******The EV12....***************
Started this thread as this is a new stage in this project all the hype is over and now we are down to some hard core data.
All wiring is done, all systems go, this week turbo and exhaust work commence along with manifolds, this is the next stage. As of right now the engine has no turbos and cooling connected along with oil lines. Everything else is operational and functional.
- A Big thanks to Marcin over at Speedriven
for taking on this project without knowing where it was going to go. Marcin was very strapped with work so he assembled the bottom end of the engine in terms of oil pan configuration and manufactured the engine craddle along with engine mounts and making sure this monster fitted properly. Superb work as always from a top notch guy. Can't thank him enough. Once car is done, he will be flying in to NY and tuning this baby.
-I got a little impatient as I wanted this to move forward very quickly and picked up the car from Marcin to advance on the work, I brought it over to my tech in NY. I don't have the praise to give this guy. Nothing but class. A big thanks to him, (Jeffrey) he was in charge of wiring, coding, ECU adaptation and lastly turning the key on this beast. He will be doing the install of the oil lines and cooling once turbos have been installed. Big thanks Jeff!!!
-Lastly have to thank Rudy over at Rcompart for his help in answering some technical questions. Rudy is a master when it comes to SCN coding and such, thank you Rudy..
Ok on to the good stuff...
Sorry for the crappy videos and pictures but we will proceed and post more as it comes down my way. This engine only has some mini downpipes..thats it.
Moving her out of the Drive way... Sorry for the crappy videos.
