Default The Snowball Effect is Done!

named for the snowball effect because it started as somehting small and turned into this.
now the pics dont quite do it justice, cause it wasnt buffed out when this were taken, it is much shinyer now











Outside -
Championship white - painted the engine bay and all of the interior too
shaved moldings, trunk keyhole, windshield squirters and emblems
painted the mirrors and door handles
rocking on some painted del sol rims - shitty tires on the rear, bfg drag radials for the street, M&H slicks for track - 14's give such a nice ride
some minor bumper modifications

Inside -
8 pt rollbar
5 points
wideband and boost and oil pressure gauge
some seats and a dash
one whiney *** walbro

Suspension -
all polyurethane bushings everywhere
shitty coilovers
z10's new prototype traction bars (they rock!!!)

Engine -
d16z6
eagle h-beams
srp 9.1 pistons
jg head
- crower turbocam, oversized valves, 3 angle, p&p, aem cam gear, springs, retainers
t3/to4e 60 trim .48 ar hot side
ebay mani
3 in dp and exhaust
720cc inj
uberdata
apex bov
tial 35mm
big *** ic

got a 12.6 at 110 last week on 12psi. looking for 11's in a month or so

Are you blind or just plain retarded? Last time I checked sleepers didn't have FMICs the size of Las Vegas.

Yeah, your right. It's not exactly like you can hide it. My bad...by sleeper I meant no kit, corners, cf, crazy exaust, etc. etc. LOOKS clean and simple

looks very nice except that manifold. Looks like you have all brand name parts except that manifold. You're going to have to keep rebracing it and dealing with cracks. have fun. I destroyed a brand new tial wastegate and some piping cause of that god damn manifold.

Default Re: (stock93cx)

thanks for the compliments everyone.
i dont quite understand the .:hack:. comment, but whatever.....
there is a shop that just opened up round here with a dyno that i'll be going too once i get it street tuned etc. still makin my bumper black
there was a stock b18b turbo in it last year, but i wanted to show the sohc some love.
ya i know the mani is ****, but i'll be holding up the whole turbo with a brace from teh motor mount here soon, so im no too worried. i am quite broke now, so that's why i went cheap, but it works quite well, i get no spiking etc. i will be forced to sell it some the end of summer time or soemthing cause of all the debt. sure is fun though
and i'll be hitting 11's soon - i didnt spend all those hours welding a rollbar in there for nothing!

thanks again
