One year after "Great SS-Four rebuild" (http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=78088) was finished I left my car in my mechanic's hands again to start fourth and final stage of my car's build. Goal has two parts:
a) check everything on the car after 12 months b) just slightly push car higher in terms of power (+20%) When I have my car back I plan just add some "unnecessary weight" and DONE! All finished. It has begun! What I can share now with is just the most important - new parts ready to install Bigger injectors... Bigger - custom build/modified - turbine (enlarged housing, enlarged wastegate, polishing, etc...) stay tuned...

Cant want to see this one all done Me to . This must end one day ooh this is gonna be good.. Thanks mate! I can't wait for the dyno results In fact this is not much hunt for more (or even max) power. As I said expected gain is like 20% (so get to rounded 400HP what is not much for setup I have). For me this is more about gaining durability of engine and eliminate any possible risk of failure. For example what made me shocked is fact that turbine had plastic bearings???!!! PLASTIC! Can you believe this is an standard for turbine capable up to 500HP??? That engine must keep working under all circumstances and be reliable for my favorite long trips. Anyway. This time will dyno happen without my presence so no pictures or videos as last time . -------------------- No more replicas... This is evolution... This is SS-four :)
