sasquatch's quest for MORE POWER!!!!!!! its turbo time....

[eurotiva]

I think we are all wanting to run 11's. If that was my goal I would have already done it.

My goal was top 10 with a/c. Boooyaaah. DONE.

Next comes an 11 sec car.....oh yea i have 1 of those too.

I need to find one beater without a/c to make a drag car

[sasquatch]

ok i didnt get much done on the car today... but i did get some pics... im gonna try my best to get it going tomorrow.... not to much big stuff is left to do... its mostly all small stuff... the only "big stuff" is the rad and exhaust...

got my wastegate dump fixed, it looks way better now


and got the last intercooler pipe in and the bov mounted.



and some other little bits and bobs.... just some random pics of progress...

Can't speak to the former, but the latter is being deleted by EMS to my knowledge...

Whose shop are you at?

bumper bracket??? who needs a bumper bracket...

im making a small frame to hold the bumper to the body when i get that far...

and the VAF has been taken out cause the motor is on standalone...

Whose shop are you at?

im at LS tires, its my friends shop... its a tire shop but he has a hoist and a fair bit of metal fab stuff...

ITS ALIVE!!! it runs and drives, but it still needs a bit of work... im gonna get the exhaust done tomorrow and then if its not raining, head out to the track im hoping for a low 14 sec pass if it dosnt go ka-boom, and if i can i would love to leave with a 13 sec pass

That's purty, very clean, now let's see if it'll stay that clean once you start driving it "gently"

[Damkid]

Make sure you post time slips after you get back from the track

[sasquatch]

ok so no track time for me today for some strange reason the head gasket blew so i have to pull the motor and replace it with a JY motor or rebuild this one... (still havnt had much time to think about it...) i may just "build" the motor over the winter (fordged pistons and rods, port the heck out of the head, oversized valves and get a big set of cams...) but i dont know if i can afford to do that...

even tho i know the motor is done, i couldnt help myself from taking it for a rip behind the shop, and OMFG!!! on 5 psi this thing is a beast!!! its feels like a new car now... i have some pics and a vid comming in an hour or 2, i have to edit the vid cause there is alot of usless junk in there lol...

[FestYboy]

the headgasket let loose already?!?! what the..????

[Flyin4stroke]

Forget to tighten something?
