NjsGT's build.... with pics!

[NjsGT]

Are you still running the stock manifold?

yea..... i was planning on it
not sure if im going to have the cash to get a black lung.....
right now im tryin to decide on

-delete plates or no deletes
-draw through inatke or blow through
-stock TB of something else...... after the break in

 

[Blxcklist]

Definitely get delete plates if nothing else!

 

[HOLYWD]

Gt500 TB from CJ pony for around 100 and the Saleen deletes off eBay for 105
Bam ready to rock and roll

I would recommend the delete plates for sure... The manifold isn't a must, was just wondering.

Definetly blow thru since you already have the a2a setup and go to a tial bov.
Then...
2.8 pulley

Get the home made deletes from chris you will not be disappointed plus they are only $70. That's what I did and they look great. Your car is coming along nicely

You could also use yours and rip the butterfly plates out of them and have maybe your local shop weld up the holes. I did that and got to port them a little bit.

I may sell my FRPP Manifold in the summer depending on what I do with the car. If I do I'll send ya a message and hook ya up at a good price.

THINGS I'M GOING DO THIS WEEKEND.....

1. Clean up the crank pulley, light coat of paint on it, and install
2. Transfer motor over to the lift
3. Install rear main seal and retaining plate
4. Install motor mount brackets
5. Install oil pan
6. Install new Mcleod RST and RAM alum flywheel
7. Look into making O2 sensor extensions... (Anyone know what gauge wire they are?)
8. Eat, shit, sleep..... haha

 

[GrnBullitt08]

Sounds like a fun weekend. Goodluck

Don't forget the monster and red bull

And beer...

Get the tial 50mm or tial Q. You can pick either an ss or aluminum weld on flange for it depedning on the type of piping you used. Or a few companies sells piping with the flange already welded on that you just plumb in. The price of the pipe is cheaper then paying the labor for welding imho.

If you decide to do it or need more details just give me a shout.

-steeda delete's
-tial 50mm BOV (thanx LB)
-2.87 pulley (ill be trading my current 3.40 pulley for NYshelbys 2.87)

also, i need some feedback now
looking into a larger TB....
how are the BBK 62mm twins? ive heard good/bad things about them...
should i just go for the stock gt500 TB with the spacer?

 

[GrnBullitt08]

Just grab a GT500 TB with adapter kit. It will plenty for your setup.

Delete plates, throttle body, and the BOV are must additions for ya @ your projected boost levels
