Chester the little S4 that could

[stuvy]

Well I finally broke something major. Took Chester to an ice-cross today and think I bitched a turbo. I've started tearing him apart to find the damage and then rebuild him bigger stronger faster.
I've been collecting parts to replace broken or failing stuff currently on the car. I have to install the new clutch, engine mounts, timing kit, nitrous fogger setup, rear sway bar.
I am going to be ordering turbos, downpipes (sold the set I bought) meth injection, and a couple misc items that are worn out.

I was able to pull some shitty mid-13 second quarter mile times with the slipping clutch last summer. Hoping to break into the 11s with proper turbos fuel and nitrous if needed. Also the car is being corner weighted and given a new alignment to help in the autocrosses and occasional track day.

doh! what turbos you going with? frankens?

Re: Chester the little S4 that could

I haven't decided yet. I really like the thought of using rs6-r's but they can easily window a block. Frankens are the front runner based on response and end result without the need for a new bottom end. They also have a good track record for reliability and price is fair on them.

Re: Chester the little S4 that could

You can window a block with any upgraded turbos if the fueling/software isnt done right... Those posts on AZ with blown motors all had some other major issues. Cost wise its tough to beat the Frankens or take the risk that the DXC-RS6X's are the same as the RS6-Rs. Nitrous is an interesting addition.. you dont see that on too many. I think JHM has a Nitrous manifold spacer..

Re: Chester the little S4 that could

JHM does not have a manifold spacer, thats for the 4.2l v8. They never followed through with the 2.7 designs from lack of intrest.
Tial 605s are laggy and not ideal for what I want to do.

Go Chester Go!

[stuvy]

Re: Chester the little S4 that could

I have ordered a few parts and will be ordering a few more on Monday.
I have settled on rs6-r from srm and jfonz. Going full stage 3, 3" down pipes and exhaust to compliment the exhaust. I have a few other minor things coming also.
Aiming to hit 11's without nitrous, which I have too.
