Sloppy Mechanics

Pullied up my g8 today

installed the 70lb injectors the other day from Rich at PMFL, waiting on the pulley, he suggested i order a 3.1 to stay safe, totalling 9psi up top, and adding about 30rwhp, he was totally right btw. listen to the man when he speaks, haha.

injectors and pulley were easy to swap, results were amazing.

Area P Slip on for the Bking

installed an Area P slip on exhaust friday for the bking. I love it, i hope to tune the King the same day i tune the busa.

coreys truck is done

one weekend to turbo the silverado. we are maniacs.

hotside and cold side done 12 hour day

im pretty happy with the results for tonight.

mounting the intercooler and brain storming

just eyeballing some stuff today, and thinking about where to mount the intercooler...

lots of little things today...

gutted the thermostat, installed the new chain and sprockets (16/43) bled the clutch, front and rear brakes, probably some other things im forgetting haha. overall im happy to have some live back in the levers on the bike, i just need to fill it with some coolant and i can do some burnouts!

first step for turbo fun

installed stock z06 valvesprings that coreys brother had laying around with 0 miles on them, eventually the truck will get a z06 cam to make some more power, here are some pics of the spring install early, we cranked to get it done so i didnt get any installed pics.

whack shack nova motor install today

helped ryan install his motor today, gunna get some highspeed install video of it later!

2010 Turbo rusty build, running!

just got it fired up tonight.

lots of work on the turbo rusty tonight

trans mount fabbed and finished, painted installed, driveshaft in, trans cooler, exhaust modded but might not be enough, more stuff to do, heres some pics.

g8 highspeed blower install footage

not as good as i would have hoped, yeah well. here it is anyway haha

th400 installed tonight

well, it was time to drop in the pig, trans fits in great with the drop box, that was a big concern, since we just measured and molded that box the way we wanted to, and hoped to god the trans wouldnt hit it. lol.

ryan had pre wired and relayed everything in the cab before he buttoned it up, so all the wires are down below already and just need to be connected, the shifter linkage is working great, need a nut to hold the arm to the trans, and then do some final adjustment when its running, but thats ready to go now too.

all the measurements are in, ryan is dropping off the driveshaft tomorrow at the drive shaft shop, its really fucking close actually, it might need to be lengthened up a little bit. but holy shit its close.

lots of things to finish up with the motor, plugging shit in, intake, piping, rad, pulleys, all little nit picky shit.

hes going to build a crossmember for the trans tomorrow that clears the exhaust, and fuck around.

here are the pics from tonight, im really surprised with how well everything fit, like a glove, easier to install than the 5spd, and i could not believe how light the flexplate and converter were, the flexplate was like 1lb at most and the converter even filled was like 8lbs.

dyno charts for the TVS1900

here are two dyno plots, the first is just the last safe pull with the TVS blower installed.

this one shows

*red* stock 87 octane,

*green* tuned93 octane, and

*blue* TVS1900 on 5psi

Blower Installed!

well, we started about 7something, and were totally done around 230, pretty quick, forgot to get some extra coolant for the car and the blower once installed so had to run out and get that after everything was done. all in all, extremely pleased with the kit, it looks stock, and performs amazing, my car is so quiet and quick, its a totally different animal.

we loaded a magnacharger tune in hybrid with my other tune, and its nice and safe. till we can get a custom tune in, possibly tonight, we will see, but its totally safe for now.

and now for some installed pics!

Got my magnacharger today in the mail!

pics!

final nitrous kit install pics on the subaru

well here it is, in all its shitty glory, what a nice install, i cant wait to angle that nozzle to one side of the motor with 200hp jetting and splatte this thing, i hope it comes apart like a 5.0.

taking out the nitrous subaru for a test spin

just taking the car out around the block to make sure all the nitrous stuff is working ok, 60hp shot for now.

started on the nitrous kit in the subaru

started with the nitrous kit on the subaru tonight, gotta tee off the stock fuel line, or do a stand alone, not sure what i want to do yet. probably T off the stock line for now.
