Damn, quite clean. Nice job.

Nice to see another 5858 on here but 1.6 + short runner irtb + long tube manifold = spool before shift maybe.

I'm pretty sure the fronts with those ccw wheels would clear the autokonexion aero fenders.

Mr. Mattman

Street car with cage and barely any padding gives me a facial tick. Pad that stuff.

Mr. Mattman

only myself was in the car. I kept the upper halo bar padded next to my head. but that was all. Cage is out for powdercoating currently. Also I never planed on having a 6pt. but couldn't pass up a $300 harddog lol

You must hate money. When it's done, will it be driven or is it a trailer queen for shows?

Mr. Mattman

Its not a trailer queen by no means. It will be driven hard as it should. Its only been on a trailer (while in running form) once to go to north carolina and back only because it was myself and 4 people riding with me.

Mr. Mattman

Got an update of my new ccws Centers are headed to the powdercoaters.

So time to see if this can beat 320whp?

Mr. Mattman

that's a steep goal. relax man its only a 1.6 lol. But no I don't have the motor im building machined yet. I only have the mockup motor (blownup) in the car currently

It's an inside joke but that's the goal for a 1.6 at the moment i believe.

Awesome build. I always wanted to do an itb/turbo setup but from what I've read tuning is a huge pain. How did you go about the tuning?
