I'll be updating this thread as I do things with the car, and hopefully it'll be on the road for a long time!

(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score Some small updates: Sourced a new crank from my buddy @robry; so I don't have to mess with getting the one I have with a spun bearing machined. Need to get a head as well, then the short block will be off to the machine shop for honing and getting the top of the block and bottom of the head resurfaced. Once that's done, I'll be ordering Manley H-Beams, cp-e stage 2 pistons, and all the new gaskets and bolts and whatnot. Picked up some cp-e safeseals as well  Also picked up a wrinkle black timing cover and valve cover from my good friend @Lewis7789; which will be going on the built motor. He did a fantastic job on these!  Now to decide...what turbo and manifold I want/can afford....

Big ass buck, jumped out from my left, and landed its feet on my hood and headlight and not through my windshield)    And the go fast parts I got from Mark

(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score Update time: - Got the lower DP and oil lines from @Realgib3; -Got an EBCS from @HawkeyeGeoff; -5858 journal bearing came in today. -need to pick up 3bar map and pnp harness from @pmartz16; -waiting on a 2.5"-2.5" coupler for the turbo to hot pipe on the FMIC, and then it's ready to install on the stock block til I get the built motor done. Just need to find a free weekend to install everything. Power will be kept down while still on the stock block, but I'm sure it'll be enough to have some fun with til the built motor is together!

In other news, grabbed an OCC today as well from Patrick. So the only other thing left to acquire are the oil fittings for the turbo so I can connect the lines and I'm ready to go. Just need to find a free weekend between school and work.

(Thread Starter) | Neutral : +1 score Absolutely LOVE the way the engine bay turned out! Thanks again to Evan #1 for hooking me up with the wrinkle black valve cover, and to Patrick for doing the previously ugly white intake manifold in wrinkle black as well. Don't mind the dirty battery/tray, intake, and random walnut media all over. It shall be cleaned and detailed after winter ends.

(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score Update time: This setup flows incredibly well. So well in fact; that on a 9psi wastegate spring, and 0% Wastegate Duty Cycle, I am hitting 24psi. So standard hybrid tuning is out the window, and @Realgib3; is going to have to control boost with the throttle plate and load tuning. I feel bad that it's gonna be a pain in the ass the tune, so I'll be supplying Mark with substantial quantities of craft beer to keep him sane! Realgib3 likes this.

(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score 90% sure the issue is the wastegate at this point. Should be able confirm soon, as I'm picking up my friends pw46 from him tomorrow to test on my car; which should do the trick now that I have a working EBCS. In anticipation of the WG being the culprit, I've ordered a new diaphragm/piston assembly from PTE for my Pw46 tonight.  I'll be rebuilding that sucker as soon as it comes in and the issue is confirmed. Then it's time to make a lil powa!

(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score Moar Update: Borrowed Jake's EWG and that solved the crazy overboost issue. Got my replacement Diaphragm and Valve assembly from PTE yesterday, and will be rebuilding it tonight after class. Also now that the EWG thats on the car is working, got a new map from @Realgib3; yesterday and took a log on the way to class today. the car is doing what he's telling to do for once, so that's a relief. Here's a vdyno to show what the car is making on very conservative timing and low boost until higher RPM. Can't wait til she's dialed in!

(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score Soooo, the car was supposed to be on the dyno at 8am this morning. Last night while finishing up the tune with @Realgib3; on the street, I got this (had to let off early because of traffic)  Then as I came back to take a log in the same spot, the 6 puck decided that the 48k rough miles I put on it was enough and this happened  Now it just slips any time I go WOT. So tomorrow, I'll be putting another clutch in with some help from Mark. overnighted a new throw out bearing and picked up some MT90 from summit racing.  All I can say, is thank goodness it didn't happen on the way down to or at ENM

(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score Pulled the 6 puck on Sunday. The clutch itself still had life on it after 50k or so miles, which surprised me. The throw out bearing and the pressure plate were toast however. Back to a stock clutch setup as this motor will never see enough tq to warrant another 6 puck (or similar), and I have no plans to run slicks or anything.

| Not Ranked : 0 score Sweet ride man! This is an inspirational thread to say the least. I do have a question: did you ever get your gauges working again? I know that in the earlier post you stated that you removed the sammich plate. Only reason why I ask is because I am looking to get a plate and I don't know if I should buy glowshift or prosport? |
