Looking real nice mate love the way it sits those rims look good too. I think vz SS tail lights would really top it off but I may be a bit bias there haha.

Can't wait to see the charger all done man keeping a keen eye on this one!

A whole year, damn I'm slack. So the Procharger never happened in the end. Life just gets in the way. But then eventually you get a break and awesome things start to happen.

She still looks purdy

Rebuilt the top end. Got some lifter noise and couldn't take it any more. Got the heads cleaned up and whacked in some PAC1219 so I can get some revs out of her. Bottom end was in satisfactory condition.

Reconditioned the stoppers cause stopping is very important

This is an Eaton M122 as part of a kit made by WASP for LS1/2. WASP consist of a guy in Melbourne who likes to design and build boosted solutions and a clever bloke in Shoalhaven who makes them work. They are non-intercooled and use a water/meth/glycol injection system.

So after a number of hold ups, bad injection nozzle and faulty sensors the tune was completed. I'm happy with the numbers for the first stage of this build. We pushed it to 330rwkw but the intake temps just got too high so I ended up with a safe 308rwkw and a smidge under 800nm @ 10psi. She's lots more fun to drive now :)

Massive weekend but two more items crossed off. Fitted some 4 to 1 tuned length headers (Empire Performance) and a twin 3" exhaust (Xforce). Great fitting kit although it's waaaay louder than I anticipated hahaha...
