No, he got into an accident.

My hood latch failed and messed up the roof, i had some damage from a previous accident so i just filed 2 claims and got enough money to fix and paint the whole car including doorjams.

It is taking a while though, but i think the shop is being very anal about everything and it should look better than new when i get it back.

Progress is looking good, just sucks waiting...

by **Wang2k** » Wed Aug 09, 2006 3:34 pm

i am finally at peace with the waiting. I probably wont drive my car much when i get it back because ive gotten used to it. When i started throwing money at the car i had goals and ive almost got everything off my list. im still doing the Paxton though, but ive got most of that worked out already :evilbat:

i am gonna get it running at a meek amount of boost(the neo being the limiting factor) then tune out those kinks(

) while saving up for the TEC3R

The intercooler mounting is worked out. The piping will be done by the only shop in Arkansas that i have found to do respectable performance work(they have a mandrel bender, and build headers of all sorts, pipe turbos all the time, etc.) Its going to be powedercoated as well. At the time i do that they are going to fab me some huge headers and a new exhaust. I know i said i was almost done, but the research for what im doing it pretty much over. I have had the supercharger mounted to the engine turned by the stock belt system, with no slipping or malfunction of any kind. it is now only a matter of time.

can anyone say twincharged. i am shooting for 20psi total boost but wouldnt be ashamed of 18. I know the SC could push 30lbs easy.

by **Mandarinsolara** » Wed Aug 09, 2006 4:21 pm

im afraid the kazuma unit was rated to lose effeciency past 15psi.

i know somebody can back me up on this

by **Wang2k** » Wed Aug 09, 2006 6:20 pm

im hoping i can get around that a little by boosting the air to about 15psi on the Novi 2000 with a huge intercooler and run a 4psi pulley on the trd charger . If not i will pull off the TRD charger in favor of a stock intake manifold and 20psi on the novi.

ps

i think i smell a hater every time i read something you type. Im twincharging my car dude.
