Default finally started working on my d1 ws6

It's burning through the converter.Right now the car goes 110mph at 6800rpm due to converter slip, need a tighter/better one soon!

But with 4.25 pullie it put out 10-12psi, made 525/442

Vrx5 236/238 601 605 113
Hooker 1 3/4 headers magnaflow catback
Ls6 intake
Tr6s
Msd wires
Moser 12 bolt 3.73 gears
Performabuilt 4k stall
Ttp stage 3 60e




picked up my d1 kit used for 3600 from a member on here, been about 2months? or so but starting to make way with the install




gonna try an figure a way to mount my fogs still


an also doing a stand up radiator,like this fourm member did


this is all thats done in a night(12am-1am) an half days of work.

hoping to just grab a 4.38 pulley this week, radiator an other small stuff.

i know racetronix has a pressure switch, but where can i get the rest i need?

Would it be possible to run a radiator like on the new model stuff that doesn't have a cap and pulls water from the expansion tank? Just thinking that would help make the install that much neater.

I got my radiator in thursday, started cutting on friday. now i need to make brackets to hold it in place.


Kenne bell saying its a common thing for people to delete the switch an dial, so thats good.


Now for the inlet hat, i saw that the silicone 90* are collapsing, what if i did 4" cupling to 4" metal 90 then big k&n? Think thatll work?

A quick question on your air filter placement.... Would it be better to rotate the inlet 180 degrees so the filter points to the driver's side? As it sits now, you're going to be drawing in the warm air coming off the intercooler

Great job though. I'm about to do the same thing on my car and your pics are quite helpful.
