It's 80mm. Should work for street driving and getting some base line tuning done. When the LQ4 lets go, I'm building a Dart LsNext block with more stroke to replace it. That one will be getting a 120mm turbo... That engine is being built with all billet parts, should take 55+ lbs of boost on methanol... I'm also working on a chromoly chassis for the Nova so it can handle 2500+ hp a little better.Holy mother, thats 3 times the size of mine lol
Man, those new GTI's look better than the old ones. My Audi TT is on the list for a TDI swap, waiting for some euro parts and to finish a few other projects first.
My Nova minus drivetrain. Doing a little rust repair and cleaning a few things up before I get down to business...
Let me know when you're ready to race....
And my daily driver....

Sounds like fun, street or strip? 1/8 or 1/4? I like to make people follow me for 10 miles or so before we race since mine is a "street" car.Let me know when you're ready to race....

E85 isn't bad. Makes as much or more power than C16 with the right set up...
1/4 mile only. It's pure strip. Not even remotely close to street legal.
I've got to keep it detuned to keep from breaking 150mph in the 1/4 mile. If I break 150mph NHRA rules says that I have to install an on-board fire extinguisher system and a parachute.
The NHRA and their cage rule changes put me on the street. Of course there are outlaw tracks... My chromo strut/4-link chassis is getting closer though. Hopefully next year I will be able to make drag week.
The chute I have. It's nice if you get loose going to the brakes on the big end.

I'm gonna have to start hiding my keys. I found this on my dog's facebook page... out joyriding in my Jeep:
