Hey guys, decided now's as good a time as any to start my turbo build thread! It's going to be a slow methodical process, but well worth it!
My basic set up will be K24a2 with an HTA 35r turbo on E85 to a goal of 650+whp
The bay will be undergoing transformation as well. Specific set up will remain secret until it is done. Not doing a full shave super crazy clean. The car will be driven and beat from time to time, and I will show it the same. Basically cleaning up the bay with a wire tuck, braided lines, and most importantly....... ditching the ugly sheet metal core support for a full chromolly tube setup (details will remain secret so the guys with the big bucks who find this on Google don't go and copy)
Feel free to comment! This will be a long process as I have a big year ahead of me financially, going to Europe for 2 weeks, along with finishing off the majority of my loans this year.
First was pull the K24 (previously JRSC tuned to 293whp)
Following strict directions written up by a guy I work with:
JRSC and front end pulled
Couple chains and elbow grease along with one swift "tug"
Block in the rental minivan. Sent out to Innovative Motorworks in Carlisle Pa to be built by D-Rob. Amazing guys who do some great work. Highly recommend as they came recommended to me VIA a local guy on K20a. Block undergoing full sleeving process by Benson, to 87mm. Cp 10.8:1 pistons, Manley turbo tuff rods. (will be getting this allback in just a few short weeks!)
K24a2 head will be getting the following goodies.
Brian Crower stage 2 cams, Supertech: valves(both sides), dual springs, seats, retainers, seals, keepers.
Valves will be 5 angle cut
More to come with more info. That's all I got for now. Enjoy and keep checking back!
