Here's what i've got so far. Sandy sent me some pics of my block. The name tags make it special

 

Man I wish I wasn't 2870 miles away from Forged...
Thats gonna be sick when it gets done!

 

Updates. Some pics of my old block and tranny.




And pics with the new shorty, oem heads and jwt cams...SWEET!




BTW...as per Sharif's recommendation, I changed out the stage 4 clutch for the Carbonetic triple disc...wallet took a hit, but sacrifice for power and reliability

 

Awesome dude.

It's good to see other service members here with a G fixation too.

 

^^^

Power is addicting, and modding is fun and the G is a sweet ride to do it on. Always get looks. I've met several service members on the forums, a couple with the same/similar setups so that helped my decisions and goals.

 

Glad you got the brakes....

I guess we will see you at ZdayZ....Please dont ask what is ZdayZ..

 

^^^ Trying to cover all my bases, thanks for the recommendations...wanted a full BBK but the stage II should hold up a bit. Forgot to mention I saw your ride when I first visited FP in August. I'm definitely not up to your level. And as for ZdayZ, not sure what my schedule looks like if I can get away from Ft Hood. We'll see!

 

^^^^

Please post your dyno results. I have the same turbo kit and I'm anxious to see how the turbos spool up.

 

wow sure seems you came into a lot more money since the beginning of this thread.
good to hear!

And T, you sh/*t is never going to be here. At this rate, I'll prolly be done before you are. Its a race to the end of the year

 

^^^ The money has been there, but I didn't want to spend too much...that went out the window, but also I changed out the GTM kit to the greddy 20g, managed to free up some extra money that way.

 

I'm sure Sharif is thanking you as that Greddy kit installs nice and easy.

 

Yeah, so I hope that means minimal delays and results to report within a month. Looking forward to some boost when I get home!

 

i think i'll have an aneurysm if your car is done within a month. Mine has been at forged for over a year now and i got news today that sharif "never heard about the deadline" of november 7th so i'm again stuck with a god damn rental car on my leave from baghdad. 4th time in a row.

 

^^ A whole year??? damn that sucks. Although I didn't get a built block, I got just about everything else and took about 6 weeks start to finish.

 

just a year at forged, two years since i started the build. $75,000 into it and i've had 1000 miles with bad turbo bearings 6 months ago, was a total embarrassment to even drive without boost. Of course that was after i twisted forged arms off with frustration. I can't even express my anger.
