my junk!!!

Post by screemin eagle »

here it is my 87 tsi with the narrow 4g63 swap started

http://www.we-todd-did-racing.com/public/viewset/960

motor is an eagle/wiesco combo balanced assembly clevite bearings.

head is a buschur abortion hack job but its ported with ss valves,HK$ springs,titianium retainers & HK$ 272's.i just ordered the JMF sheet metal intake for it flanged for 1g t body.

i went with the mighty max/d50 tranny just to get the car running. i got a custom Falcon 6 puck clutch disc with act 2600 pressure plate and a fidanza aluminum flywheel.

for fuel im running dsm link with 850 cc injectors,areomotive regulator,sx performance pump and filter. i dunno if i wanna go braided or hard lines from the tank to the bay yet.

turbo is my 16g old faithfull witch has been through a few motor break in's.
after break in i have a precision 50 trim mitsu style.HK$ standard waste gate and dnp equal legnth header.

there are still alot of other things up in the air with the car but it should be running by late spring. Its real hard to be motavated to work on it in the 20 degree weather.

sorry if it was so hard for you to read 41 words without comma's and me using the shift key. perhaps you should be proof reading grade school essays and not working on cars if it bothers you that much.
i rushed the first post my girl was bitching at me to get off the computer

It's amazing how small the 4G looks in the Starion engine bay. Wish I had that much room.

I agree. Before you know it your super clean engine bay starts to look like this:

Getting the engine bolted in is about 10% of the way there.
The next 80% can go quickly with help and skill.
That last 10% takes about as long as the 90% that came before it.
