weekend fun
the next thing is how can we get 300whp on a street tune with this blower, what insanity will happen if that is possible, and what mods will we need to do it... besided the blown 4 banger mod. lol.
Also, actual cost of my build thus far (not including some misc stuff), is $2700. For everything.
Those are some awesome numbers. I am soon to be getting my meth kit and was wondering if I should just run straight water until I get tuned for it just for the cooling mods? You guys seem to be the ones who would be able to answer this question.

it's your call really.
just fwiw. my iat2's at the end of the run was 147 at 126 mph or 7800 rpms. started at 122. once past 7k. the temps started going up quick. gee wonder why

overspinning the blower would be my guess, way out of it's efficiency on a 2.7 above 7K engine rpms.
So you got custom pistons, custom rods, custom cams, custom valves, 30+ hours of labor machining the crank, $1200 worth of cryo freezing, a $1200 clutch, $800 axles, 20+ hours of head work, and $1000 worth of gauges. Not to mention the n/b shafts, and adjustable cam gears. I tallied ALL the expenses, not just engine stuff.

rods we had at work, weeee
cam's, check
dident do valves, i'll give you that.
crank was done by a local race shop that owed me several "tune this F-body" favors
axles i've had for a bit now.
could not say how many hours are into the head, since i dident do it, but i do know the flow numbers are superior to anything else i could have bought or got my hands on.
neutral balance shafts, check
cam gears, check (they cam back to bite me in the ass, make sure you go FAR AND ABOVE the spec'd torque)
gauges, i had some and added to.
"(AFR, interceptor, EGT, Boost, oil pressure)
the trans had been cryo-d in the past and the new engine parts got the same treatment.
that was done with a small cost from a shop we use here at work.
so yea all and all.....yea.
I still cant see how you got that preveously mentioned total...crazy!
I'm not trying to make this a pissing match cam, just stating that you paid a ****** boat load for your project.
such devotion should be commended.
+1!!
