Looks good. I see you're using 4130N, unless you plan on baking the whole truck to stress relieve it after welding (the RIGHT way to do it), you should AT LEAST keep the gap in the pipe fitup to less than the wall of the tube. Meaning, you need to atleast redo the halo bar over the...

Jeebus! $2,000 in extra parts for the fuel system, and they didn't upgrade the fuel rails??!! $2,500 for a lowering kit, clutch, and gauges???!!! Did they upgrade the ignition system (controller, coils, etc.)? Where exactly did they plumb in the "intercooler"? Did they atleast buy you dinner...

You're looking for a tag, either on the compressor housing, or on the CHRA. http://www.turbomaster.info/eng/turbos/identify_garrett.php Figure 10-14 hours ($900-$1,700) to RDI and reinstall the engine, $800-$1200 for pistons, $500 for gaskets. $2,500 for custom stainless...

That's not a problem, though on stock internals it probably won't last long. Yes, much less. Forged pistons, normal mounting location for the turbo, and a good tune. If you can get the assembly numbers off the turbo I can look up the map, you might be able to use most of what you've got...

That depends on the torque curve in relation to vehicle drag. 4.56:1 ; 48RE 3rd gear 120MPH= 5800RPM 48RE 4th gear 120MPH= 3900RPM 4.11:1 48RE 3rd gear 120MPH= 5200RPM 48RE 4th gear 120MPH= 3500RPM With the 4.56s you'll accelerate faster in 3rd, but you'll run out of RPM. As...

Unless OD is slipping, you need a shorter gear out back.

If you're in the the southeast, there's only one place to go, ATF. Jason is the only person I'd trust to build my transmissions (if I didn't build them myself). He's got Dexron/Mercon running through his veins.

I see several problems: 1- Remote mount 2- You don't really need an intercooler if you're running less than 8-10# (though it depends on the intake temps) you're just creating a restriction/larger volume of air to compress (increases lag). 3-He actually let Marty touch his truck...

Try a shorter tire and a set of caltracs. You'll effectively increase your final drive ratio with the shorter tire, and you'll need to caltracs to help with wheelspin off the line. What RPM are you currently at in 4th through the lights?

I traded my '00 GSXR600 for my R/T, and after 6 months I had to get back on 2 wheels. So I picked up a '97 Triumph Daytona T595 (955cc).

-That engine a viper or a magnum for the R/T ? Magnum -what do you know about the 2001 honda accord trans and its failure they're extremely sensitive to the fluid you use, and they're almost as bad as chrysler FWDs when it comes to sensor issues/limp home mode. I don't like...

I wrote a rather long introduction yesterday, when I posted it it said something like "mods may check the post before its listed". It hasn't shown up yet, though I haven't had any problems replying to topics.

testing, please delete

Does it make the noise if you're sitting still and shift back and forth between reverse and drive?
