well boys...i just dropped my A6 off at the machine shop to get built. the only down side is that they are so backed up it will take about 3 weeks. but i dont care caused that gives me more time to get money. this bad boy will be in and broken by the 4th of july and the turbo kit goes on before july 31st cause theres a car show i wanna bring it to. but as soon as everything is done ill get pics and ---- for ya to drool over!!

 

sounds good. how much did that drop you?

 

a little under 2 grand

 

2 grand

holy ----

 

piston rods, arp head studs, arp rod bolts, cleaning assembling, rebiulding the head, gaskets, belts, misc stuff. its about right. i bet its around 1800 when all said and done

 

2 grand...why didnt you buy a JDM swap? 30K miles...and then you couldve bought some eagle rods or something...2 grand...sounds like you will have a nice motor, but for grand....

 

cause everyone has b16s and ----...i wanna see what i can do with the SOHC non vtec motor. ive been planning on doing htis for a long time and i fianlly got all the funds to do it. plus i got the a6 for 100 bux too. im looking around 275whp on 18psi when all is said and done

 

and you didnt have it sleeved? your motor should handle 18psi, but you shouldve gotten it sleeved. BTW, 18psi, what are you gonna use for traction control? im not 'dis'in the set-up, just courious.

 

my built d ran me in the area of 1700

 

a huge turbo. lag is my traction control
