My DSM build
Well, after reading my initial dsm thread, I decided that since I have completely changed my goals, and have actually started work, I'd start a new thread.
After removing the motor and trans, I found that the original 7 bolt motor is in great shape. i'm probably going to do a little cleanup on the head, bolt it all back together, and put it back in. when i crankwalk, or blow it up, i'll get a 6 bolt (no reason to not use a perfectly good engine) I'm going to use AGPs new 60 trim walbro 255 fuel pump cheaper 660 or 720 injectors adjustable fuel pressure regulator DSMLink to control everything Zeitronix wideband, egt and boost gauges (loggable hehe) Ported exhaust manifold HOPEFully an 02 eliminator downpipe (if not, just port out my stock 02 housing, and get a regular downpipe) catback will hopefully be made by myself, using mandrel bends and probably a magnaflow muffler all the intake piping is going to be done by me with mandrel bends Intercooler is going to be a cheap (read not spearco) bar and plate design hacked 1g mas for now, depending on funds get a GM MafT setup later I've got a lot of work ahead of me , however after all is said and done, I should be easily in the 350+ all wheel horspower range, and with the 6 bolt and forged internals, i could put down a nice 450 or so. basically... It'll be a damn good time I've almost convinced myself that this will become a full road racing car, and will have a rollcage, full good coilover setup, big brake kit, and racing seats. these, and the money to buy these, will come at a later date. (the stock brakes and suspension are going to get a booster when i start making power, its just not in the "budget" yet...) I'll be updating this thread with pictures and coarse language as i progress. (i have some engine pics that i'll post sometime tonight or tomorrow)
