My own little DIY build thread, yay!

EDIT: Just read more of your fuckery...
You 'helped' build a 20G powered car? It needed antilag? What were the results of the build? 20Gs are so 1999. Thanks for making us former DSM guys look like dumbshits.

I went with Wiseco because they have lower compression (8.6:1) than the JE (9.0:1).
Wiseco pistons are better for higher boost applications, bigger turbochargers - I'll be running a Precision SC-50s turbocharger, 3" ss exhaust, 3" ss dp, equal length runner exhaust manifold, MS-I v3, 780cc injectors, more info will be in my thread - I'll start it soon.

Sweet, I called them this morning and they said that were shipped last friday, so hopefully I'll get them tomorrow or wednesday. But damn, I knew I should've bought those bel-fab ones, ohh well it's fine as long as I get mine and they work fine, I'm freaking sick and tired of waiting!
BTW I'm painting my vavle cover right now, don't know if I'll keep the color or not yet, I'll post pics in a little bit.

Small update, rods finally came today! Engine is already in the shop, now I have to wait for them to finish it up, might take a while too.
Right now deciding on what turbo/manifold to run, I'm choosing between begi tubular manifold + GT28rs, or ETD short tubular manifold + gt2871r either will be externally wastegated. I just can't make up my mind over this.
Also while I'm waiting for the engine I'll probably paint the car, I'll most likely go with just a fresh coat of white, I'll also paint the hood and hardtop.
