    Default My tiburon updated

    More pics page 2
















    Engine pic with plastic covers removed after being recently worked on and dynoed. Ran 242 whp on my best run. It's no 300+whp car but I'm happy with it especially since it starts around 150-ish whp factory.


    ENGINE:
    ALPINE SUPERCHARGER STAGE 1 (    aqua cooled, 4psi)
    NEXT GENERATION MOTORSPORTS 2.75'' SUPERCHARGER PULLEY (    raises boost to 6-7 psi with headers)
    290CC INJECTORS
    APEX'i SAFC-II
    NGK IRIDIUM SPARK PLUGS
    INJEN SHORT RAM INTAKE (    paired with AEM dryflow filter)
    DC SPORT V6 HEADERS
    ARK V6 DUAL EXHAUST
     YAYA FRONT AND REAR FULL POLYURETHANE MOTOR MOUNTS

    SUSPENSION/WHEELS:
    18'' BRONZE ROTA SUBZEROES WRAPPED IN TOYO PROXES
    ROAD RACE MOTORSPORTS FRONT AND REAR STRUT BARS
    EIBACH PRO KIT SPRINGS

    INTERIOR/ICE:
    ALPINE TYPE R SPEAKERS ALL AROUND
    JENSEN IN-DASH DVD HU
    RANDOM METAL ACCENTS
    DUAL PILLAR GAUGE POD
    PROSPORT BOOST GAUGE
    PROSPORT AIR/FUEL GAUGE
    "TUSCANI" SEAT BELT PADS
    "TUSCANI" METALLIC DOOR SILLS
    ALUMINUM PEDALS

    EXTERIOR:
    M&S "TYPE B" LIP KIT
    "KDM" BADGES (TUSCANI)
    TAIL LIGHT RED OUTS
    05 FACELIFT HEADLIGHTS
    600K HALO HID KIT
    SHORTY ANTENNA
    20% WINDOW TINT


    future plans:
    1) 6.5'' crank pulley (will raise to 8-9 lbs boost)
    2) methanol injection to keep it safe (should be safe on stock block)....
    3) maybe some CF parts, hood and hatch.
    4) get my fenders rolled so I can finally get those wheel adapters on that I have in my garage.
    5) hopefully find the funds to get the engine bay professionally painted so everything looks nice.

    I just want to get the engine plastics that come with the car painted. Those will cover most of the stuff around the edges of the engine bay. Other than that, the upper intake manifold has some scuffs, and I'd like the valve color to be painted as well. That's about it.

    thanks for the comments guys.

    I'll try to get some better pics when I get home. I'm in Shanghai right now. I was hoping to get some Canon lenses for cheaper price, but no luck on that.

    I remember that supercharged tiburon that blew up. Really nice actually. He was one of those first guys that really modded out the whole tib in our community.

    Black, widebody, shaved mirrors/wiper blades?

    242 whp on my best run at mainstream performance.

    That's with a conservative tune due to freakishly cold weather.

    I don't have the dyno sheet with me since I'm in China for 2 weeks.
