    Plan is 16x10 fronts 16x12 rears.

    Thanks for your help!
    The jumpers on the wdw setup should be set to use the single ignition driver that's installed. I plan on running wasted spark so I'll need to add in the additional drivers.

      Btw, How's the 8lb flywheel working out? I just got a package from uuc but still debating on running a 8lb. My thoughts are it should work fine until a big snail gets dropped in?

      Thanks!

      I loved how quick it rev'd with the 8lb from JB Racing.
      I never put much thought into it past "lighter is better", hopefully it doesn't turn into a problem with the HX52.

        Shitty pictures, I apologize.
        Sourced a set of hood splitters!


        No compression in cylinder 6, so time for stroker build


        Trying to buy the mtech 2 set from Sskoda currently, just waiting for a reply.

        Put sawblades on the e28 since I got them for free from a friend.

            Not sure I got an email but all possible I missed it, sorry if I did 8^(

            Please email me again to resolve it or to assist with setting up the WS - w h o d w h o @ c o x . n e t

            One thing is to make sure the TunerStudio project is set for Microsquirt Module or it scrambles up the ignition settings and will run like shit or no start

            Let me know

                I like your choice in automobile modifications.

                  Picked up some coilovers for cheap, time to finally put in my e36 rack too


                  Sold off almost all of my m20 parts and bought a 5.3 LM7 and T56


                  Stripped it down to put on car manifolds/accessories


                  My little brother started working on the harness


                  Still need all of the car accessories to make it all fit and a turbo/wastegate/clutch/flywheel/injectors/fuel rails...stay tuned

                      Flipped the truck manifolds and cut the flanges off.


                      Also ordered an ls2 water pump since it's thinner.

                        Did you order the kamotors extra wide fender flares? Trying to see as far as looks because I'm ordering a set very soon myself. Awesome build so far and some inspiration since I just got a turbo kit!

                            Put the coilovers in and the salad shooters no longer cleared on the inside, hence the skinnies up front. My little brother thinned out the harness for a set 42lbers for his volvo.


                            Non sense that we removed.


                            Bought an ls6 intake manifold and gto oil pan, working on ls6 cam/springs/pushrods and ls9 head gaskets and arp studs.
