believe it or not, lowering it
looks wonderful ken.
does JE or Weisco have pistons out for the 2.3l disi? what rods are going in? paulter? cosworth?
Dayum...this is going to be an 11 second car if driveline parts dont explode!
the driveline will be getting upgraded as well. if no one makes the parts, i will go custom. My setup will look something like this before the end of the year:
Protegegarage built shortblock
ATP 3076R Kit
3" turboback exhaust
Cobb access port (bang) ...if not, another EMS
3.5" ETS TMIC
Rear motor mount
Spec stage 2+ clutch
meth/alky injection for a high boost tune
I'm also working on looking for a low profile hood scoop that will sit over the TMIC to let cold air in and hot air out without looking ricey.
It should be a comfortable 11 second street car (thanks Ken!). I wont be taking into the track until my driveline is upgraded.
Why not a front mount?
The stock air vents direct air to the IC. Or were you talking about cooling the turbo? Just curious.
Engine looks fantastic.
Good luck.
wiseco does have pistons for the car, but i am not a big fan of wisecos. JEs i am really not a fan of at all. i like supertechs, arias and cp in terms of pistons. the rods going in are pauter rods.
it should be noted, normal 2.3 n/a pistons and rods cannot and should not be used in these engines.
