Qwibby · 12-17-2010, 06:49 PM

thanks man! I usually get around to a lot of meet's. I'll be around

Bates · 12-17-2010, 10:52 PM

The faster your car gets, the longer mine gets stuck in the shop! Stop going fast so my car can go fast too! ;)

supraghost · 12-18-2010, 11:06 PM

that thing is a beast. post up some pics when you get the wheels on

Qwibby · 02-21-2011, 02:17 PM

Back from the dead!!!

Motor is in and tuned, but as stated has the weak rods, so I am stuck at about 290 whp, I am having it dynod soon.

My buddy just crashed his 04 with the same swap but he has the forged gm bottom end, I am picking that up and swapping it in.

But I am having a lot of maintenance issues now, hub bearing, electrical system, and tedius other things, so progress in performance is slow.

Justin, Thanks

When are you coming down to our Monday meet? I want to see this thing in person! Sounds like a neat project.

Qwibby · 02-21-2011, 02:38 PM

Qwibby · 03-06-2011, 10:22 PM

Update: Ordered my 17x9 Hyperblack Rota Grids, Big Turbo Kit, New Intake Manifold and New bottom end

Qwibby · 04-06-2011, 10:31 PM

For those of you who care and are following my build I have quite a substantial update.

Wheels And Tires

17x9 +42 Rota Grids Hyperblack w/ Deevo Lugs and 235/45/17 Nitto Invos

New TTR Intake Manifold and 80mm LS1 TB

Got it on the dyno too. At timing retarded 6-8 degrees under boost and a failing Boost controller I managed 246 whp @ 6600 rpms and 236 tq @ 5500 rpms (new boost controller is coming friday and once the new bottom end is in(sometime around thanksgiving) I am going for 400)

Thanks guys!

Burnt2Death · 04-06-2011, 10:40 PM

Lovin the new wheels and nice cav in general man.

Qwibby · 04-06-2011, 10:45 PM

Yeah man we were supposed to meet up at steves no?

DexterZX2 · 04-07-2011, 09:49 AM

Great build so far. From one domestic compact owner to another, I understand the pasion you feel towards your car. Building an Escort I get the same comments from others, but it's worth everything when you build your car the way you want it with your own hands. Keep up the awesome work.

JDMTyler3326 · 04-07-2011, 09:51 AM

This is like the only Cavalier I would drive.

Qwibby · 04-07-2011, 10:25 AM

Thank's guy's! I appreciate the kind words.

Doesn't the "ghetto" big brake kit the n-bodies use bolt up to the J's as well? Impala SS 12" rotor w/ 4th gen f-bod dual piston calibers is what i'm running on my GA....

Awesome build man, whenever you want to molest my ecotec... let me know

Qwibby · 04-07-2011, 09:12 PM

thanks man....

my hallman pro RX showed up today

Qwibby · 06-02-2011, 01:44 AM

Update: Car is under the knife again for a Patriot Stage 2 head w/ +1mm valves, new cam timing, new bottom end, Precision 6262sp turbo, equal length header, tial 44m wastegate w/ external dump, 3" exhaust that dumps at the axle, All new gaskets, injectors and tuning. Shooting for 330 whp or 300whp @ 7000 rpms, which ever comes first.

Tinkles · 06-02-2011, 04:43 PM

Why the downgrade to the Patriot head? I thought that you already had an AMMfab ported head with the Supertech valvesprings...
