Current pics of the engine bay and new wheels.
You will notice the Aquamist jets are now sealed off to eachother. I removed the Water Meth system prior to the E85 knowing I would not need it anymore.

Very nice, I love the wheels.

Reminds me of the 17g Beast for some reason

I love it. You got this car for $900?

inperfectdarkness · 08-24-2008, 07:15 PM

if he bought that vr4 for $900...i'm amazed (and butt hurt.

)

the engine alone was sold for more than that.

Import Power · 08-24-2008, 07:19 PM

No I didn't buy it for $900, but then again, what I bought it for didn't change what the engine was worth

i never said it should.

but if you got the car in that shape (engine wise) for ~$900...i'm shocked.

you usually can't even touch a 1st gen tt in decent condition for <5k.

I'm anxious to see how many miles you get out of this engine before it gives up the ghost. Is your EBC always going to be set for 30 psi?

Yeah, not going to push her over 30psi for now. Maybe if I am thinking about rebuilding I may, but for a daily driver 30psi 707AWHP and 620AWTQ is enough for me.

The 50 Trims are nowhere near their limit yet. So maybe in the future I will push it. For now I am going to just enjoy it. Currently oil pressure is still nice and high, just like new. As it should be.
