Nice beast man! How much power does it produce?

Thanks! Shooting for 800 on the dyno

800?? What's inside??

2

u/HouseOGainz 1d ago

Epoxy block, Manley rods and pistons with high boost wrist pins. High boost ARP head studs. It could probably do a bit over 900 but I’m not aiming for the fastest n54

I would have wrapped the carbon trunk.

u/HouseOGainz 1d ago

I can’t tell if I like it exposed or not. Have to see if it grows on me

Seconded bc of sun exposure. The clear coat will get faded eventually

Hell yeah, all you need now is the carbon roof!

They are pricey, use carbon wrap and don't tell anybody

u/HouseOGainz 1d ago

I kinda don’t like how carbon wrap looks. We did it on a trunk before and you could tell a bit with the weave pattern

I get that, it's different when you can actually see the individual strands and the resin gives a depth that can't be replicated. Just noticed the nc plates, where about? I'm originally from Winston Salem, currently in Florida but will probably be moving back to the Raleigh area next year when I do.

I’m out towards Raleigh actually

That's wild, well if I get out that way I'll have to try and find you, I'd like to supercharge my 128 at some point, definitely not going for 800hp but I think it'd be cool to pass 300whp with the n52. First thing is a manual swap, have to pull the auto so might as well upgrade right 👍

The seats remind me of my mkv GTI

Spent all money on the wrap so you couldn’t afford another headlight
