The I suck at keeping cars stock build thread

[that911]

good luck this weekend, i really jealous of your cars and workplace, the only race parts i have laying around at work are all my dads leftover kart parts. when your car had a dent on the fender, what sticker was that?

Good luck this weekend! Let us know how the car/you did! If you can, would love to hear that exhaust/cam combo.

Thank you to both of you. The car sounds exactly how I had hoped. I had it running today, but I had an issue with the Porsche HFM. I think I have it figured out thanks to my friend Geoff, so we'll see tomorrow. I posted a link to the video so you can hear what it sounds like.

To Josh, the sticker is our Grip Whisperers sticker.

Looking good bud. Great work !!!!

Thanks!

I love this thread because there's progress and explanation, not just a mess of pictures. lookin good!

Seriously, thanks so much for your support and on going encouragement. I think it's awesome!

We got back to it after work today. The bimmerworld Y-pipe wasn't fitting too nicely so we heat it up and bent it. I was hanging off of it haha.





We eventually got it mounted after bit of coercion and bending.


We had a bit of down time so I swapped the thermostat with a lower temp one and got the valve cover mounted.



Tomorrow we'll get the intake manifold, injectors, and intake installed. If everything goes according to plan it'll be running tomorrow.

Greatttt

Awesome thread so far, big fan of what you're doing

Thank you!


Yesterday we got the Vanos in and and the cams timed. I also flashed the Epic Motorsports software while I was at it.



Things are moving along nicely. Today we're going to get the M50 manifold mounted, and try to get the y-pipe and exhaust mounted as well. If everything goes according to plan we should have it running today or tomorrow and just in time for Round 4 of Redline Time Attack at Willow Springs International Raceway this weekend.

Bimmerworld 3" race exhaust and Y-pipe came in today. The exhaust on the right is the factory mid pipe and Dinan cat back, the middle is stock, and the left is the Bimmerworld piece. It should add some power and drop weight.

I have a high flow race cat to go with it too and keep it "legal". I'm thinking this exhaust is going to be a little on the loud side

that is all sorts of pretty

This is where I get incredibly jealous. You're doing all the things I wish I could do with my car right now.

Keep up the great work.

lol thanks man




Alright, back to work.

This is what 170k and a quart of oil every 300 miles looks like


New head with the Turner headers bolted on.

Picked up some Turner Motorsports shorty headers last night. Very happy with the quality and they're 50 state legal.

Hoh! I am keen to see these installed.
