Hey guys, I figured i try to start and keep up on this thread to show everyone what ive been working/spending my money on. Here is a quick rundown on the story and plans for the car.
Its an 02GT 5speed that i have had since 2006 and it was all stock with some weld in flowmasters. I went to the track and went 14.1@99mph and thought it was the coolest thing ever. Then i met kurgan and thats when shit happened. First, i bought a vortech kit, supporting mods, and meth kit. The car then was all stock minus the vortech kit and went 12.8@111.mph. Then i changed the clutch, had the rearend built, got some tires, got a short throw shifter, and pullied the car for about 10psi and went consistant 12.0's. Then i sold the vortech kit and switched to a single hellion kit with a 62mm turbo and made 436hp/526tq and ran 11.40@122 with the clutch slipping and then fried the clutch later that night. I then decided to do a th400 swap to the car and ditch the 5 speed. I got a smoking deal on a th400 complete setup with billet reverse manual valvebody and transbrake and decided this was the route to go. I got the swap all done and get a retune and the car made 365hp/395tq. I waited to go the track because i needed new tires, but the car felt ALOT better and knew it would be faster. I finally decided and went to the track anyway to make some passes just practicing the launch on the transbrake. I couldnt build any boost without blowing the tires off so it was a waste. Only got 11.40's again. Finally, my friend let me borrow some slicks and i turned the boost up to 13psi and put a full tank of 110octane in and i went to the track and left on the transbrake and made it 3/4 track and blew the hell out of the stock motor. That was back in August of 2011. The car has been down since. Im just now getting motivation to work on it. The plans are here:
-built 03 cobra 4v (stock crank, stock rod, different pistons, head/main studs.
-stock 03 heads/cams
-01 cobra intake---might change my mind
-80lb inj.
-magnafuel ext. pump
--10feed -8 return, sumped tank
-precision 76 gts billet wheel turbo
-cg fabrications foward facing 4v kit, turbo headers/hotside with electric cutoff for downpipe
-custom turbo coldside
-battery relocation to the trunk
-aerospace street/strip 4piston brake kit for front/rear
-flaming river manual steering rack/shaft
-racekraft manual brake conversion
-10pt cage
-moser c-clip eliminators
-33 spline moser axles
-33 spline moser lightweight spool
-torque box lower/upper reinforcement
-paint whole underside with silver por-15
-line inside with dynamat to quiet the interior and redistribute the heat
-scottrod fab panels for engine bay sides. fill holes and smooth and repaint engine bay.
