Turbos already back in the car. Just gonna send it.

I thought about welding it up, then thought of probably having to do some machine work on it as well... not worth the cost in my head vs going full frame being as I already have a T25 housing for it. I just swapped over to wideband and eurodyne maestro so the plan was to go back to a ko3 for now ...

Pulled apart the GT2871R elim on my A4 to throw a new CHRA in and found these... Ive seen old K26 porsche turbos cracking like this but cant find eff all on instances of elim housing ls cracking. What do you all think? I dont really want to go full frame yet and Im not too pumped about throwing a ...

Coming right along!

I'm a bit bummed too but also excited for a new chapter!

Moving out of state and don't want to drag this stuff with me.... Ill post up pictures later today. Ill also be adding more stuff as I find it in the garage.. I am located in MN and moving out to Idaho this summer. Possible delivery could be arranged for folks out west when we move.

*Pair of ...

Are you still looking for an 01E? I've got a 5 speed that if sell. Also have Iroz small chassis mounts too, if that's the route your going. Located in MN.

Yyyyuuuuuuuuuuuuussssssssssss. Is it done yet?

Smugly says, "......gonna drive it all day everyday, like we can with these cars."

Burns it to the ground next pass.

Great job Hank! High power Lambos and GTRs are stale to me anymore, 850hp out of that TTRS is more interesting in my opinion.

Merry Christmas Dave! I got your text but haven't been able to reply, I haven't left my house at all today lol. I feel pretty confident in that mount. It's not the prettiest thing but it should work. The picture makes it look worse than it is. I tried heating it up some prior to welding to try and ...

This week continued....
Here a few more pics. I'd also ordered some hoses and a reducer for my IC plumbing last week which showed up as well. I ordered a couple of wrong sizes so I wasn't able to finish that stuff off this week. Thinking week after next I'll order up some more things to finish it ...

Merry Christmas or whichever holiday you celebrate this time of year! Hope you all are having a good holiday season!

I'd gotten a bit of time to work out in the shop this week and got quite a bit done! The motor, radiator and intercooler are officially done. I just need to make a small brace for ...

Pics of the downpipe. Looks huuuuuge bolted to a ko3 haha. I made it about as tight and high up as I could for a 3" tube. I'll have to make a relief in the skid plate when the time comes, but I'm happy with it.

Couple quick shots..

Now that the car has sat in time out for a couple months, I'm ready to get back at it lol. Had a pretty good season shooting ducks, got the black car pretty much finished off for the year and am now 100% focused on getting this pig together. Progress report!

While I was doing the gaskets on the ...

I've used them as a "mobile" solution working on other peoples stuff. Even now though, I'll take my Knipco(kerosene) over just about anything haha. Aside from an insulated shop with infloor heat :)
My setup now is a 24x48 uninsulated pole barn with concrete and walls that let daylight in in spots ...

Congrats Jared! Shame were moving 6 hours south of you, otherwise you'd have a resident creeper....

Wooohoooo! Moving forward! Coil mount looks good man. You have a spot in mind for those bad boys?

No, it's notched so it only goes on 2 ways(180*.) I ended up shaving the cam a bunch and a hair off the cable end to get it to fit right. 0-100% now with the pedal. Thanks guys!

What you need is a set of low profile injectors from a Volvo like I have. They lower the rail considerably, and as an added bonus they are an extended tip injector, so it puts it closer to the CIS injector tip location.


Can you post a pic? I'm fairly certain these are what I have in there now ...

Just drill a small hole for clearance in the fuel rail, shouldn't be a biggie ;)

That sucks, looks like you need to massage a bit of everything to get the room you need.

Now there's an idea! :)

I'm thinking shaving everything is going to be my only option. Sucks, I was hoping with this throttle ...

That's a bit of a buzz kill..... Lol. I was planning on tying in when I rewire the chassis in a year or two. If I don't rip the front end off that is lol.

Damn you and your reason Eric..... Lol

Glad to hear! I don't think readings would vary much if that ended up being the stop. There's nothing really to compress and change the reading. I figured it best to ask others who are smarter than I lol. I'll crank the idle screw in tomorrow and see where I'm at with the idle. Thanks a bunch!
