Damm that is impressive. Is his engine built to withstand the boost?

Not really, aftermarket pistons, stock crank, stock rods.

Because, the rest of the money was spent on carbon fibre. You know how much hosspowah that adds.

I know what you are saying, but honestly man, his car is bone stock on the outside. All the money went into motor, fuel delivery, and tuning.

He let me drive this thing today. I drove it slow at first, and then at a light he told me I can do whatever I wanted. We turned left, and I shifted from 1st to 2nd slowly the dropped it. Holy shit!! The car just got crazy ass hell and I could actually feel the power move the car to the left. I had to hold on to the wheel so tight. It was sweet. Then I was in forth at like 45mph went down to 3rd and punched it again. We were at 125 like it was nothing. Like I said im not big on ricers, but damn this thing was done right. Also I was wrong about the rods, they are aftermarket. There is a video of him racing a Z06 with a 200shot. I will post it as soon as he tells me the site.

so he just builds up his stock motor untill it blows over and over? *edit STI's are clean iam not really into imports but i like the idea of a powerful all wheel drive turbo car. [ January 29, 2006, 09:56 PM: Message edited by: PWR HNGRY 302 ]

Both the EVO's and STI's have a nice kick in the butt don't they. You can make them clean, just ditch the mondo wings first.

Well actually I was talking to him more about it today, and this motor should last a while. The first 2 motors were built buy some gay ass race shop "Quantum Racing" They did the valve train wrong both times, and blew it up after like 5 miles. The third one did not actually blow I guess. What happend was he took his air filter off to race someone, and something flew into the turbo and broke all of the blades off and it sucked all of the peices into the motor, and messed things up bad. He thinks this motor will last. He emailed me his dyno sheet, but im having trouble posting it. It wont let me upload it on here, or putfile, because they will not except the file type? Anyone know how to fix this?
