Just thought I would start my own thread of the winter build up.

Custom Pistons and wrist pins


Custom length Rods



JM Fab Torque Plate

New SMIM with second fuel rail
Easily the best made SMIC I have ever seen, constuctionis second to none.



Internal velocity stacks



2000Hp Weldon Pump and filters

Looks like a good start. Is that was the "street" or "race" SMIM? Was wondering why you wouldn't go with their "drag" version for this size of a project?

I'm going to be doing testing back to back hopefully on this Race SMIM and the JM Drag SMIM. I want to test for both Hp/Tq but also spool up and low and mid range Hp and torque. This is primarily a street driven car so I don't want to sacrifice to much on the low and mid range to gain a few Hp on top.

GT42R & primarly a street car, aren't words you hear together that often

That would defently be some interesting data to comapre. What kind of displacement will you be running & what kind of goals have you set for this build up?

An interesting question... Has anyone ever tried a 1 to 4 intake 'header' design (like a reverse 4 to 1 exhaust header) over the manifold?

It always seemed to me that the traditional design of the intake manifold was rather 'klutzy', and relied more on forcing air into the chamber and holding it there rather than promoting 'flow'.

This well be a stroker motor, and the goals are 900Whp which at my current weight should push me into the 150+Mph mark.

Just out of curiosity, and because I'm too lazy to search, but WTF does a torque plate do?

Please remember I'm not running a GT42R I'm running a Comp Turbo capable of out flowing a GT42R hence the GT42R Killer thread name.

^^^ I was going to point that out earlier, but I thought I'd let the man himself do it! I have a link to Comp Turbos in the 'Commercial Advertisements', as my good friend is the Canadian distributor for them.

Ron, the car/set-up is BADASS!

You bolt it to the block during honing to simulate the torque / stresses you'll have when the engine is all together.

Thanks And Ryan is a great guy to deal with! Joe or Justin at Comp are top notch guys and really now there stuff as they were in at Innovative Turbos Systems at the beginning.

Correct, the only thing is a lot of steel torque plates over distort the cylinders to much, when boring.

They are also the same guys that rebuilt my FP3575 with a fully rebuildable dual ball-bearing CHRA w/ larger shaft, since FP doesn't recommend running over 35psi with the small shaft the FP3575 comes with.

Pic of the car


Car is not a Drag car but a street car that sees autocross, and car shows and the local mall


4G63


Full interior Power everything

crazy ass car man. and that is one scary fuel pump

BTW i have the exact same rims only 17"

Nice car!! Numbers sound like lotsa fun!!

Getting ready for the new motor combo!



I would say progress pics, but in actuality the car is getting more and more torn apart. Rewiring most of the interior.





Removing the roof off the car! Can you say convertible.

Wow that is one nice looking 2g that engine shot was hawt! Nice car man.

Removing the roof??

Also what engine management system you using? EMS?

AEM

Thanks to everyone that has commented. I well be posting some new pics up shortly of the custom fab work that is being done.

^^^ Let's see that new snail!

I don't have it yet but shouldn't be much longer.

Are you doing a targa top ?

No just replacing the roof with a non sunroof skin.

Ahh ok, why's that?

I would guess that he is changing the roof skin to save weight and provide more clearence for wearing a helmet. Keep us updated with the pictures because that car is going to rock.

Some new parts arraived.

To make 150+Mph passes legal

dirrttty!. Goodluck with those 150mph+ passes! hopefully your drivetrain holds up!. Also, dont forget to get your licence if you dont already have it.

I'm sure the Shep Dogbox will hold up just fine, good luck with the rest tho!

Thanks and Yes I well be going for my licence this year.

Sent other pump back with new Hp goals in mind and well be running this Weldon Monster, and controller this year.

Wow, I know someone that has ran 9.3@150+ with 2 walbros(255 intank+255 inline), you must have some serious goals!

Yep but also my car is alot heavier then anyone else I have seen in the low 9's. You have to remmeber I'm over 3100 without me in the car and I weight 200Lbs.

Just to update and clear somethings up. My turbo is going to be a "GT42R Killer" hopefully, I won't be running a actual Garrett turbo. I well be running a new Comp Turbo with Proprietary Tech, and hopefully make the same or more power with quicker spool.

Put my back out project has been on hold for a few weeks, new updates to follow.

Update the roof is and widows are finally off the car


My new 90mm TB

Ron,

What is that Throttle body off of?
