The Build
Well my car finally gave up. Spun a rod bearing January 12, 2008. Underwent a transplant. Had a 95 Spare and swaped that in. Removed Balance shafts and cleaned up the engine bay a bit.
My spare engine thats going in for the transplant.


Heres one upgrade. 4" Intake Pipe before and after my polishing work.
Intake Manifold before and after.

Exhaust manifold Heat shield before and after. The before pic is partially polished so you can see the difference.

Here my new Beauty. FP3052 Ball bearing turbo. You can see the size differences. First the Factory T-25 than the Evo 3 16G I sold and finally the FP3052.

FP3052 Before and after. I polished the compressor cover.
The spare 95 Engine redone. Balance shafts removed.

Here is the finished setup. Left and right views.

Turbine O2 Housing wrapped. Right before the Silicone coating for added protection.

My Engine bay with the bad 98 Engine on the left and on the right my 98 engine bay with the redone 95 engine.


My 1060cc/min (100.89 Lbs/Hr) injectors with flow chart.

My Engine setup almost complete and a peek of my new Vertical flow FMIC. All cooling fins are completely exposed to the air flow. The end tanks are the only things hidden behind bumper.

Heres what the old FMIC looked like...

DONE!
