    So here goes again. Originally I just wanted a solid 3.4 setup as far as engine mods go. But I recently bit the bullet on a gen V set up. Gen V w/zzp mps hub,portem LIM, N*w/ adapter, LQ4 custom intake, and sensor pigtail adapters.



    Once my taxes get back il be picking up an inctercooler as well. Im leaning towards the phenolic core ones that are being sold on here. If anyone has any input on them, or an others it would be greatly appreciated! Im gonna peice everything together rather than buying a kit. Most likely will get the 3" thick fmhe from frozen boost.

    So I decided Im gonna take a stab at polishing the blower. I figure I have quite a bit of time before I start the actual swap so I can chip away at it until then. And even if I botch the sh!t out of it Ill just paint it. But so far I think its going pretty good. I would never attempt this without a die grinder tho haha

    Just foolin around with idea of how hard its gonna be


    Just sanded with 100,220,330 then 1000 for a few minutes each to see what it could look like in spot. I have since gone back over it and got rid of almost all the little scratches in the shiny part.












    I came accross this, and wasnt really sure what its for. Im sure some type of serial number or something? Anyone know?



    And as of 4am friday night this is where shes at so far





    Ill be doing a write up for it once im done. Im trying to take as many pics as possible through out each step. This is after just 100 grit sanding as much as I could get at with a die grinder sanding disks and a few other bits, and hand sandind to smooth out as much as I could with 100 grit. still alot of work to go, but its slowing getting there.
