I compression tested my motor after I parked it for the season to see how it held up...
160psi, 160psi, 150psi, 140psi :-( . It was 185psi on all 4 prior to turbo. I thought it seemed like it was getting slower as Scott's Cobra gave me a run for my money from a 40 roll on 12psi the other night. So much for suspension/chassis mods this winter... fresh engine and moar bewst to come...

Fuck you guys, can I come cry too? :cry:

When you say fresh motor I hope that doesn't mean, fresh stock motor? I'm sure you could get away with a fresh set of new pistons drop that CR a little and a good set of rings, nice HG and some studs. Then more BOOOST.

8.8 low comp motor is what I'll build and I'd like to see 400whp from it. Money comes slow these days so it may be several months before I have money for all the supporting mods so I'd hope to have a new engine in by late spring/early summer 2010.

If I had power goals anywhere in the 300's i'd definitely do a fresh stock motor with an oil cooler and piss on it all day. These motors are durable.


For now, she sits in a storage unit somewhere in Austintown...
