more build idea stuff.... http://www.performancecoatings.com/index2.html ....looking at the satin dark blue(ive seen on a sick scca supra) or the satin black for the new turbo mani. & exhaust side of my turbo. In the BENEFIT DATA section half way down the page r the results from thier test (which im sure r bias) give a general idea of coatings. I mainly want 2 do this for the drop in engine bay heat, well and some of the other benifits.
this has been my random build thought of the day

well if i ever get my motor back in my hand we will find out....but i have looked alot at my girls 2.2 and pics of the 2.0 and 2.0 parts and everything looks 2 be kosher...my only concern is the firewall & the intermediate shaft...the fire wall needs alittle more than aprox. 7.5" 2 clear(from the head). so this should be more than fine. The turbo hangs aprox. 9" from the bottom of the flange(t3\t4 57trim) so it hangs down by the inter. shaft, but i dont think its as low as(looked but havent measured). But it also looks like even if it is down by the shaft that it hangs far enough away from the block 2 miss the shaft(meaning sits behind)......so thats the scoop hopefully i will have more soon
06blackg85ss have u thought about running the LS4 tb on your setup. I am planning on doing so but didnt know if there would be any bad side affects. I know its not needed 2 make the power i want but, i already have one and it never hurts 2 go with a little bigger tb....imo
