My 06 SGM STI, from begining to now...

[bugeye_fever]

Cool! Thanks man, I like the ported stock manifold, and have it in my plans. But I'll have to see how it compares to other headers by wieght. I'd love to save a couple lbs off the nose of the car. Good luck with the build!

Well, we are almost done with the porting and polishing......

our tech is taking his time, but the results are great.

 

[HolyCrapItsFast]

This is nice progress. Beautiful port work.

 

[gerwulf]

Here are some more pictures of the work being done......

 

[gerwulf]

now, if I had money for headers.............these heads would flow sooooooo much!

Cleaned up my ATP3076r with some Rust Stop high temp paint

And the exhaust and turbo are mounted, just waiting on oil seals

Well, the intake is mounted, the phelonic spacers are in place and the old Perrin turbo inlet is installed

Well, here she is at the moment, the cam gears are on and the timing belt is on, the marks are all lined up, I just need to get a 3/8 to 1/2 adapter so I can finish torquing down the cam gears, and a valve cover gasket then I can finish up.

Update time, I finally got the motor put back together completely, and with a little cooperation from mother nature, we were able to put it in.
I put the clutch on....

Here is my very good friend helping....

here it is going in....

[gerwulf]

I will clean it up this weekend and put the hood on. Before putting the hood on I will take some pictures.

[gerwulf]

waiting, and waiting.................waiting for my buddy to swap radiators with me, waiting for P&L Motorsports to find my emails and schedule a dyno tune and send me a base tune.........Man the waiting is killing me.

 

[gerwulf]

Yep, just tired of waiting lol

 

[IGOTASTi]

Yep, just tired of waiting lol

That's the hardest part.

 

[gerwulf]

Well, Igot the radiator and hoses in, now I just need the tune

 

[gerwulf]

Nope, they are supposed to email me a base tune to break the car in on, then I will drive it up there for the dyno tune.
