The one thing I hate about purpul is that it's blue in some pictures and purpul in another :sadwavy: #PurpulProblems :rotfl:
Looks great man, can't wait to see everything back together. Are you doing under the hood as well? If not, I would suggest doing so. It makes the look THAT much better :thumb:
I wish the DC5 bay was that easy to shave and fill
Ill never do it again! haha i lost my finger prints in the process. arrggg.Although, once its done and painted, it makes a big difference and well worth it :)Quote:

started the head tonight. Hit a problem with one of the keepers not machined right from supertech. They are sending me another set.

Bottom end is being sent to machine shop to make sure everything is fine before the rings are installed and i get a complete motor again. I can't wait to drive it again. Who knows, im venturing the idea to post it for sale once its completed.
Looks awesome, glad SuperTech is doing right by you. Also, i was talking about the pictures. Look at the pics you posted of the bay, some look blue and some look purpul. #PurpulProblems <3
Wow! All this work just to sell it?! That would suck, but if you sold it what would you get as a replacement?

Ah ok i get what you mean now ;) Once the motor is in and everythign back together, it should look pretty damn good. Lets just hope the flat valves, meth kit and few other goodies push it over 500whp on same boost level.
I dealt with Norris proyontoo Racing with all my supertech products. He's been hands down one of the best companies ive dealt with.
Ya im thinking about it. Ive always wanted to get into something little comfier and higher class.... BMW e46 m3. Theres been quite a few ive found lately, that if i didnt have my car in pieces, we'd of gone and bought one. Here's the one i saw in ohio for sale. 20k obo

GF doesnt want me to sell the car and just pick one up this summer. My car doesnt owe me nothing, everythings paid for (which is a bonus)
Beemer looks nice, but it's an entirely different care. Much more torque, more of a racecar feel with RWD, and a HPF turbo kit is real pricey. Just sayin :vtec: And not having to make payments is a big part as well, IMO the teg is unique and well-built. I say stick with it, but that's just my :2c:Quote:

And Norris is definitely a great dude to deal with, I bought a wastegate from him and he has great customer service, as he is a customer himself.

I raised the compression this time from my old 9.8cp, also went from a 2 1/4 exaust to a 3". Not to mention running 13-14 degrees timing on 91 and this can now be tweaked some more with meth :) Im pretty confident 18psi should be close to 480-500 this time around. It's also going to be tuned on the dyno, not street tuned like last summer. Dont forget flux capacitor haha, thats another 10
Oh, ok. Well that's awesome then! I thought you had stock internals before hand.
