Nice!! Keep us updated, I'd love to see how your setup does. Did you get the valves back?

Valves back? ;) always had them. it was the keepers, one was machined wrong. I got another and its all good to go.
Its been a slow process, and i havent worked on it much. But its been assembled and i was test fitting some push lock fittings on the manifold.

I just need a crank seal and the motor is ready to be put back in. I cannot wait to hear the turbo spool again...
That looks awesome dude, glad you got the keepers and everything is practically ready to go. Make sure you take a video and shout out to boostedk20 to show some love for the forum!
will do! hopefully in the next two weeks ill get a "re first start up video" :) I want to hear that whistle again.

picture isnt up to date. everythings bolted in now and it started on the second try. TDC sensor wasnt plugged in on first try :P it was 1am by this time so i didnt get time to adjust fuel pressure but no vaccum leaks, pures like a kitten, just a little rich (base fuel rpessure was 63)
Looks great, post up a video! As for tuning, you should look into having VitViper from E-Tunez tune your setup on the dyno. He's insane with tuning, best person yet hands down.Quote:
