Greddy's build thread!! Better late than never!

3 minute(s) of a 223 minute read

It slowly climbed because that's what the car would do with the MBC turned down all the way, crept like a mofo. Since I ported the wastegate the boost no longer crept. We deleted the egr at the same the time. I've played with suspension settings and tire pressures to eliminate wheelspin and I decided to make as much midrange as possible without changing peak boost. We actually made 360wtq but decided to tune it down a bit for stock block "longevity"

As for the clutch I've decided to go with a DSM twin disk with a hydraulic TOB in the future, and the transmission is going to get built to TREs stage 2 rebuild in preparation for 400wtq in the not so distant future.

Car made 280/290 on 15psi.

if I actually shoot for 400wtq I might, the goal is more to have a bulletproof trans to hold the current setup, Im quite happy to throw another stock block in if this one blows. If I do build a motor it will stay SOHC and just be rods and pistons with an AMS moroso pan, I currently have a custom baffled stock evo pan but I like the extra oil capacity of the moroso pan. I also have a spare head laying around so I might have it gone through and ported and maybe do valvesprings and retainers and rev it to 7000. Again, all potential future outcomes but at this point the car is great the way it is and I have no complaints with the exception of the annual clutch fork replacement job.

It's a Lancer Oz rally lip. Stock 99_00 bumper. Evo 8 ecu. I have no emissions related parts left on the car. No check engine lights.

yes you can turn the emissions of with the ecu, the ecu is tuned through the OBD2 port, a BBK turbo is a stock frame evo turbo make by CBRD. 

new temporary transmission is in along with an ACT 2100 PP and 6 puck sprung disk, combo should be good for 420wtq, Ive put about 100 miles on it so far and the pedal is much more daily driver friendly. Cant wait to get my old trans back from TRE after it gets upgraded with their stage 2 rebuild, also looking into doing a transmission cooler and mounting it in the driver's side foglight hole.

Crashed a BMW Dyno day, opportunity to try a Dyno dynamics vs my regular Dynojet, car made 328whp and 346wtq on PREs Dyno dynamics as compare to my 326 and 335 on the English Racing dynojet

Transmission with LSD are being dropped off at English tomorrow so they can send it to TRE for me. Hope to have it back in time for the holidays.
