Default 2nd Build 1st Thread Fully Built SOHC. EJ1 Wire Tucked

Well a little info on my car.

Its been turboed about a year now. I purchased the car about a year n 3 months ago... Began with a stock z6 10psi.. BoRRINGGG..... 220whp, and 207wtq.. Wanted more, so I fully built the single cam and put down 337whp and 245wtq on 17psi with an eBay 50 trim 63 ar with a 48 hotside. I am still looking for more this is why im starting a new build thread. I want 500whp by april 2010.. I already have the right base...
*BLOCK*
Weisco Pistons .020 over 8-5.1*
Eagle rods
Micropolished And Balanced Crank
ACL bearings
Arp Bolts and Studs
Cometic head gasket
*HEAD*
FULL Port and Polished
Ferrea stainless 1mm over Valves
Crower Springs/ Retainers
Comp Stage 3 cam

*Other Engine specs*
Blox Intake/ throttle body setup
880cc injectors
Ram horn manifold (debating on a topmount)
Current turbo is t3 t4 ebay 50 trim (prolly going to upgrade 35R)
Aem Cam gear
All OEM honda gaskets (except head gasket)
Hasport Motor mounts
Dual Core MONSTER radiator (factory fan & shroud)
-8 catch can set up
BIG full race back door intercooler
Open Dp (Daily Driven)
Aem Fuel Rail (soon to be adding aeromotive fp regulator and AN lines)
AFI charge piping with tial BOV
EBAY wastegate (soo to be tial waste gateddd)



Will be updating periodically as the build progresses... Parts arrive and time goes by... this is going to be a long process but I want to make this a fulllll start to finish product.. I want to have "almost" perfect....

FROM When I first bought the car.



When First Turboed








This was taken a few days ago when I decided I was going to do another build project.
