I know Marc. Remember when he first moved to Orlando.

If you know him, get him to make a billet VQ37 block. Just sayin.

Lol! Last time I saw Mark he had a small Fab shop and had just EASd from the Marines. Then he blew up. From what I know they can build VQs but their billet stuff is pricey. That said I may end up driving over.

They make a VQ35 billet block. I am not sure if it is a wet block or not.

MA-Motorsports also had a problem with making the tune work - boost spikes and boost creep - so they went with external waste gates and external boost controller.
This effectively eliminated the automatically compensating Flex Fuel tune.
It ended up being a major loss of time and money.

I have had issues before with internal wastegates. Boost creep and boost spikes also. Internal wastegates suck.

I may have to put my stock wheels and tires on before I take the car north. R888r's aren't gonna like the cold.

It doesn't really get that cold here in Orlando but what I can tell you is that they dont like to act right in anything under 50 degrees or so.

RE11's don't like it either. I am use to that. I am worried about the temps getting below 20deg. When I read the spec sheet for the R888r's, the tread will crack if it get's below 15 deg. They have to be set inside for a day or two above 68 deg. The poor guys at MA's shop are dealing with 38 deg's in the shop with heaters blaring. Those guys are freezing. It's cold as heck up there right now.

Yeah, I am stressing.... LOL
