I’ve always loved the look of new edge saleens, never cared for the 2v drivetrain. So I bought 2002 S281sc #408, a MG car with 77k miles with the goal of putting a 4v twin turbo swap.
Bought the car out of state and it arrived a pile of hot trash...engine barely ran, missing and smoking...
hello everyone.
i've been a member on here since 2011, was fairly active then disappeared for a couple years.
I sold my cobra last year and picked up a '02 s281sc as a project car. it's undergoing a complete power train swap(teksid block, 4v with forged internals, 04 cobra heads, t56 magnum...
i'm crossing into the darkside and a lot of this turbo stuff is still very new to me.
currently acquiring parts, mostly done...few more things to get.
i bought hellion tt kit with 62mm precision turbos, so it's designed to run off stock manifolds/shorty headers. i have neither.
should i just...
out with a few buddies last weekend and we decided to cross the border into mexico for a little fun. wasn't planning on racing when i left, so the gopro was just lying on the floor in the car and not mounted...wish it would've been for the 1st race. wound up beside my friend and decided what...
Upgraded fuel system over the winter, trying to make room in the garage.
Not sure where they max out, but I was making just under 700whp on e85 and they still had room to go.
Perfect for someone trying to build a budget friendly, return style fuel system.
Asking $250 OBO, price includes...
So, got bored with the little KB and figured it was time for more power.

Replaced the aero340 stealths w/Walboro 465's in a DivX fuel hat
Got some new ID1000's and DivX rails

Upgrading from the old 2.2KB, figured I should get some fresh plugs in there and get them gapped for the increase in boost....problem is I don't know how much boost im going to make.
2.9 Crusher with 3"/4lb
LT's
Fairly aggressive cams
E85
How much boost do you think it'll make? What...
upgrading blower soon, figured I should put some fresh plugs in while I'm at it. Not sure what plugs I should get, where to gap them and a boost estimate.
It's a 2.9 crusher with 3"/4lb

E85
Suggestions?
I have a 2.9 Crusher sitting in my garage waiting to go on...my question is this:
What fuel rails are you using to clear the crusher inlet? I currently have aeromotive rails bc that's what fit under my 2.2KB
just bought a 2.9 crusher, want to up the injectors from 80lb to 105lb.
looking for new rails bc my current ones are red aeromotive and they don't really match the car(orange), so i figured what better time to switch them out than when everything is off the car.
let me know what you have...
I'm determined to get this high iat2 issue licked, once and for all...so I'm taking the shotgun approach. It's a cammed, e85, KB car and since the cams/e85 upgrades the iat2 have been way too high....like 160* on a 70* day and normal driving.
Has a RAI now, with a JLT hi boost in the garage...
i've been having some high charge temps lately. like as high as 160* during short distance, normal driving conditions with some stop/go and ambient temps in the 60's-70's.
intercooler pump is pumping like a champ.
i believe i've narrowed it down to a few potential culprits, but would like...
So my fiancées jeep is at the body shop from when she went into a ditch and her insurance policy apparently doesn't include a rental car.
She is paying out of pocket for a rental car, at nearly $200 a week. It's already been 10 days, the shop told her the parts will be in on Monday then...
just picked up new(to me) HK45c yesterday. i've never had a H&K before, so i don't know a whole lot about them other than they're expensive - a 10rd mag is going to cost me $80.
the slide is showing a little wear, but i don't care...it'll be a carry piece, not sitting in a trophy case. it...
after some searching, i've found a few threads about twin screw and cammed cobras creating high IAT's due to lack of proper vacuum level not opening the bpv.
it appears the solution is a low vacuum bpv, but i haven't been able to find the write up on it...i saw an eaton post, and some tips...
i didn't really want to put this under the "smackdown" title, but it's the only sport subsection.
anyone here collect sports memorabilia? jerseys, autographs, game balls, etc...? i'm interested mainly in jerseys/helmets, but like all forms of collectibles.
other than meeting a...
so i got a new(to me) 3" catback from a friend of mine(JBA pipes w/MAC weld-ins...i have no idea how it's going to sound), but i've been needing a 3" x pipe to finish the system. can't find any that will fit up to bbk long tubes(i know they're not the best, but they were on the car when i...
looking for a pulley to replace the one that broke off my car.
a 3.25" is preferred since that is what the tune was done with, but i'd consider a retune with a 3".
post up or PM if you have anything. thanks.
this is a good example of why our country is becoming so pathetic...pussy parents raise pussy kids.

it was about 3am and i was heading home from the gym. it was super cold out so i wanted to let the cobra stretch its legs a little with some good boosting air. a spirited 2-3 pull and SNAP! voltage dummy light came on and i figured i just snapped the belt...so i pull off to assess the damage...
