Alright it's time for an update...
So it's been some time and things have been arriving, and I've been searching for other items I need in order to get to my goals.
Shout out yet again to Streeter... My HPI J-Pipe delete kit, and HPI version 1 manifold arrived...
I'm rather happy with the purchases and I can almost button up the hot side of this thing... Last on the list? A damn turbo! I had one lined up, but the deal fell through unfortunately. I'm on the hunt for a CT15B replacement since I'm sticking with the bottom mount setup. Billet or Steel larger internals and I'll up the boost a bit to party.
I could do Tomei or rebuild the stock one. I'm not looking to shoot to the HP stars, so I'm still researching. I'm leaning towards having the stocker rebuild.
I also need to get a new clutch, and I'm currently speaking to Driftmotion to see what they recommend. I want to keep a street feel, so I'm not looking to purchase a heavy, chatty clutch. I want it to feel like a single stage, take weekend track abuse, and hold 400 HP.
I also ordered a few engine bay tune mods. Should look nice once everything is together. I'm also on the hunt for valve covers. I want to refinish them in my little ones favourite colours so I've been keeping an eye on YAJ and various Facebook groups I'm a part of.
It's now boost season, so we are counting down the days still it's storage time...
Come back warm weather...
