    @TheMAN - not sure where it says I'm stuck on running 0 overlap. My post about cam timing was referring to using a degree wheel and dial indicators to set cams in relation to the crank because of all the machine work done. Playing with adjustments and overlap just hasn't happened yet. @jadycr -...

    My clutch is slipping now.. what better time to get the transmission put together. I had a long term plan to make an adapter plate for a Toyota e153 transmission to swap in but not wanting to deal with hassle got the better of me. I bought the Par 1-4 gearset instead. It's gonna be loud but I...

    Making decent power so far 337whp/332wtq. This was a 3rd gear pull from 3500-6500rpm. 17psi peak boost tapering down to 13psi at redline. Need to fiddle with the boost controller or swap a stiffer wastegate spring in so it holds boost to redline.

    Finished the turbo last weekend. Lacking more progress pics but here it is all installed and running. Have driven around some, tweaking the fuel map, making sure nothing is leaking or falling off. This thing spools up fast! I'm impressed there's virtually no loss in low end compared to the last...

    Protege's getting a turbo upgrade! Over the last couple years I collected parts, learned how to TIG weld and produced from scratch a twin scroll T4 turbo manifold to mate a Borg Warner EFR7163 to the FS. It's been a huge challenge but so far I'm happy with how things are coming together. More...
