Engine pull

[Mantis]

After hours of work and not just a little frustration the engine is finally out. Big thanks to Jordan for coming by tonight and helping to separate the driveshaft and pull the engine with me. Now I can get to work on the TC, downpipes, exhaust, 02 sensors, new mounts, spider hose, and a couple of random things I broke while pulling it. Hopefully only looking at a couple of weeks downtime.

Re: Engine pull

What was the primary reason for the action, if I may ask?

[Mantis]

Re: Engine pull

primary reason is the TC, it is slipping under hard acceleration, giving me codes TCC stuck off. And yes turbo's are already K04, I just have to get the rest of the cars drivetrain healthy enough to handle full stage 3 power. Kyle those clips were forged by the devil

I hate to bust your bubble, Kyle, but I find those clips super easy

You just need to get the drive shaft out of the way and it's cake...

Oh come on Ryan, stop holding out, give some details

Re: Engine pull

Details, I am upgrading the TC by having the stall speed increased by 6-700 RPM, TCU going in for stage 3 software, lots of engine cleaning and then some painting, ceramic coat painting the downpipes after they have been gutted and staight piped. Exhaust is out so I will most likely do a custom catback employing a crossover x-pipe and magnaflow mufflers, considering 2.5" and 3"

Ryan we are DEFINITELY going to have to line our cars up... when... errr.... mine can actually be lined up. You running meth yet?

Re: Engine pull

yea he has meth.. everyone does.. i think i'm gonna put a meth kit in the spring too.. seems to really be rad

Re: Engine pull

Andrew, your full stage 3 will eat me alive, meth is great for keeping IAT's low, but it is no match for stage 3 powa. Still, let's line em up and see what happens. From what I hear yours should be purring again soon.

Re: Engine pull
