I need another boosted LSX, bad. I had to do a double take when I saw pictures of my car up there, lol. Don't change from the WS.6 hood, ever.

Good build man.

Well, I am pulling the Wilwood brake kit and going with a little bit different setup. So whoever is looking for a nice new Wilwood kit its in the classified section. More info to come on the build.

Looking good. I'm doing the same thing... excepting I'm going straight for the 370. Not going to mess around with my stock motor. I'd rather sell it and put that towards my 370 than blow it up! Good luck with it!

Why sell it? Would the wheels not clear?

well i havent updated this thread for some time. I had some custom piping made for the setup with some powder coating and ceramic coating the headers along with buying a posi to strengthen my rearend a little bit so it can hold the power until I go with a moser next year. The car will be on the dyno tuesday and then hopefully picking up the car friday. heres a few more teaser pics.

Nice build man, I wish I knew this was up here a couple weeks back. i was at straightline getting a dyno tune. BTW, I put down 335whp-350ft/tq on that same dyno so your car is doing good for that initial baseline. See the mods in my sig to get an idea of what suspension to think about. I did the suspension up front before I get a D1 for this winters project. I'd love to see the car once you are done with it as it is damn near exactly what I'm going to do. D1 with 8psi and hope the trans and rear end last a little bit before getting a moser and FLT built A4. I'd imagine you are local to straightline. Are you getting any gauges? I've been thinking about at least getting a vac/boost gauge and trans temp. Where do you hale from? I'm out of Joliet/Shorewood area.

Yeah, I am local. Downers grove/Woodridge area so it is literally a 20 min drive and im there. Straightline has awesome workers there and they keep me up to date with everything that is going on and the prices are pretty darn good as well compared to the other local shops I checked out. Next year I will be going back to them to start the work on a rearend/trans along with a nice engine build to put this thing moving out along with a nice show setup. I need some gauges but I have no idea which i want yet.. so I will just do some more research until then.

results?

The nice thing about straightline is that they were telling me that they can get a trans from RPM ahead of time and then just send your trans back as the core after the install instead of vice versa and having to have your car sit on a lift for a couple week. Kinda nice that way. As for gauges, I'm not sure myself. I'm definitly getting a trans temp gauge, vac/boost gauge, and fuel pressure. Alot of people say get a wideband, but what good is it if you get a quality tune and not changing that?!? I guess the same can be said about the boost gauge, but it's nice to visually see if you are losing boost in case a leak occurs. I kinda wish there were a sleak solution like the boost gauge I have in my 3er. The sleakest I could find for the T/A is in the AC vents, but I don't want to plug them all up.

Get a wideband!!!!...I've leaned out a couple times and its probably saved my ***. It was all silly **** that I fixed on the side of the road too. Get a wideband and atleast a fuel pressure gauge. I run a 3 gauge piller and it has boost, fuel pressure, and a wideband. Dont skimp here because it could save your *** lol

willizm

iTrader: (10)

I'll probably end up getting one just to be safe. Like you said, if it saves your *** once then it is worth the hassle. I'll probably get the three pill with boost, wideband, fuel pressure. I'm going to mount the trans temp in the vent left of the steering wheel. If you don't mind me asking, what was your ratio when you were leaning out and at what RPM were you seeing it lean out at?

Straightline just called, the car is on the dyno now and I will keep everyone updated on how it went.

i really want to follow this build, since this is the exact thing i am looking at doing.

Why you going with the P and not the D ? are you using stock bottom end and valvetrain?

willizm

iTrader: (10)

I think he is going with a D.

6psi 490rwhp 470tq at 5900 rpm!! if I got new valve springs it would eliminate the valve float and I would be at about 525rwhp at 6300ish rpm. So i am verrrryyyy pleased!

and it is the D1SC. :p

Nice numbers!...i believe when i looked i was above 14.4 and got out of quick

well I haven't updated this thread in awhile.... So I took the car to the track about 5 or so months back just to see what it can do first time out. well i hit 12.6 @119, shitty 60 ft spinning off the start and snapping the procharger belt before the end of the quarter. So this thing has a lot in it. Straightline has had the car for the past few months, had a new bracket put on for the belt and a new corsa muffler since my other one had a weld break since it was from 02.. haha. Now I'm planning a rearend and trans and some valve springs should be a nice increase on that as well.
