Precision 780’s
Precision Fmic
Tial 38mm gate
Tial bov
My own piping and 3in d-pipe
Ems+wb
NXL kit, cant seem to get rid of it, so imma squeeze if need be
Im still waiting for the cp’s and the manifold which are taking forever to arrive…But everything else is collecting dust at the shop. Ill keep this post updated as per my progress. Realistically i expect to have it done next month sometime. Heres a few pics of the pretty stuff:
I have a shop on the DE/PA line called 1st State Motorsports. We are dealers for Precison, ERL, Full-Race, NX, Tial and several others…So by staying with manufacturers we did buy-ins with i kept cost to a minimum and even got a free part or two in there…Heres a link to a couple of pics of the shop and customer cars if you are interested Chris–shop
Its about time bro. You have the best platform for a car to make serious power. Not like the NOS isn’t good enough, but its no where near the same. With that much hp and your weight you are going to fly.With your weight all you need to make is 390-400whp to run 10’s. With 500whp, your worst pass will be a 10.90 (missing a shift or off throttle shifting).
Just a little over 6 months, stop by anytime you like we are here from 12-8 mon-sat and there is always some crazy shit being worked on here. We just finished up 2 boosted s2k’s and a couple other cool projects…
Mike, thanks man…I def expect the car to go deep tens with me behind the wheel. Mainly im hoping my girl can net a 10 sec pass out of it as well. Hows your car holdin up, faster than the gn yet;)?
Macon, You know youll always be the copilot, except when we put you behind the wheel for a pass or 2. I know you got it in you…
Looks good! Im looking to upgrade my turbo from my current t3/t04e 50 trim. Im looking at the either the t67, like you’ve got or the GT35R. Im leaning more towards the GT35R.
Anypics of those ERL mani’s? Are they log or tubular? Are you able to keep the stock size rad or would you have to go smaller? I assume you have to smaller, civic style rad, in order to fit the turbo and manifold under the hood.
Thanks Jake, i was gonna part the car and start a new project, but i want this thing to bust tens. Im not givin up on it yet…
Here’s a little info on the manifold. ERL
It hasnt arrived yet, but their rep showed me one and made me an offer i couldnt refuse. It cast stainless similar to the inline pro, and should work with the fullsize rad, with a turbo smaller than the 67…
nice
