This thread is for whoever cares to follow along. I will be showing step by step of what is being done and will be posting lot's of pics. I will be doing things like blower porting,Cam install,Roller rocker install ect ect. So hopefully it will contain lot's of good info on a wide array of things.That's the point of the thread in the first place..
With the turbo build down the drain for personal reasons, I've decided to go all out with the m90 buildup. This will make it a lot easier on me because it will be almost 3000 dollars cheaper. It will be done right. So if someone see's me doing something wrong, Don't be shy to correct me,I only want to do this once.
I plan on setting the record whp for the IS3 Intense camshaft. The current record is 399 WHP set by Ted Quartana.He was using a gen 5 and Is3 heads.
The build will include the following new stuff,
L26 6000 mile engine
IS4 camshaft (.600/.601 with 1.6's)
Ported and polished heads w/ 1.9 1.57 valves
Gen 5 (Ported inlt & outlet w/sealed slits)
Yella Terra 1.6 roller rockers
65# mototron injectors
Comp Cams OE-R lifters
Mezere electric water pump
130# valve springs
ARP head studs
Retainers & locks
I'll update with the parts I get in as time goes.I plan on posting pics of everything that i'm doing along the way.
This is just some quick shots of the stock gen 5 before the porting.
These are some pics of the ported sc inlet and outlet. Probably will be painting it instead of powdercoating it also.
