gm wouldnt be able to tell about his tune but yeah all the wireing and the mounts would and to be back to stock, the supercharger would have to come of spring and the exhaust would be fine, thats not going to effect the motor. but the wires, they would tell you its not covered as soon as he pops the hood, it could be a valve or a blown head gasket, but if the head lifted, unless it reset its self from what i understand if it didnt reset it would not be start-able.

 

as far as the wiring, id tell em an animal chewed thru the harness and you repaired the wiring, hell, say i did it, im ASE certified.

 

im just going to rebuild it. there no point in me taking it in to get stock pistons put in, there just isnt. im going to blow it up again if i do that. I just got a deal on brand new eagle forged rods for 250 shipped new in box never opened from a member on here. Im talking with the vendors to see who can get me the best deal on pistons and a head gasket.

plans are:

2.8 pulley
60lb'ers
meth
pistons
rods
studs
head gaskets
possibly overbore depending on how bad the sleves are, and if they are as bad as dereks then il get darton sleeves and go even smaller pulley.

clutch and flywheel will need to be installed and this is a perfect time to do so.

 

you gunna tear it down at the house???

Derek, is your car done??

 

well unless theres somewhere else to do it, i dont think i have a choice but to tear it down here.

 

maybe your old man will let you drive the hemi in the mean time!!

 

**** no. i have to drive the S-Dime. he's already pissed i broke my car, im not going to awaken the beast.

dudes wonderering why his car is losing boost. dudes running a stg 2 77.9mm pulley on stock tune and injectors. then his butt buddy comes in saying its ok "cuz he runz a 2.7 on 42s with nitrous on the gm stg 2 tune" lol ****.

 

almost im picking up the motor in a hour and taking it back to the shop and going to paint the block with som high temp paint and let it dry for a few hours then its time to put back in and starting to finish the build that started 8 long months ago, the only things im waiting for now, and they will be here 2maro afternoon, are my window switch for my nitrous, and my walbro 255 fuel pump there in in illinois now and will have them 2maro for sure. motor will be back in car by friday if not saturday for sure,

yeah i just added my two cents worth in there now too lol

 

the o-ring was the problem i just put the new one from work in. runs like a champ.

 

what happened to your car now?

 

the seat that sits in the head and seals the injectors has an o-ring on it. it stretched out and came out breaking the seal causeing a huge vac leak that gave me a subie like sound and rough idle. so the boost either blew it out or it just came out on its own. But the car is seemingly fine now.

 

hey guys, my 7 Year old desktop finally took a ****, and i dont have the resorces to buy a new one yet, so my posts will be limited for the next few weeks.

 

holy hell

how much boost were you running?

 

about 14psi because i was like 2 degrees that night

 

a guy at work had the ******* ***** to call my car rice. mind you the kid drives an auto civic with the biggest ebay fart can he could find. needless to say i ripped his ***** off.

 

nice lol

Dereck has the JBP header right? I would like to hear that thing.

 

yes sir that is the jbp header.... it sounds bad ass...

I wanna note again I appreciate the chance given to me to work on dereks car.... Its been a tough long haul seeing derek upset all the time his car down and then seeing him make a 180 once it started.... im glad that I was able to help.

special thanks to tom and my buddy mario too for stopping by helping me break down the final bugs to get it start.

tomorrow will be a wrap up in getting the car road ready.

 

thanks again curt!!!!

yeah i have the jbp header, it does sound like a wrx with the header now, it sounds really bad ass with it on. the videos sound a little different then what it really sounds like in person, but im very happy with how it sounds. its bad ass, getting her road ready 2maro. but im sure there will be better videos of the car with the header.
