That looks like a pretty penny

Intercooler looks great! Wish I knew someone near me who could bend like that.

You need to up the ante up a bit.

In the aerospace world, all that titanium would have been considered scrap the second you tacked them without backing gas...

But...people go gaga over contaminated/rainbow Ti welds...

I see your point, but he's building a car (albeit high end) not a space ship.

What Precisely did you use to couple the motec with the factory ECU?

russianvr4

they're called wires

Markusirealius01

I see that. LOL I mean did you run into any issues or have any huge problems figuring out precisely how to wire in the M800?

russianvr4

i didnt wire it up. had a pro come in and do it. i could have figured it out myself but it would have taken way too much of my time and thats one commodity thats very rare to me.

Markusirealius01

Ahh Perfect... Could you possibly PM me his info or post it here. I am looking to hire some one to do the harness on my 06 and have had no luck up until now. : )

It's crazy how popular these cars are getting. I have billet fuel pump hangers designed for twin Walbro or Vane style pumps. Billet rails, Oil Filter relocation, etc. I haven't really decided how much of this stuff we want to sell seperatly but we spent so much time designing and building it seems silly not to. Wiring/tuning/etc.

If you are interested, shoot me a PM or email. Project is looking good so far!

update is a must

So you do half *** welding jobs when customers want proper welding?

I hope those turbochargers aren't going mounted to the frame in any way shape or form.

RickyLee53

I was just trying to stick up for him as little as everybody was nit picking.

But, did his customer say he wanted "propper" welding? I mean, there a bits we can all pick faults with, when you buy a lambo you can't specify I don't want any box section on my chassis, but its what you get. I'm sure the customer knew the level of work before he started and was happy with it. 90% of the time you go the extra mile with something and the customer just wants it to work and go fast.

Anything ever happen with the build?

Golfball

i think the cars back to stock and they just sold all the parts and went there own ways.

russianvr4

The owner decided to put it back to stock due to personal reasons. We didn't part ways in any way, still best friends and hang out all the time.

FabChild

That's cool, How has business been at your shop?

hootiehoo

i hope he paid for your time and materials....

also, ive taken apart older ferraris like a testarosa, and boxer....I wasnt impressed with any of the welding.

i was also at cape canavral and saw the welds on the space shuttle engines and welds from the apollo project.....honestly i thought people on the internet would blast the fabricator if they had the chance.....in reality, in real world applications, welds never look like you guys all expect them to.

i mean i always notice at ball parks when i see the welds holding up the entire stadium. very messy looking....sometimes you people expect perfection when it isnt even practical
