Thanks for keeping me updated Kevin. Looking forward to seeing the final result. I see is it nice and toasty in Phoenix at the moment. At least my car is warm

Cheers,

Ben

 

BLK, it is a very nice piece and was finished recently...trial by fire you might say. This is the same unit with the same specs as the one in Joetwints 231 mph TX mile car, so it should be adequate for my needs. You are correct all the lines in the tank have been upgraded/enlarged. The feed lines are new and I recall John saying that fuel safe corrugated line is ungodly expensive as well.The nice part is completely intank...nice and clean. It has its own Bosch relay as well with a plug and play harness to the car.....

 

So, I haven't been around in awhile...

Was watching Supercars Exposed and saw Joe's beast (congrats to Joe and Il Monstro!) and figured I'd stop back in on the 6spd monsters. Here I see Kevin going to the dark side (said with all love and respect, honestly) and building his beast up. That transporter is amazing Kevin. And I wish you and the Evo guys all the best on what looks to be yet another amazing project.

Glad to see you guys are still pushing the envelope.

 

ahh , should have told me I would send you a set of these puppies I had made...

left is aftermarket vs stock on right....

 

Glad to see your back... you have to respect the DARK SIDE, but then again maybe we were on the dark side

 

I AM your father( insert heavy muffled breathing here)

 

Mark, those pics you sent were very impressive. I guess this isnt rocket science after all. Waiting patiently for the unveiling

 

Thanks Ben, I havent been around much recently myself, I just got back in the swing of things a few weeks ago. So far so good Things certainly have changed a bit in your absence, dont be a stranger. Kevin

 

Kevin, looks great. Can't wait to see you driving and grinning ear to ear.

are you going to get yourself a set of the nice Evoms IC's.

 

Dennis, we will see about the ICs. I have the Blown6 and have some doubts as to their quality and effectiveness but to just swap them out at this point will be a waste of money, and I am running out of money to waste. If the EVO crew tells me we are having issues with elevated IATs when the car is tuned and datalogged we will address that issue at that point. I know the EVO ICs will go the distance since Joe ran them just fine in TX and I am going to be nowhere near his power levels. I should know rather quickly what , if anything, needs to be upgraded. The car is leaving EVO finished! They are even doing some suspension pancake bearings on the front to get rid of the JIC popping noise from coil bind at extreme lock, plus an alignment and corner balance.....

 

[subscribed] good luck KPG, appreciate the help.

 

Hey Kevin, Do you think it will make more or less than the power levels you expected from your UMW STAGE 4? Trying to play devils advocate here...Can't wait to she what she does.

 

What kind of question is that? Stage 4 had all the potential in the world. It would have been a benchmark if it ever ran in anger, but I lost faith...no harm , no foul.
I think people like Deepblue and Prsche951 should pick up the stg4 banner and run with it...
As for power, what am I going to compare it to? My car hasnt been tuned yet. Comparing two setups that have not produced any numbers would be the definition of bench racing, I would be run off 6speed.....

PS, dont be so nasty it was only 2100$ more... you are saving a bunch on transportation costs!

 

Don't get me started about the *&^%%^&* CLUTCH arrrgh ...you really know how to poke somebody .

if Prsche951 & Deepblue have the patience why not... I would love to see someone finish it.

 

got it. Sounds like you will be rolling very soon now. Is the car going to tow the semi trailer back??
