
tranny upgrade...(lets see what zzp comes out with or just build a G85 tranny)
SPEC stage 3+ or stage 4 clutch and flywheel
Meth kit

after all that well see how the car turns out.... keep in touch!!

 

do it to it monfrar

 

Turbo was cooked when you built the motor, no suprise there.

Lemme know when you're ready to do more work on it, i'm always down.

 

Lol I'm always down too but I have to pay off everything first and then we will work on this...
That's why I said next year
