Haven't logged in for a while, changed a few things recently and have new 1/4mile numbers and a dyno sheet O0

Upped my turbo setup investment to $600 and installed a Walbro fuel pump and finally an intercooler and new BOV:

Pretty stoked with the results, still decided whether to find some used drag tires and see if I can break into the 13s....

sweet job man.

Re: Turbo Escort Wagon-junkyard dog
 

Damn that soild work. Hows the motor holding up?

Re: Turbo Escort Wagon-junkyard dog
 

Motor is holding up well, I've pounded on it for about 20k miles and the compression is still solid across the board :)

Re: Turbo Escort Wagon-junkyard dog
 

Nice job, I never could understand why people drag race wrx's and EVOs, I always cringe when the clutch gets dumped at 6k. I bet you could have taken him with a bit more traction.

Almost forgot, something to make me fit in a little better here (if that's possible)--my car is also part Honda now ;D

Little 1/2 radiator action. Needs a bigger fan and controller with a lower setpoint, but is working well so far...
