#117425 I want some pics of your gun metal fat fives.

Your z6 is pure stock right?
Turbo z6s can be very fast, even stock.

You should build up anouther block on the side asap. You will want to go over your 250hp limit on your rods.

If you wanna boost now, which i cant blame you, I would highly recommend start building atleast another z6 bottom end.

I Highly Recommend Forged Rods and Arp Rodbolts. Vitaras will help you get you be able to run higher boost levels as you have lower compression. However you will have to run more psi to get your hp level you had before.

I don't have gun metal fat fives :eh:

and yeah, its all stock right now, it's going to be running on the stock wastegate spring at 6.5 psi, and that will be enough for me while i save money for rods pistons and head work etc.

#137119 Well, couple updates on the coupe.

Got some rims. 15 inch Drag dr16's with tires for 300, not bad I don't think. The 195's handle a lot better than the little 175/185's that were on it.

Image

I'll get some better pics later.

Got a new transmission and a stage 3 six puck clutch and 8lb flywheel.

Image

And now I'm running 8 psi instead of 6 and it all seems to still be okay, about 200 miles into breaking in the clutch. The clutch seems to be alright, I haven't tested it's abilities due to breaking it in, but it seems alright for daily driving it. The clutch chatter is quite noticeable though.

More updates to come :woot:

Oh yeah, I definitely will, I plan on keeping this car for as long as possible :thumb:

I also got another 200+ miles on it, so 320,2xx atm and running strong, but I think I'm going to need a new head gasket very soon, my car likes to get a little hotter when it's idleing after I've driven it for a while.

It's funny when I roll against someone and beat them, then they look at my car, see I still have AC, PS, and 320,xxx miles on a little single cam :woot:
