Sweet thanks man. Would you say it was still cheaper than a TT kit? At the end of the day was it under $10k?
|
No way it'll be under $10k, unless you do all the fab work yourself and get a free engine. Fixing hiccups and tuner/mechanic mistakes is what cost me more in this project, not easy to avoid when you're the test rabbit.
In all honesty, had my G been an MT, with Fast intentions in my same country and a tuner nearby I could trust, I would've definitely skipped the RB Project. Back then it was only GTM for me. |
Damn man, this is such an amazing build! I love the car!
I love that rb sound... |
Thank you Zerocool! Here's an update from last night :) The weather's getting nicer and I decided to put her on the dyno see how she'es doing:
She put down 485whp @ 0.9bar (low boost setting) and 615whp @ 1.6 bar (high boost setting). The car actually saw 1.7 bar when I datalogged it on the street. NOT COMPLAINING :D Here's a screenshot of the High boost run. Was too excited to adjust the Torque Axes Scale but you get the picture. http://i451.photobucket.com/albums/q...ps9ae793ac.png I got too excited on the road and with all the boost the charge pipe eventually came off, thinking of just welding that fcker in: http://i451.photobucket.com/albums/q...psf33cda3e.jpg And here's a video of me on the dyno pretending I knew what I was doing haha |
Sam... Sexy as fck. Wish you were local to the states. I wanna see her in action.
|
This is such a great build! My hat goes off to you for the time, dedication, and money you have put into your G! :tiphat:
|
Thanks guys, I'm glad it paid off eventually :)

I got the deal of a lifetime on a Detroit-built machine :stirthepot:
That (unfortunately?) forced me to get rid of this workshop-whore! Off to a new owner she goes, hope he takes good care of her. Attachment 102354 |
sad to see her go.
