I figured that I should probably throw up a members ride thread. Today is as good a day as any to start I guess.

I'll update this as I think of new stuff / come across old stuff!

We have been spending the last couple of months fitting a few new bits to my car. The only day that Troy (jetgsr) and I could work on it was Saturdays until about 4 hence the fairly long timeframe to make and fit this lot of bits! This lot of mods was done at Troy's house ( Thanks a million mate!! )

In a nutshell this is what was fitted...
Jmf Race intake manifold
S90 throttle body
ERL exhaust manifold
PTE6262 with .82 rear.
PTE 46mm wastegate
Magnus fuel rail
Modified 600 x 300 x 100mm intercooler ( fits nicely behind an uncut Jspec bar!)
New intercooler piping
New dump pipe
Battery relocated to area under the airfilter.
-12 catchcan setup fitted.

Hmmm, I think that's about it. I still need to fit the 1/2 inch fuel feed line, 044 pump and surge tank, roll cage etc etc etc!

Here are a few pics from the latest expedition into the wide world of car modification!

Test fitting the cooler



Battery in it's new home



Mock up of manifold and turbo



Dump on and wrapped



Various snap shots









I had to Slightly modify the front roll stopper for the -12 drain.



Intercooler, what intercooler

[EV0300]

that is a tasty looking set up, i like what you've done with the battery how did you go about doin that?
just very nice all up, any ideas on what your pulling power wise?

DSM as bro!
Great stuff Tim

[(2much)]

Tim, awesome!

Are you planning to build it once it goes...

I have been poking around ECMlink, and people seem to be pulling amazing ET's on stock stock engines.. i dont know how, but it's awesome.
I saw you mention in a post somewhere, that it doesn't get driven much, is it because it's too tempting, or has it just become too much of an effort to daily (easily, or close too it)

Like the pics, like the stealth. Looking forward to your new record.. and i'd like to see a log when you do it!!!

[bazeng]

Awesome Tim!!

I've been waiting for a members ride from you!!!!

10's just around the corner mate!!

[runuts]

Looks awesome mate!!! Can't wait to see it running

[3diamonds]

nice set up man.... looks tuff as.

keep us updated on the tune and new times you run...

[boost_lover]

nice work. I have heard good things about that turbo. Should scream.

Since its an effort as a daily, which fuel will you be running?

What power output are you aimimg for?

[bazeng]

What are the turbos rated at Tim?

[brisvr4]

Thanks for the kind words guys

Joey, it's not actually a daily so I run it on E85 from Racefuels.

The turbo is rated at 680hp but that is a conservative figure apparently.
The Evo crowd in the US love them!

[Qik-1.8]

looking good tim is it running yet well driving

[bazeng]

Big turbo!!!

[brisvr4]

Still dialing in the closed loop on it, I did give it a quick squirt at 16psi and ecmlink tells me that it is making about 310hp atws so 30+ will be FUN!

[robevo]

thats starting to get serious mate good to see.
when are you going to take it out?

[brisvr4]

Thanks Rob
I figured that seeing as it has 9 second suspension that I should make the rest of it a little faster

I was thinking of heading out on a Saturday night tnt in a couple of weeks.
We will have to catch up at some point too mate, I want to pick your brain about Andra safety stuff like scatter shields etc!

[crossam]

Looks the goods tim. Can't wait to see it hopefully I can get mine finished soon.

[UDLOOZ]

Nice exhaust manifold it looks really neat.. And ive been hearing a bit about them turbos id be interested to see how it goes.

[GSRSOL]

Very nice Timbo. That battery relocation is quite nifty.... !

[bazeng]

Batt relocation it coool but would suck on jump starts! Unless you have run remote post terminals somewhere?
