Sketch_hs Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Nice car. While I'll never understand why someone would want to buy a built car rather than build it themselves, I thank you for doing so, it keeps money in my pockets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cygnusx1 Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 Nice build. Â I think I can use that same build sheet for my car, minus half a handful of items. Â Â How do you like the ACT 6-puck? I got tired of mine and went with a larger diameter street clutch from ACT. Â Much more driveable on the street...well DUH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrismiller5157 Posted December 4, 2010 Author Share Posted December 4, 2010 The 240 is running GREAT, drove it to get the fenders rolled, so i put about 22 miles on it total so far. PowerFab put it on the dyno today and it made right over 300 at 8PSI with the holset hx-35. Tune is rich and we are just taking a easy on the 3.1 to brake it in nice safe. We got the 750cc injectors in today so those will be installed along with a bigger intercooler. Still waiting on clutch, but that wont really matter untill we are making over 400whp/tq. Will post up dyno sheet once i get it emailed to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

240zip Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 nice build-up. If you've got the means, I see no issue with getting a built car. Seems it was just a starting point. Post some video footage of the car some time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
