Default Turbotime Winter Rebuild07!! Just need a lil more juice.. B17 FTW

Well I crashed my car a few weeks ago forcing me to purchase another car but all is not lost! I had liability only so I was pretty much screwed on repairs so i picked this up to get me around in the meantime:


cheap, yes. ugly, yes. slow, ohhh yes.

<FONT SIZE="2">theproject car!</FONT>
start:


low(14psi)/high(17psi) boost


had an accident


BUT it also leaves me time and $$ to upgrade and fix the other car. So here we go!

Old Setup 305whp@17psi:
- t3/t04b .63 a/r
- 3" Custom downpipe
- Revhard Manifold
- Wiseco 9:1 on Crower Rods stock sleeved 81.5mm B17A1
- 00 CTR Cams w/ Omni spring and retainers
- 3" Kteller Exhaust
- 780cc precision injectors
- Hondata s200b w/3step
- back of block catchcan

planned NEW Setup (??whp@??psi):
- CCFAB Corey Topmount
- CCFAB Corey 3" downpipe
- garrett t3/t04e 60 trim/.63ar
- Chrome Pro
- VictorX
- Valve cover catchcan
- Cylinder head "refreshed" (hottanked, new seals, check everything is straight, 3angle)

Hoping for 400+whp on pump gas with a quick spool. Oh and I have some exterior upgrades planned too but thats a surprise! Well see... here are pics from the start!
--------------------------------------
First we gotta clear out all this old crap!


comin along...


much better!


more pics soon!

Pulled the head off today, just to find the goddamn sleeves were scarred up from what is TBD. Its either incorrect p/w clearance or too rich of a basemap when i first started the engine. Either way, im going to have to pull the pistons to check the clearances and the block will definitely need a hone as well

nice but, get some real jack stands. Cinder blocks are weak esp that you have the holes facing out. (look how they use them in building a house.)

damn I hear you about that accident thing, I messed my car up too recently on only liability better than having NO insurance though and getting a fat *** fine.

Looks like you're bouncing back nicely though, sounds like it's gonna be a beast.

So i got the frame straight enough to at least bolt up the new rad support, gave it a test fit today.... fit pretty well still need to tweak the frame a lil; my roomate chris in the background swapping in a new tranny on his car





Also wire up my new gauges, wiring was A BITCH, this is what i started with:



But i managed to clean it up and ended up here:







Also decided to start cleaning up the bay, relocating the battery, removed more p/s and a/c stuff, removed window wash resevoir too, minor wire tucking:









And heres where i am at the end of today:



gotta love the weekend!
