Very nice looking car and setup If you dont mind how long did this build take from start to finish?

cubish

well the body shop has had the car for like 4 months...motor work and whatnot has been done in the past 2 weeks

I take it you guys modified the wastegate placement?
Looks clean! Good luck!

self_made

dont think there will be creeping issues with the wastgate like that?

My first though. In for more pics...

cubish

i feel the same way, but the customer didnt want to cut his manifold to move the flange...and this was the only way it would work with how he wanted it...
its not my personal car so i dont get the last say...
im a big believer in designing a manifold where flow goes strait to the wastegate

TurboJesse

are you gonna brace the wastegate?

cubish

yeah.. i already made a brace that goes from the wastegate to the a/c bracket(not pictured)...i did it just incase..the piping is pretty thick.. i dont think it would ever crack though

Fred, who is tuning this car?

dont most peakboost, fullrace...yadda yadda.. have the wastegate placement right in front? It has a halfsize radiator.. looks like its under the radator support.. y move it in the first place?

Yes they do. Cosmetic wise this one looks cool... but functionality wise it's bad news.

cubish

obviously if the wastegate fit in the front there would be no reason to move it...
the manifold had a flange for a smaller 35/38mm wastegate...he is running a racegate which runs a bigger flange..like i said above he didnt want to cut the manifold...

SYD-- either frank smith or lance ho lung are going to tune the car

Gen I or Gen II?

cubish

He is going to beg for your CTR camshafts after the dyno session(s). I can't see. Does he have adjustable cam gears?

cubish

yeah he has skunk gears

Hope his tuner uses them. He is going to need them Keep us updated

cubish

will do... his problem is he reads too much online and uses whatever parts he sees online... its not my car so all i can do is just tell him what i think..its all up too him. it should still make descent power considering the size of the motor and turbo...

I hear you. A lot of people are like that. That's what I am interested in. 84mm, head work and a good size turbo. I have already seen these cams in an 81.50mm GSR with a T4 GT35RLS

cubish

what kind of #'s did it put out

cubish

a couple updated pics



car should be done by the weekend.. need to finish up some wiring, exhaust, etc..

Looking great
