i would agree with your logic there 4.
6s aint hard to surpass but hey more power half the cylinders thats the dream!

 

I like how convenient the fill spout location is, neat build

 

In case you guys haven't known.... I got about 70miles in on the break in and i put the car away and next morning on start up i devolved an oil pressure issue.

After a a few days of dicking around, I discovered my engine builder RTV my front cover/Oil Pump on, and 90% sure this is my issue i don't know why he thought this was a good idea especially when i gave him that gasket

So now I have to have a "***** Moment" at this guys shop .

Hopefully this motor is no fucked, but I don't have high hopes. as of right now

 

Wtf way kinda Fucktard dose that didnt he have a book to follow?
Find out Wat he used to seal the block and bed plate. If he used rtv Ur Gona have to pull it out and tale the engine back apart. Cuz u will develop a main bearing issue soon. Along with main seal issues.

 

all seems good so far

 

Well duh. U will develop bearing issues. Cuz more of the rtv stays between the case halfs creating more clearance for the main bearings.

 

 

How are the IAT2s? with all the work you did

 

18 degrees over iat1 WITHOUT the tank, I'm currently redoing the tank in aluminum, that's more molded to the bumpers shape.

That was after four back to back pulls temps dont crepe up either

 

awesome! cant wait to see how they are with the tank

 

impressive!

 

I've been busy.

1. Replaced Vacuum lines, made a good difference in idle as i believe they were coplasing a bit under vacuum.

2. Corrected Some issues and Test some Significantly higher boost, My peak seems to be 15psi @6k rpms, I'll go higher(7300rpm) When I get this thing on a dyno to get properly tuned (its getting to dangerous to street tune...) & Over to synthetic. But other wise defiantly throws you back in the seat even with me ***** footing it, feels right about my power goals

3. Oil gets changed Tomorrow, I'll be at the 800mile mark !, last dyno oil change then I go to 5w40 synthetic.

4. Tinted the windows today!, unfortunately some scratches showed on the glass...(These cars must have soft glass) if anyone has got a wrecked car with good glass i'm down! hit me up

Video

Also I got a throttle position sensor, p0300 misfire code, & LIMP mode.
Now, I drove the car and a NASTY rain storm, parked the car outside in the shed for 2-3 days with freezing temperatures.
Went to start it immediately rough rough idle and pretty much popped those codes up, Now im going to assume it was ice in the intake and chuck it up as that, drove the car 15mins, parked restarted and limp mode was gone and then i cleared the codes.

This has been the only negative thing so far.

 

Nice man. These cars do have.soft glass my windshield has mad marks from the wiper blades that glares everything at night

 

Two words for the glass.

Jeweler's Rouge. Works wonders.

 

That stuff is the ****. I usually hit mine when I polish my car

 

Update: Car Still Running Good, Slight Cold start issues when below Zero.
engine has 1300Miles and is now on 5w40 Euro Full Synthetic.

Failure due to piston to wall clearance & spun a bearing, I actually think the block is ******* tweaked to be 100% honest with you & I'll likely make a table out of it.

Finished fuel system upgrades
Bigger injectors

Bought an GEN iii LDK SB
Going with e85 & E100 tunes this Summer on m62 I want to see what kinda numbers I can put down.

Car Is going Full retard and I'm going to gut it & Cage it

Also Going TVS Late this year after I move.

Sorry to hear about your car. Best of luck.
