Well as some of you may know the car is down again like every winter for more upgrades. My 50 trim took a shit so I sold that and my old manifold setup. I picked up a PTE SC GT3561SP turbo from dejon in a .63 AR T3 housing. I'll be running the first ever prototype version of a ram horn style manifold made by Tim at Punishment racing. It will be made of 316ss jet hot coated. He's also building me a custom v band 02 housing setup. I'll update as I get more parts and get more ideas of things to do over the winter. I may end up putting in a 2nd inline walbro 255 fuel pump, but I am not sure yet.

That thing looks awesome. It slices, it dices, it makes thousands of Julian fries! Where can I get one?

I'd recomend Dejon. Dave Johnson is an awesome guy to deal with.

How are you going to do the v-band o2 with that 2' 1/2 4 bolt discharge? Garrett has a nice bell-mouth 3"in discharge t3 turbine housing that can come with a v-band flange. Just something to think about.

Either one of two ways. He either going to just weld on a vband to the 4 bolt discharge flange and I can bolt up that way, or I may have him just weld the 4 bolt flange w/ v band to the housing.

Well I packaged the turbo and everthing up today and I'll be shipping it off to Tim Croft over at Punishment tommorow and he'll start working on the setup.
I can't wait for this beast.

Well I finally found my camera so I took some pics of some new parts and whatnot. You'll see a Bosch 044 Fuel pump. I'll be running this inline with the walbro 255 in tank feeding this. I also picked up a set of Fidanza cam gears. I installed them early sunday morning. I'm starting off with the intake advanced 3* and the exhaust retarded 1*. I couldn't decide what color do get so I flipped a coin and it was tails, meaning I got one of each. Nice new shiny bolts too. It looks so empty with no turbo setup doesn't it! Soon baby soon. New 4 layer exhaust manifold gasket. This is exactly like the OEM evo part. Retail is about $15, my price is under $10 but $4 for shipping. If anyone needs on let me know. Brand new OEM lower timing cover. No broken tabs, rips, or wear holes from the AC belt. New Napa rad hose kit. The lower one needs replaced so I figured why not. They are ECR compliant and come with some special heat activated shrink clamps. As she sits right now.

Looks sweet Dano. How much was that timing belt cover and how much if you don't mind me asking. I'd like one of those too.
