Engine bay looks nice and clean. Trunk on the other hand looks like a rats nest.
Other than that very nice.

Thanks, I need to get updated pics of the trunk. I removed the system, carpet, jack, etc.

[Goddabob]

Good to hear, all that stuff is not needed anyways.

definately not lol

[Danronian]

I would blur your plate in that first pic.

That's some great progress. Did you get it tuned yet? Any numbers?

Is the motor all stock internally?

Looks like a pretty nice sized turbo for a D.

[redex04]

My friend and I tuned it ourselves on 8 pds. of boost when I was running AEM EMS but now I switched to Neptune RTP and just have it running on a base map. Once i get on all my new parts I have laying around I am taking it to Evans Tuning for a pump gas and race gas tune. Motor is fully built with eagle rods, srp pistons, zex cam, comp cam valve springs, acl bearings etc etc etc. Turbo is a Garrett T3/T04E 60 trim with a .63 AR exhaust housing.

Isn't that turbo a little big for the application?

Nice project!

Actually 60 and 57 trims are prob the biggest used turbos on these engines. I'm looking for some big power so the turbo is definately not too big.

Yep going have Jeff tune it. He has tuned some high hp d series so I think hes the best person for the job. Hes also only about 2 hours from me.

[Racersky]

Yes i know, usually 2 months in advance. I know i could make it and prob b good but I want to make sure everything is working properly and installed before I have an appt set up. Its not really a big deal as long as its before spring.

Nice numbers man. I think you should lower the car more?

[IntegrasAreBest]

[redex04]

Good Idea! I got some ground control coilovers getting ready to go on just need to order one collar because it is broken. Also have ground control extended tophats going on. Tbanks!

Power is amazing kinda bad timing because it is winter now but o well. I can't wait to get it to the track in the spring.
