the car is coming back to the garage from the body shop hopefully on thursday night, and I figure we will have it wired back up, the seats in, the battery box in and the dash back in by the end of the weekend. Then we have to wait for the motor, which should be done this week. I would say in about a month the car should be up and going.

 

very nice i can't wait to see the finished product, and the dyno results of the new motor

thanksss

 

 

looking sharp

 

looks great i have the same set up (sc61,mini-me,n tial

 

your going to have trouble with that wg. depending on how much you boost or hp plan on making.

 

^ why's that? im running a 38mm tial on my a/c mini me also

 

in some cases it my work for some, but alot of times you will have spiking issues. after your motor is fully tuned and ready to go i would not want to be thinking of the wg all the time.........

You may or may not have any problems it really varies for all setups. Some cars have had problems keeping boost low in the first few gears due to one of many things... wastegate size, turbo size, backpressure, and wastegate placement. Here is a thread i made recently.

After talking to a few people at the last NOPI race I attended, I decided to sell my 38 tial and went ahead and got the Turbosmart 48mm gate. I as well have the Mini-me and GT35E/t4. Id rather go big from the start lol.
