Ok. I was confused because you used the video title of lab sunfire but I was sure you used a 2.2 lower end and I seen a l61 valve cover. Did you also swap from auto? I seen that the trans mount was orange.
nope always had a 5 speed and the block is a 2.2 LAP but everything else is LSJ or atleast will be LSJ if this shop ever finishes my head

Just FYI LD9 Z24 Version coming soon
GMR has got nothing on this
So does it all have to come out again? You going to be painting the engine bay?
only thing ill have to do is swap the heads over and i really dont care how the engine bay looks at this point its going to be a drag car not a show car

Please dont get the curtis mentality.... Make it all look good. It wont take a ton of time to clean it up and make it look decent. Just a simple cleaning. I know its a race car and all but no reason to not take a few minutes to clean it up. Glad its running though!
A bottle of simple green and a couple spray cans of black will go along way in making it look better. If its not a show car, it doesnt have to be perfect.
"Oil Leak ? What oil Leak ? Oh, Thats Just The Sweat From All The HorsePower!!"
well the engine bay is 80 percent rattle canned black only part that isnt is the area around the trans which ill be spraying prolly tomorrow also need to change the pedal ratio on my brakes so i can get a lil more line pressure. im also gonna pick up some more exhaust pipe tomorrow so i can finish that up then hopefully thursday or friday i can start road tuning it.

Glad you got the car going man congrats. Hope you can enjoy it some before you leave!
So i emailed full race asking them when ill be getting the EFR and they said its going to be around April so im trying to find another turbo mani so i can run my old turbo or end up going with a dif turbo from full race. i know if i ditch the EFR ill hate myself but at this point its just irritating that 4 months after i paid for it i still have to wait another 3 months on top of that ill be leaving the states around that time. But the good news is i got the exhaust finished, and the pedal ratio changed so tomorrow im hoping to do some road tuning with it. Oh and one small bit of bad news one of my injectors was stuck open so i might be sending them back to injector dynamics so they can test them.

Worth checking suppliers else where to see if any of them have the turbo? Id hate to see it all delayed after waiting 7 months for a turbo...

well right now im looking at the 7670 non EFR and i would just have to buy a wastegate and BOV and be good as long as it is in stock. Full race thinks the shipment in april will be the 9180's so it will be even longer wait for the 7670. I'm tired of waiting.

that sounds like alot of work lol get some more pics man. im watching this ish

They cant be the only one who supplies turbo's. Id look into other sources, find one in stock, get your money back from full race, then buy from other supplier. Someone has to have the turbo out there for sale....
Nice wheels.
, Have who have you tried contacting about the turbo thus far? Atpturbo.com, Treadstoneperformance.com, are the only sites that come to mind right now.
