Yup. New turbo's along with 1.2 Bar of Boost makes for a lot of fun. 1.4 on race gas. :)

Stock Internals. Been raced hard for a good 5K miles with no problems. If i do blow it.. I'll have it fully built.

The car was Dyno tuned with an 11:1 A/F from 5000rpm+ on 91 and Race gas Tunes. I imagine i could be in the 10's if i leaned it out but it's not worth it. Ported heads with new Cams will get me into the 10's..... I Hope. :)

All in all i'm quite satisfied. Idles exactly like stock and no one has a clue until they see it at the track.

It was just a matter of time before a bunch of us started to break the cars.

Last year, 10's where the majic number for everyone to shoot for. Now with a bunch of us with built motors, heads & cams 9's are the goal for some.

I just wll be content with soild 10's at the track and an easy low 11 for street use. I don't plan on boosting past 18 on the track or 16 on the street.

Man Sell it on Ebay when your ready to sale it. People love moded cars on there that means they don't have to do the work. I saw 300zx twin turbos wit over 100000mile on them I'm one of them and sold it for more than it was worth because it was heavy moded. You have to give a good sale pitch.

Don't plan on selling this for a long time. I'll be deeper in this than the past few cars. Bolt-ons is one thing. I cleaned off all the bolt-ons on my previous vehicles and made back prettty close what I put in. But this, is a different situation. This car will be in my garage for a long time!!!!!

I understand.

Keep us informed!!! I will be upgrading to a new blower soon and need to know as much as possible.


I'll be putting the Whipple in the next few months on again. I'm going to break the engine in with the Eaton and slowly up the boost to the 15-17# level. Then just swap the Whipple on. It's just to make it a nice transition.

This project has taken away from my home improvements!!!!! I'm glad I don't have a wife to answer to. I better get this car straightned out before I end up like my brother who just got engaged.

His Fiance told him this, "If you want the Z-06, you better get it now becuase you'll be driving a mini-van in 2 years!!!!"

I was looking for them. At first I recieved a set of Clevitte 77 (Tri-metal) bearings for the rods, which is what I wanted. Then I recieved a set of Clevitte 77 bearings for the mains. It turned out that they were the replacement aluminum faced ones. The machine shop didn't want to use them. He got a set of tri-metal Clevitte 77 bearings. I mentioned the Federal Moguls to him and he knew about them. But the block needed to be put back together.
