Project is not anywhere near over. Just need some extra cash this month. So i will not be throwing the kit on my stock spare motor for the time being. This is the only reason that the turbo is forsale. Im also going to go ahead and upgrade the turbo to a Gt4088r. Car should still be finished about the same time i had planed before. Maybe just a half a month later now. Not a big deal

I dont know man i would really have to go look at receipts. But if you add all the parts up that i listed in my setup it probably comes out to around 20 grand not sure really. To be honest with you i dont really even want to to know. Best part about it, I was able to do it paying all cash. Dont have to worry about paying the credit cards on this one. Its now more or less a debt free project so far.

I thought Mario said you were dealing with a T3 footprint, and now you're going to go for T4? Sounds like you're overcomplicating things. It's the T67/T3 you have now, yes? That's enough turbo to run 9's if you know what to do to the suspension. I've laid over 450 to the wheels with no wheelspin in 3rd on DOT tires. The two biggest secrets are compensating for weight transfer, and running something other than street tire compound BFGs.

You should quit waffling over parts selection and just put your car together and come up to A-ville or Hickory sometime. We'll break out the Black Car, and Wes' CRX should be back together in a month, and there's a certain 498 awhp Evo I'd take a great deal of pleasure in watching get smashed by multiple Hondas. The owner squeals and makes all sorts of interesting noises which some people mistake for valid excuses. There's also a very poor running supercharged Viper locally that the owner is all proud of, that it shouldn't take more than 350-375 to the wheels to stomp a mudhole in. Not walk past, stomp a mudhole in.

PS - Mario?



You drink the godawfulest swill ever. Fizzy yellow beer is disgusting.
