I went nuts with the coatings, but my motor is pretty tough.

I got a stock fpr for now. Not really the route I want to go, but I got to get her back on the road. (when they sit, things magically break).

So she'll be back on the road this week, and back to tuning.

i used to have probe wheels on my turbo II

stylEmon 09-26-2008 12:22 PM

I'm sorry.
Mine are not probe wheels on the front. They are from a protege or something...

Sweet setup man! I been following your build thread on 7club for a while. I kinda wished I got my motor studded instead of being pinned, but only time will tell if I'll even care when shes running. Good job with everything!

stylEmon 10-12-2008 09:48 PM

thanks. Yours looks pretty nice. Very clean and well done. I am a sucker for sleepers.
I've always wanted to go with the REW upper intake... I hate the FCs twisted upper intake.

There are a few things I wish I would've done now (S5 motor for rear plate, REW intake manifolds, light flywheel) but mine screams when I get on it so can't really complain.

rotorhead87 10-13-2008 07:15 AM

I bet if you did switch over to a REW manifold and port matched it I would not be surprised if you pick up extra HP for your beast. It really helps the air flow smoothly go into the ports with the least resistance. I guess in the S5, S4 UIM the air gets crammed into the manifold, then the air has to make a climb up the manifolds ports. lol I hope that makes any sense, but I have no hate towards any rotary setups as long as she screams...right. I just happened to be a die-hard 13B-RE loyalist.

stylEmon 10-13-2008 09:39 AM

i agree completely. That is the most efficient 13b intake set up. I've seen back to back dynos with an S5 UIM then a RE UIM. There was a decent amount of high end torque added with the RE.

well, I got the new pump.
Went to take the old one out and the tank is rusted!
Freaking sucks man, this will be the third tank for my FC....

stylEmon 10-29-2008 01:30 PM

I went to a local paint supply store and got this Fuel Tank Repair kit from POR15.
I am NOT going through another tank!!

^ POR is great - I'm using it on my FC right now for undercoating.

stylEmon 10-30-2008 03:51 PM

OMG that was hard work...
I had to vigorously shake a 15 gallon tank for 20 minutes, THREE times!!!
I'm in pain.

I still have to apply the sealer, but all I need to do with that is roll it around.

What's the best way to make your Throttle cable mod?
