View attachment 297982 Motor is all finished and installed. Just have to come up with a little more $$$ for a maf setup.
MAF setup? Ditch the Maf and give that motor what she need deserves . Strait turbo speed density setup and the ability to tune her . That just my opinion. It's looking like it is going to be a beast

Thanks. I am open to speed density for sure. Not sure how to tune it but could learn. I did just order a 70 mm throttle body and a new plenum.
 
nice work Luke, i'd like to build another motor for the tea maybe next year. still working on getting the downpipes and exhaust on then on to front suspension.

Thankyou! You will like your new downpipe on your TTA. I will probably rebuild the TTA motor myself here in a year or so. These cars take up allot of $$$
 
Hey, that turbo LSx motor is missing two cylinders!

:p

Looks legit dude! I can't wait until I am able to put mine in my car.
 
That is motor porn. Good luck with your goals. I just had motor 109 rebuilt this past summer. Has about 1k miles on it. Initially I wanted the rebuild to run the car and hit the low 10s, but now I've dialed back and I probably could've saved myself a few thousand dollars at least as I will be happy to hit the low 11s. My wife was ready to break my neck until I bought her off with a trip to Europe, with my daughter as a part of high WWII trip.

I know exactly how you feel! my wife is in her last year of nursing school and $$$ is super tight. Im surprised she hasnt taken a hammer to my turbo cars.
