That is just motor assembly. Next we have headers, dual "Y" pipes, intakes to make. Then mapping. The car should be on the road around April/May.

You so crazy!

Buddy,

It hs been in the shop this time around since Feburary 2004. It's only been three years this month.


If you have seen the latest Excellence. Read the Mission CreepJoy article. What they have done to that motor doesn't come close to what we have done to ours.

mikerossi,

Just the motor, turbo's, headers, IC's etc. He is going to tune it on his engine dyno.

I just returned home (after a week back east) and called S Car Go Racing, all parts are now at S Car Go. All machine work is complete. The motor assembly has begun.

All these custom parts actually in one place? An amazing achievement in my eyes. I am so happy for you. Is the car ready for the engine?! Last I remember, you were adding width to KA. You get your front diff removed now? Any pics?

Buddy ............ I know it has been a very long time. However, when we look at what we have, compared to what is out there ...... the time line is understandable and it will be well worth the wait.

In the long run everyone will benefit. We have seen the benefits of free breathing heads. Just wait and see the advancements coming on the ecu's and cams. The reformed combustion chambers and ceramic coated chambers/exhaust ports are going to be real interesting as will the reduced crank journals and oval bearings. We also believe the GT35RS turbo's have some interesting advantages over the GT35R's.

Oh well, we'll see.

The impellars are a little larger and they are made of a very light weight material as compared to the GT35R turbo.
