I bought lots of new parts CJM twin pumps and return fuel system, Cosworth intake, ViPEC V-88 ECU. As well as other stuff I had from my original stock block TT build. Anyway I pulled the stock motor stripped everything I needed off of it and dressed the built long block. I dropped the fully dressed engine in and everything went well on start up a few leaks to track down basically the norm for DIY builds.
I got a mild tune done (my exhaust was just running open dumps still) I drove the car for a few weeks and everything was running well. I then got the exhaust finished up and chased down another small leak we went to the dyno for some tuning but discovered the Cosworth end caps were leaking.

After i got everything back together it was off to the dyno. Where things went well at first. At 18-19psi we tuned up to 5000 rpm the car was making 575whp and 620ft/lbs while tuning








We were tuning fairly conserative with pump gas and no meth yet. We were at 5000-5500rpm and decided to take a break and let the car cool down, when I walked back in the dyno room I noticed coolant leaking on the floor i thought I had popped a coolant hose. Upon further investigation the coolant overflow was full and running over I had a good guess at what this meant. We pulled the car off the dyno and the next day i came back and started confirming my worst nightmare. I did a leak down, compression test and pressure test on the cooling system everything looked good .

So where am I at now? I have everything installed and the car runs, but i have an exhaust leak I have to chase down then onto the dyno!![/QUOTE]

That car seat is awesome! I never knew you could get that.

 

Whoa, Recaro child seats... I had no idea.

 

you selling any of those Recaro child seats...?? lol

 

I got them through one of the forum sponsors Gruppe-S they were awsome. I think the cost was about $225USD+$50shipping each for the Recaro young sports. My oldest girl 2.5yrs loves it she even talks about her New seat when she gets in the car each time.


I know I want to get them on but work has been crazy for me lately so I am bagged by the time I get home but hopefully I have updates early next week.


PS My engine and Wilwood BBK just came I will upload pictures soon.

 

check out costco for the seat too, no one buys them cause they dont know of recaro so they discount it liek crazy i think i paid 56 bucks for one a year ago.


but damn crazy build!!! 305s~~!!!!
