Hey now,
My motor is completed, its just not broken in, and tuned perfectly yet. The shop doesnt want to give it to me until its broken in, just in case anything happens. Eh, the sacrifices we make to ensure, we "are in good hands" I guess.


edit: I guess tuning, and break in, could be considered necessary to completion.

Sounds like a great car. Can we boil it down to a single line like the other entries? I can't tell from this list, but would guess it is Alusil 104/88, 3.0 liters, 16v head, k29, Motronic PH chips, 968cam?

RolexNJ

I think that sounds pretty good. His build list is very extensive.

Miles:

Do you happen to have more photos of your car? It looks beautiful and I think a lot of people would love to see more of it!

adrian1

So, my big motored friends, I'm mulling over intercooler options and don't see much mention in this thread of intercoolers. What are you all running?

tone3721

John, whats your rear bumper?

any picture of your engine bay?

Olli Snellman

I suppose John is using a Euro bumper without the rubberstripe.

420WHP944

Yes, as Olli stated...its a euro bumper but I removed the black rubber strip and filled the holes. If the car was any other colour but white I wouldn't have bothered doing it but the black strip stood out far too much for my liking against the white. I will post a pic of the engine bay when I get the chance...
