    Default Vn Buick - Gn motor, gt35, vr calais dash and seats

    This is my vn think iv posted on here before but things have changed alot in the last 12months.
    after the vr motor i had in it started to knock due to poor engine tune, i removed it imported buick turbo pistons and con rods
    over the next 12 months this motor was built with mild heads, 40thou over bore all balanced mild heads, standard cam and a roll master chain.
    nice basic bottem end, smooth and good for boost.
    i used my old turbo set up which consists of a gt35/82R with a .70 compressor and 1.06 interal waste gate, 42lbs injectors 500hp intank pump, custom steam pipe manifolds, custom 3" dump pipe, and exhaust, 600x300 cooler and cooler piping done hot side at 2.5" and cool side 3" also used a turbo smart bov 2bar map sensor v8 throttle body with a custom delco chip, tune to run 12psi

    the insides are now vr dash, vs calais seats and door trims with wood grain

    the cars also got lowered springs, locked diff and an auto with all the bullshit done to it, was also resprayed in like 2005

    been through a few engine combos but seems to be at a place where im happy with it on 10psi off boost at the manifold 1st gear goes up at about 50-70km and then sometimes in to 2nd too. goes very well and am very happy with it.
    everything has been done by self excluding the respray.
    big thanks to delco wizard for doing the tune over the moon with it!
    future plans are 15-20psi and getting a custom tune done on my haltech E6GM then take it down the strip, original plan was to cut a mid 12 on street everything but will see how that works out...
    few pics from in my drive way with my vl berlina turbo daily.
