when he was turbo

 

i love that color, any idea where i can find out what color it is?

 

its from the gt3RS

 

brutality

 

Ill be the first to say it. He ruined the looks of it.

 

Love it.

I think some black rpf1's would look better.

 

Love the rear end.

 

agreed...if only they came in 18x10 in a 4x100 bolt pattern...

 

i think, maybe more practice is needed.

 

 

Handles like a go-cart.

 

It looks weird to me too, I can't pinpoint what it is though.

 

any specs on the motor?

 

WOW!

 

I believe his setup is as follows...

*Sleeved, Decked and Align Bored at Darton (CA)
*Castillo's (CA) - knife edge and balance
*Exige S manifolds and associated bits
*Mahle 9.0:1
*MWR Springs
*MWR Valves
*MWR Moroso Oil Pan
*ACT HD Clutch
*Fidanza Flywheel
*ARP bolts/studs (all available)
*Crower Rods
*MWR rod and crank bearings
*OEM Thrust Bearings
*CircuitWorx Oilpump gear
*Smaay Return Fuel System
*New bar/plate Oil Cooler
*Misc A/N & BSP fittings for the oil & water lines
*Front heat exhanger in conjuction with the twin oil coolers
*custom turbo manifold
*GT35R Ball Bearing Turbocharger with a .84 trim and a 1.06 A/R
*modified VF MP62 supercharger kit
*air to water intercooler

That thing sounds like it's surging :/ Oh well. None-the-less that thing is straight brutal!

 

So damn cool

 

Very cool TC application. Can't say I like the way it looks. Just doesn't sit right.

 

The photographer of those pictures should not put his "copyright/watermark" on them as if someone would want to claim them as their own. They're awful.

 

This thread really needs some dyno graphs. It seems like going to a compound system just adds a lot of complexity and weight to a car that was designed around minimizing those two things.

 

they are pretty much the worst pictures

 

It should be dyno'd soon, its just street tuned atm. Complexity was what most people questioned when he started the project, but in the end it was all about making a lot more usable power. If he wanted simplicity he could've just left it stock.Judging just by how fast it came together (about 1 wk) it wasn't really all that complicated for him to add the supercharger to an existing turbo setup. Adding the supercharger makes the power delivery more linear than when he was just turbo. Weight isn't too much of an issue as the 500hp only has to carry 2156lbs (full tank).

 

We need some proper photos. The setup is crazy, but bar the diffuser, I'm not keen on anything from the door back.

 

I was thinking the same thing. Nice location and subject, horrid pictures.
