that's a beautiful build!


maybe McMark can comment, but how does a big /4 like this compare
to a /6 with similar size/displacement? is there a cost advantage one vs the other? i am always curious why we do what we do,

one other question, how much boost are you running?

-love the sound of the tangerine system!

Thanks! If I could go back in time... knowing what I know now... I would have gone a different route. Something a bit more cost friendly!!

As for boost... I don't know at this point as I have not driven it yet. I have shift rod issues that I'm working out at the moment.

How did you know that was a tangerine system? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif)

Maybe its about time I change my signature... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

Low boost non- intercooled, or are you spraying water-meth into it?
I saw the vid real quick...must have missed the intercooler.

Nice...makes some wonder if it's worth it to install a 2.2 /2.4 -6 in one of these.
Did some one say 300 hp?

Very cool. Any projections on reliability or possible issues to look for in such a large displacement? I am assuming from your post that it was not cost friendly, but it is wicked cool and well done.

Turbos aside, the fours tend to have torque come on lower down, whereas the sixes make horsepower. Which is to say, fours can put you back in your seat, but taper off as RPM increases while sixes are a slower build and when they start to breathe, they really move. But all that is a massive generality.

Sorry. I don't have any pics of that. Jake did all the case clearancing work and decking.

I then had the case thermal coated. That nearly ended this project and cannot thank Mark enough for saving the build!!!! That's another story.....

Finally got the big bugs resolved. Now just a few little things. Here is a quick video. Please excuse the very poor quality. I was by myself. Next time I will recruit a dedicated camera person!!

Why don't you bring it to breakfast on the 25th? I think we'd all like to see it.

more boost,more power,more heat.
An eventual compromise limiting boost and inlet
air temps must be made before detonation sets in.
Those pistons look too nice to hole.

This is beautiful,polished,sounds very nice,malevolent even.
I recall a 914 turbo'ed with a 924 setup and raced.
Excellence did a few pages on the car,pointed me to my purchase.
Painted a 911 custom blue I liked.
Good read for the approach used.
