I figured I might as well start a project thread for my sequential twin turbo car, since I'm actually doing things to it nowadays.
The new motor is: 2.3 6-bolt stroker with Manley rods, Ross 9:1 pistons, and squirters deleted Mitsu metal HG Creebonics mildly ported head with 1mm oversized Ferrara valves, Si single springs and retainers Crower 64415 cams (old version with wimpy exhaust cam, advertised as 292/288, more like a 280/268 in todays terms) JMF race version SMIM Q45 90mm throttle body ugly 2G exman with 60mm wastegates welded on twin sequential-parallel EVO3 16g's Fuel system is: 850cc FIC injectors Walbro 190 intank feeding a Bosch inline hatchmounted Coolingmist methanol injection Engine management: Eprom ECU with Ostrich Eprom emulator and Tuner Pro RT Innovate LM-1 wideband MAF Translator Gen2 with wideband AFR tracking Transmission/clutch: Was stock with Spec stage 3. Who knows what's next. I'm looking for about 550-600whp with a powerband of 3k to 9k rpm. With the heavily cammed stroker motor, the Evo3 hits like a sledgehammer around 3100. I think with stock cams/intake manifold it'd spool a lot earlier, but 3100 is good enough. It's pretty quick even at 15psi. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The front fascia is just a rough cut now, I'm planning on fiberglassing, ducting, and smoothing everything out. ![]() Unfortunately, the transmission wasn't too pleased with the newfound torque output: I think this happened first. ![]() And caused this from a lack of fluid. ![]() I'm thinking I'll probably go with twin disk clutch and a transmission with an EVO 3 double synchro "close ratio" gearset in it. I doubt the Spec 3 would have held up for very long anyway. -------------------- Eric Wort

QUOTE (awd4kicks @ Jun 2 2007, 04:57 AM) On a side note do you know where we can get the EVO 3 gear set. I want to rebuild my transmission with the same set. I believe www.jackstransmissions.com will sell just the parts you want, the EVO gears are about $200 a piece though. I think swapping to an EVO first gear may require some extra work, but I'm not 100% on that. I may just run stock 1,2, and 5 with EVO 3 and 4, which is basically what a Stage 4 Shep trans is. Right now I'm eyeing Jack's premium rebuild with a pair of AN-8 fittings TIGged on for a tranny cooler. For the clutch I'm thinking a Powertrain Technologies twin disk. -------------------- Eric Wort
