So I was a bit bored so I thought I would chuck my car up here as well.

So after 7 years of hard labor this is where I am at with the big girl now....

The motor has been setup to handle 20psi with:
Custom Forged pistons by special piston services.
Block has been decked bored and honed and o-ringed.
Crankshaft has been chriogenicly treated and nitrided.
The rods have been chriogenicly hardened and shot peined.
Custom copper head gasket. (8-1 Comp)
Head has been cc'd shaved lots of porting and polishing and bigger valves.
High volume oil pump.
Crow Cam 519.
570cc injectors with Bosch 044 supplying fuel.
All Balanced..
Currently running snort stage 4 turbo kit
Ebay American made beanie great beanie works well
Heat wrap and shields covered in heat wrap to try and keep temps down a bit.
Snort Polished Plenum.
68mm Throttle Body.
Front Mount Intercooler.
2.5inch redback exhaust system
Battery moved to boot.
The motor is controlled by a Microtech LT10s installed and tuned by Daltons Automotive in Geelong.
it also has twin stage electronic boost control, speco boost, water and oil gauges.
5 speed manual
9 inch 4.11's LSD
18 inch ANZ tycoons
UPC Big brake kit
Custom Interior seat covers door trims roof lining led dash conversion the works.
Custom Sloxr6 Roof lining
Clarion Touch Screen DVD Player Alpine splits up front and Alpines in the rear.

Current power is 200rwkw
Booked in for a tune on Monday expect at least 300rwkws otherwise she is all going to scrap

Current plans are too sell the car or if I can get around it or get no interest I will keep it :yahoo: tidy the engine bay up more think it needs a bit more bling (eg polished overflow tank polished panel along the front of the motor like Phat EL ) Get all that sorted then she is off to get a new paint job. Other than that not sure where I can go from there think I have nearly covered everything any ideas welcome.

So there you have it this is where my pride and joy is up to.
Opinions and comments welcome let me know what you think

hey man, nice xr you got there.
she should be able to pull 300rwkw's easy, i bet she gets up and goes pretty good.
if you do get rid of it what car will you get to replace it, another turbo falcon?
i also love your seays and roof lining, looks great

Very, very nice EF you have there Slo

A lot of well thought out mods there, especially liking the 4.11 equipped 9 inch diff.. How do you ever manage to get traction, with a 5 speed, 4.11's and boost? Thats a killer combo

Sounds like this thing will f**k hammer after the tune is done mate, watching with interest. Awesome!!

yeah the only car I will be getting is probably a BF wagon will just put some rims on it lower and that all that will be done cant go flying around anymore with the new little one.

Yeah traction will be a big issue but that will be half the fun

Ok so I dropped her off at Daltons today

So what are the bets on power when I get her back?

I am gunna go with well hope for 318rwkws

I'll say 245rwkw. Your trying to f@rt through a straw with the 2.5" exhaust. It will hold the car back massively.

I would say well hope it will be over that before the new motor Chris was pritty confident it would make that with just a proper tune without raising boost and better flowing motor

Why did u do so much prep work to the standard rods when for a little more cash u would of went H beam with ARP2000 rod bolts???

Cause I didn't do it brought the motor as a whole.

Any results yet slo???

i agree with you on that, id get a 4" dump pipe and a single 3.5", that would give it heaps of flow like my mates ef. it will spool up alot quicker with a bigger exhaust aswell

No results yet they didn't get time to put it on the dyno today so I am still waiting.

I talked to Daltons about that today they seem to think it would be ok. They said if I was real worried I could go 3 inch but they don't think I should go any bigger

Ok so a bit of an update with a few set backs had all the pipes blow of the plenum first then they couldn't figure out what was going wrong with the power and figured out I had a blocked cat so while it was there I told them to put on a full 3 inch they told me they were gunna do the whole exhaust for $550

So now what are your guesses on power.
