greg i dont like you, again..

 

lol @ overkill intake.

 

Not if the compressor housing is painted pink! lol

 

I hear overkill intake and this is what instantly comes to mind

 

personally I'd rather have CHRA water plumbing rather than oil plumbing

 

Been driving the car on the road for the past couple of days and feels great with throttle response, everything fits with no rubbing, I have only taken into very short and low psi ranges. Higher psi tuning and runs will continue afer Sevenstock. Coolant temperatures have gone down quite a bit at cruise. Partial throttle load seems to spool up very similar to my BNR/Greddy, once we get a chance to do some WOT runs it should be quite a bit of fun. Here's a picture from today.

 

Awesome man, can't wait to hear what you think after the power tuning is done. The coolant temp drops are likely due to the fact that you don't have a turbo heating up your coolant.

 

 

Greg, who do you have plan on tuning the car?

 

Brettspeed

 

Nice. Brett is an awesome dude and tuner.

 

so who is this going to be available from?

so excited! greg you are my idol, it will be an honor to ride alongside you to sevenstock! =]

 

Haha thanks Jess ! The drive up should be fun.

 

looks nice gregs!

 

Looking real nice! I like that motor mount bracket. The manifold looks nice and clean and that you actually have room to tighten the manifold nuts properly. Curious to see it installed with the plumbing. No clearance issues with the underbrace or the manifold to turbo v-band against the frame? I'm assuming not since you said everything fits without rubbing. Nice work man :-)

 

Thanks! Haven't heard much recently about your build. Hope all is well an your enjoying your beast

 

Thanks for the comments. Everything clears just fine including the underbrace. I do have the heat shield cut away in the footwell area and a bit of hammering from my previous greddy turbo kit which was required.

 

So are you tuning with accessport?

 

Yep

 

nothing really to report, it runs quite well. No problems either. just need bigger injectors

 

Wow Gregs, always been in love with your car.... I have been looking for a GReddy upgrade for a while now; and since nothing has popped up I've been considering an entirely new kit..... this is inspiring. PROPS!

 

Keeping her on the road is great thing! Glad to hear its working good.

 

Did you have to do any pounding on the passenger foot well to get that baby to fit or it cleared unmodified like my greddy does?
