Hey,

Figured I would document my build so I could potentially help people out in the future.

List of mods I'm installing (I can't weld or tune so other people will do those two tasks for me)

CPR Single kit with A/W intercooler - waiting to be built/shipped
FRPP boss oil pan (the $130 one) - sent to Dustin to get the return fitting welded onto it
MMR sheetmetal intake - shipping out with turbo kit
Griggs Torque Arm
Griggs watts linkage
Griggs adjustable lower rear control arms
griggs relocation brackets
welded axle tubes/griggs shock reenforcement plates
Add a third walbro fuel pump (465lph)
lethal perf over axle pipes
TSS oil pump gears
MMR crank gears
MMR timing chain guides
Boss alternator
Boss timing chain tensioners
Mcleod RXT with Mcleod steel flywheel with ARP flywheel bolts
FRPP CJ high rpm pulse ring
MGW Race spec shifter
Steeda adjustable front sway bar endlinks
Cooltech rear tower brace
KW V3 coilovers
Tig vision spare tire intercooler reservoir with 3700 rule pump
I believe Dustin modifies a BMR kmember so that and whatever radiator support he adds
Micron 6 fuel filter - my micron 10 ruined 2 of my ID1000 injectors. I had them cleaned and inspected. The guy i dealt with over at Injector dynamics was really polite and helpful, so I appreciate that dude! He also got me a deal on 2 new ID1000 injectors and waived the inspection fee on the two damaged injectors.

Mods already on car:
stage 2 P1 - taken off
Boss intake - taken off
JPC return-style fuel system
DSS carbon fiber driveshaft
Brembo brakes with girodisc magic pads and girodisc rotors (thanks shaun@AED for the deal)
13-14 GT500 rear brake kit
corbeau A4 seats
GT500 steering wheel
Kenny brown radiator support - taking off
AFCO radiator
Steeda torque box braces
FRPP front hubs with extended ARP studs
built rear axle with detroit eaton locker i believe it's called, 3.31 gears, and stock axles with extended ARP studs


Here are a few pictures of the progress I made so far:

More to come when I get more stuff in. The third pump is already installed and the tank is back in.

Any questions, just ask.

Awesome build!

What's your intent with the car? Sounds like a whole lot of tire spin waiting to happen...
Keep it between the lines, and the shiny side up! :beer:

Very nice man! Looks like a killer build. I too just ordered a CPR kit, can't wait. Dustins the man.

What turbo did you go with?

Don't really have any intent with the car. I want to do mile events but hardly know of any in MI.

LMK if you are going to sell the boss intake.

I already found a local buyer.

I went with an 80mm comp turbo, I believe.
