Default T6: S484 Alum 346 Build Thread

I figured it was time to start a build thread. We will be cranking up the new setup this weekend, so I figured I would post the new setup and pictures.

Previously, car had a SBE ls1, ls6 cam, e85, kytp kit with pt7675. We went a best of 10.20 off the footbrake with zero boost. Just loading the converter and letting it eat. Car is backed with a built th400 and s60.

New setup has taken a little over a year to build.

BTR Springs
10:1 compression
BTR/Lil john stg 3 cam
ls9 head gaskets
Stock rockers with trunion upgrade
Schumann oil pump/pick up
Improved Racing Baffle
Katech c5r timing chain
Moroso Valve covers
LS6 intake
Stock throttle body

Trans:
Built th400 w/pro brake
JW Bellhousing
Rmvb
Deep pan
Kevlar Blanket
Circle D custom converter/flywheel

Fuel:
In tank:
Walbro 255 with hotwire kit
External:
Magnafuel 4303 on 1lb hobbs switch (will have a manual override switch in a few weeks)
Feed: 8 an fittings/hose Y to 10 an to front of the car.
Return: 8 an
Holley fuel rails
ID2000 injectors
Magnafuel boost reference regulator
e85

Turbo/kit:
Huron Speed t6 kit
BorgWarner s484 t6 (doesn't actually fit with the turbo kit. Had to modify the cold side a little)
Tial Blowoff and twin wastegates
3.5 inch cold side
5 inch downpipe

Thanks. I had a pt7675 on my old setup. Ran great would have easily ran in the 9s if I could have built some boost at the line. It was originally a 6 speed also. Street tires were scary. I am sure yours runs every well!

Car cranked up about a week ago. Here are a few pics if the engine bay finished. Got to finish up the front bumper and a few other small items.

Got the aero catch hood pins mounted. Not extremely happy with the brackets/pins, but the install came out good.

Awesome build! Very nice work and attention to detail in all areas

To clear up any confusion, the T6 kit is made to fit BW T6 turbos with the V1 race cover. Mods will have to be done as shown here if you have the V2 race cover which is bulkier to fit inside the frame rail :thumbs:

Thanks again, looking forward for more results!

Jon
