Yup, but he wants to TT it too. Have you seen those kits yet? Put down something like 1200. Nuts

Yahhh the hellraiser kit is badass...its a compound boost setup using the supercharger and twin turbos....but he would have to throw the stock supercharger back on...on pump gas he will be around 780...race gas he will be around 980....you will blow the stock engine if you were to get near 1200
The stock trans on my car will hold the 850rwhp...but I'll eventually go with a built auto in a month or two!
Nice that should be fun.
Yahhh I'm excited!
Here's some actual camera pics I took today. K-member, coil-overs, and Caster/Camber platers are in, engines in, and got the turbo headers bolted up now too! Sorry I couldn't get more pics of the engine...it was up on the rack the whole time.

Haha thanks man...it doesn't look as amazing as you think! It's getting cleaned up though so I'm happy (thumb)
lol, everytime I need to adjust/repair something in my suspension, I usually dread it. I already know that I will have to deal with multiple seized/rusted bolts, etc...
Hahah that's the worst man...the sooner u get to working on them, the easier they will be to get out!!
Not sure I follow your logic. At 8+ years old, through salt infested winters, I feel like it will be a PITA regardless, lol. I had to actually redrill my subframe to mount my rear sway-bar when I changed out my bushings last spring. Grade-8 drill bit broke off while drilling out the bolt... It was an epic fail. lol That was probably the worst I have come across on the protege's underbody thus far tho. Typically it's just a good upperbody workout.

I dont even know what to say... this is crazy!
Wonder what your going to do 6months after this is done.
Maybe you can pick up a new engine from Rolls Royce, a big ass spoiler and go for the sound barrier.

Hahahhaa oh wow I didn't know it was that bad! Damn man that's insane!
Hahahaha that would be a good time.
Nooo I'll probably buy a fully built auto to put in the car around that time. I'm putting in a roll cage and full length subframes next month as well...so the auto would make the car even more fun!
Hahah holy s*** that thing is ridiculous!

Couple pics of the fuel system...I'll have better pics of the fuel system soon when it's allll mounted up nice..for right now it's just in and we'll clean it up later! Gotta love the -8 cross braided fuel line allll the way through!!
Y-block coming from the fuel hat
Fuel filter
Fuel line crossover at the fuel rails...just a teaser pic until the top side gets finished
(Don't mind the two microfiber towels, they are protecting parts of the powder-coating that could possibly get hit)
Time for the hot side stuff:
Passenger side wastegate right off the headers....yes it will be left venting to atmosphere
Passenger side wastegate, up-pipe and turbo!
A view from the front with the intercooler in there
The intercooler with a nice little view of the cobra grille and emblem
Driver-side wastegate and piping
Driver-side wastegate, up-pipe, and turbo (still needs to be clocked to mount up with the intercooler better!
Close up of the driver-side turbo mounted
A nice view from the back of the car looking towards the front at the tubular K-member and wastegates!
And finally a nice pic of it from the front with the turbo's mounted and the intercooler
The hot-side will be done on Monday and the cold-side/top-side will begin then!! Stay tuned!!
