Project Imola Beast

[sfored]

I almost never post on AZine but I have been spending more time on the classifieds etc but I wanted to share and get feedback from you guys as well.

Danny at FI (FastIntentions)is doing an amazing job on my car and I am hoping he is reading this ;) (*stroke - stroke*)



The car:
01 - Imola - 6spd

Engine:
Built motor: Rods, Pistons, Cams, Springs, Retainers (Stock Valves - too many too $$), Port polish etc.

Turbos:
Innovative Custom Setup based on T3/T4 setup

Engine Management:
Autronics SM2

Tranny: Stock with center diff. Clutchmasters stage 5 - twin disk clutch..
etc. etc.



NOW onto the IC - I am thinking about either the ER's or 2 small side mounts from turbonetics liquid to air in the stock location.
Any thoughts ? Suggestions ?

That looks like a hellova project you have going there. Keep us updated please

*Subscribed*

I know someone who has an ER FMIC thats ready to sell, although slightly used.

[sfored]

do you know why he is selling ?

I am very interested.. PM me please amosisoglu@gmail.com

[AudiA4_20T]

Well Liquid to air are the best cooling you can get but are more expensive and harder to mount... the ERs are also nice you can't really go wrong with them

o and how much are you shooting for? Id say 500-600whp? O and please tell me youll take it to the track and put down some awesome #s as well

[sfored]

the setup "should" do minimum 600-700 whp; the turbos are good for 450 to 550 each. IF spooling does not become too much of an issue .... well... we'll see...

When you say track .. do you mean road course ? or drag ?

Drag - I will definitely do. Road course... not sure if 1000 hp is a road course car but ... like I've said before.. we'll see...

[AudiSportB5S4]

my '00 S4 with giac chip and some fancy samco hoses will take you right now........ the way it is, not put together !!! hahahaha... looks awesome love the color, that thing will be a beast and a half. good job !

[EUROTEK//S4]

[TRANS4M]

that is like an evil big brother to my car!

[nizmosx]

FI does incredible work, but they sure take a long time to finish .hahahaha

[sfored]

good things come those that wait........................n wait .................n wait...........n.....I hope

[europshhrc279]

god damn..thats a crazy setup youve got going on...you must post pics and vids when its all done..good luck!

[enigma1406]

I saw your car there when I went and got the exhaust put on my car. I wanted it.

[EUROTEK//S4]

what kinda upgrades are need for a setup like this ? suspension and drivetrain ...

[RAyala2.7T]

great project you have going there!!! how do you feel about the exhaust downpipes being in the position they're in? would that be excessive heat on top of the heads?

[KamiLos]

looking sick bro.. can you share the specs on the parts?

[AudiA4_20T]

what do you mean? Coilovers and a clutch should do it.. Maybe he rebuilt the tranny but don't think your TIP tranny can handle it

[sfored]

too many to list .. do you have a q on any particular item ?

JE Pistons
Pauter Rods
ARP Head Bolts - not studs
Port n Polish done by FlowWorks

Turbos are .36 A/R with the sickest wheel you'll find on the street.

lots of time and love..

looking sick bro.. can you share the specs on the parts?

[Cactus00S4]

u should put ram air ports in each headlight, cut out the low beam section and put it there, and then just use the projectors only, that would look SICK!!! dueal ram air rite into those monsters, does the hood fit over those babies???

[marfcus]

I think you should go with the ER side mounts or ASP front mount and go with a water/meth setup. If the side/front mount doesn't work out sell them then go with the air/water cooled if you can find room for it in the engine bay I would think that the above mentioned ic's with w/m injection should perform just about on the same level as the a/w cooler no? Pretty gnar project

[sfored]

just pulled the trigger on side mount ERs..

[b5s4tt]

awesome, are you going to run side pipes ? or out the front bumper or stock to the rear of the car? looks great by the way cant wait to see it finished

[sfored]

back to a restricted exhaust...
with dumps

[Das General]

you should go straight 3.5" pipes all the way back. At least so it "looks stock"

Fuck cats n mufflers. They restrict too much.

[sean1.8t]

^strait 3" should be plenty large enough for those turbo's.

but im curious, are those turbo's DBB?? are you running external WG? and where did you get your manifolds/downpipes? custom built by fastintentions?

[revhards4]

.36 A/R...damn it should spool pretty goodthen, I was thinking they might be .48 and I thought they might come on full bore at around 5500...Alot of us including you may be surprised that this setup will be very streetable

[2001S4NY]

nice looking project, looks like one on my list. best of luck

[sfored]

I hope you are right ... I had the .48s then opted for the .36s because i wanted streetablity and SPOOL... Justin from Innovative hooked me up with some CRAZY internals as well.. I can't wait ...

[ms4cd]

Nice very nice!

[S4 Dan]

nice! looks like some pretty quality work.... how long has this project been going for? good luck man... keep us updated, it'll be interesting to see for sure.... hope everything turns out as good as it looks like its going to

[Clay @ Kinetic]

What are the turbo specs?

compressor wheel trim
turbine wheel
turbine housing size

[sfored]

not keeping it secret or anything but I am really not knowledgeable if that area... Innovative Turbo is hooking me up with their goos stuff... I told them I am out to get the GT cars.. can we do it ? He said NO PROBLEM ;) ... I will put it to test...

[revhards4]

im sure they are 50 trims since the 50 trims have the BEST compressor map efficiency out there for smaller displacement motors, refering if your motor is built...1.5L per bank...

[ChumbaWumba]

does anybody know of any updates with this project??? anyone know the owner?

[JDM EJ1 95]

id like to see as well.


what happened to the ABS unit.. are you removing it completely?


you going to be running a maf? or speed density only?


and how tedious is the autronics installation/setup

oh and.. where will the wastegates be mounted.. i cant seem to find them.

[sfored]

well. .. I am about to get some more work on the car... the WG on the drivers side is mounted on the turbo and the other side on the piping to keep the heights symmetrical..



ABS - want to use it but not sure how it will work with Autronics..

Autronics - I bought the harness and SM2 from KTR - they had a single turbo conversion car.. I also bought and will install the 500R - CDI box as well..

[sfored]

owner is cool dude from socal
whom clearly has issues for having this car in "Project Mode" for the past ..almost 3 years..
