[tschatzinger]

you'll love your ride even more once you get sways installed ^ great pic, btw. lol

 

[Akaveli]

After you get your tranny fixed whats next?

 

[lucaspl88]

ok, sways might have to wait. .its super cold over here... 30's for past 2 days.. today in the morning was 42.. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr so much for having a nice fall season...
after i get the trans fixed, most likely will be intake manifold.. but i dont see a reason of doing anything through the winter...
what i just might do is gather up some money, and spring/summer start next year go balls out NA power

Sounds good. I still haven't decided if I wanna stay na or join the boost train. (dunno)

 

[thejeans]

looks good lucas, keep up the nice NA build


on a side note,
has anyone officially hit 200 +whp in an NA 3 yet... cause if not, ill save like a MOFO this winter and the combo of moving to a cheaper place of living will mean more mod money... and we can make it a race to 200 (friendly and good natured of course)... hahaha

 

[lucaspl88]

haha well ill go to a dynojet dyno to see where im @ with power... to show "higher numbers"... since now those numbers from dynodynamics are lowered

 

[lucaspl88]

Akaveli.. boost train sounds good... but gotta build the trans. and motor..
i just dont trust na motors with boost.... plus any spike of boost or not enough fuel for split second and engine goes to s***... better safe then sorry

[lucaspl88]

You only need to build the motor and tranny if you plan on boosting more then 8psi on the motor. Their are plenty of people who are boosting safely without having a build tranny or engine.

what were stages 1 and 2? and what is stage 4?

i know, ut im the kind of person that rather to be safe then sorry.
so ill be maximizing the NA power without building it...
i might finally get the intake manifold, but as of right now, im broke

 

[lucaspl88]

what were stages 1 and 2? and what is stage 4?

stage 1 and 2 r listed in NA build thread...
stage 1 and 2 include intake/header/exhaust/vtcs/clutch/flywheel etc...
stage 3 included air/fuel tuning device etc...

 

[Captain KRM P5]

ready to put the trans in at your command, lucas

 

[lucaspl88]

yes sir... josh most likely will get the trans for me on wednesday, since they wont have it ready for tuesday....
but we are all set for sunday then boss

Yeah.

You might be near maxed out without a build. The IM might net you a few more ponies but not much.

 

[lucaspl88]

yea.. that will be maxing out stock motor... all the way without porting the head etc.. but thats where all the money goes in you know. im just trying to see what the car can make with bolt ons only.. and a tune.. no motor work
