Don't Hate .....Congradulate

the goofy looking very non functional IC makes this whole project sorta a exercise of futility IMO.

Looks damn good....I really need to get back in the game and get others cars done so I can start back on my own...

I have with a supercharger case and a s2 ic.... i figured it counted.

Nope, but thanks anyway. Just set back and enjoy the show. Its either going to perform good, bad or somewhere in between. Anything at this point is pure speculation.

Any more PIC's? I am working on my tuning, trying to get her to spool up "proper like". Turbo is such a different beast than a SC. Hope you have some tricks to spool that big azz turbo you got?

Updates???

Dean is just sorting out all the final details, A/C lines, exhaust, hoses etc..

Not much of an update...

[This message has been edited by BV MotorSports (edited 10-14-2012).]

It appears to be missing a few pieces...

Wider front fenders, a hood vent and 1/4 scoops/vents? Possibly a decklid vent?

Just guessing.

BV, I applaud your patience with DH because somewhere along the line he never grasped the concept that a person never stops learning.
Heck, even the great performance builders have picked up tips from other people.
He seems to think if he hasn`t done it "it ain`t going to work"

The thing is, we dont know how its going to perform. It either will or it wont. We are trying something new and since I am the one paying the bill, I am the only person than needs to be satisfied with it. DH's opinion is moot at this point.

Any estimate on when it will be 100% complete? I want to see video of this thing running/driving!

Dean says it will be running tomorrow.

Will it???

Great looking build! Can't wait to hear it run.

DH, are you referring to the double stack supercharger intercooler? Is there a reason it wouldn't work with a turbo but would with a SC?

Also, why the comment on not needing the BOV? Automatic?

Sorry, not trying to stir the pot, just curious because I thought I understood turbos fairly well.

Oh...I know, I know....pick me! Pick me! Okay, who does that?...um..okay I know this one....hold on a second...I knew it a minute ago...oh yeah...oh wait a minute...It's Dean!!!

I am running an F23. I wouldnt bother with the BOV if it was an auto though. That would be the only way I'd agree with DH on this one.


LOL @ JR

Well that sucks. You were just 30 min away. You have been there since 3am? Holy cow! Thats a small airport to be stuck there that long!

Any more pics? Is it running yet?
I got my AN fittings from a custom truck hot rod shop. I was getting them from ebay but just stopped by the shop to browse and what do you know. They were a good price and I got them the next day.

Hell no its not running. I am not going to even bother posting any more of the "should be running at the end of the day/week" comments at this point. I have been hearing that for far too long. I'll update when I get pics. Trust me, if it were running, I'd post about it.

Oil cooler installed.

I'll be changing out those cheap hoses and hose clamps with proper line and AN fittings. Definitely don't want to risk a leak with the engines lifeblood!

Slammed like a lowrider !?!
