Do you like the dom 3.0?

Yes it is a good turbo. Quick spool for a larger turbo and ball bearing construction and good support. It is one of those time tested turbos like FP and ATP. It supports around 400-450 whp with ease and is good for daily drivers.

Went out for a little run yesterday before I stored her away. Got the car detailed and then it rained lol when I put her away I had to clean her again hah

and when I put her away..

 

[Alin]

Storage time already?!

 

[evans609]

Storage time already?!

Yea lol next week could be a chance of snow in the night. Plus I would prob only have it out 2 weeks in November so rather then pay insurance for that month I put it away early

 

[Alin]

We have a chance of snow too. it sucks especially if youre on summer tires. :lol:

My injectors came in yesterday
Unwrapping it. Rallysport does excellent wrapping and fills the box with paper lol

In the pretty box

Deatschwerks advertising their in tank fuel pumps. No need already have one lol

Forgot all about this forum for returning stock/oem injectors for cash. Awesome!

And the injectors with the Bosch core and adapters included.

Why thanks you sir greatly appreciate it

 

[evans609]

​But here is what I came in to.

You can see the ewg setup below the table in the next pic lol better pics coming soon.

 

[evans609]

Now for the engine. I've never seen an engine blow so bad! She had a fully supported 20g setup. Brand new short block from subaru but it wasn't built in any way. Only thing we can figure is the bearing seized cause the rod to extremely heat up and let go.


Here is the rod up through the block

Next is pics of the top of the piston blown into about 8 big pieces and a lot of other small ones lol

You can see the rod right up though the piston when we removed some of the pieces

And then we took the piston out. Crazy lol

That's all right now. Prob won't be updated for a while other then to upload some pics of the ewg setup but who knows.

 

[Alin]

Dude! That damaged engine!!!! :shock:

Destroyed the shirt block but didn't leave a mark on the heads lol lucky in that aspect

 

[IGOTASTi]

That left a big mark.

 

[evans609]

That left a big mark.

Haha yea made a little peep hole there on the block to make sure everything is running smooth lol
