New build but getting distracted
I've been investing in my new build and actually I'm close to completion.
New build consists of: 99 Ls shortblock resleeved with "new big sleeves" to 83mm by Benson Machine, step deck, Ls crank balanced and polished, Manley turbo tuff rods, CP 83mm 9:1 pistons, ACL Bearings, AEBS main studs and head studs, assembled by no other than Dan Benson himself, Fluidampr harmonic dampener (thanks to Arturbo!) , new remote oil filter setup, new oil filter setup, Endyne catch can setup, b17a head by Rick Kemp (first owner of Portflow, recommended by Dan Benson) p & p, special radius and angles on valve seats, Supertech coated valves, Eibach springs, CTR intake camshaft, Gsr exhaust camshaft, new exhaust setup consists of 3" kteller vbanded in 5 places with Borla ss 3" exhaust and carsound 3" cat
Benson sleeved and assembled ls block with "new big sleeves":
Toyosupr T4 equal length manifold on T4 GT35R w/ vband
New oil filter setup:
Engine bay with old Golden Eagle block:
I'm just waiting for the head to be finished but my attention has been going towards my new baby:
I've already changed the stock exhaust to 3" Blitz Nur spec touring catback exhaust, installed MBC, Blitz DCII boost guage.

good luck with that new baby. You can't add a thing to the STI without it giving you a problem. Been working my friend's STI. He put a Booster controller and it would spike. turns out that he will need to get another turbo because the stock one needs to be ported or replaced in order to controll the boost. then we put a delete pipe with not cat, give me varied boost in different gears. he changed his intercooler to a Perrins brand front mount and he can't get full boost in 3rd gear. so goodluck. i'ld just leave it stock.

i am going to have to disagree on that one...i have seen many STI's that just have a boost contoller and upped the boost and they run like champs..
