Integroid's Legacy GT Wagon

Thanks breel for patching my exhuast

I am not launching this car until I get the 6 speed in!

 

BTW- Doug said the torque was purposedly tuned low. He was scared the tranny would grenade.

 

Congrats Eddie!!

That's badass, and I'm sure it's more than fun even with the "torques" turned down

 

well hurry up and get the parts for the swap.

 

Sick numbers man!

The only curse id have applied is the same curse that apply's to everyone man lol, murphy's law is a bitch 24/7. Awesome job avoiding this time.

 

Pansy.....:rofl:

Question....what do you have to do for your rear diff on the Legacy?

 

Swap in the R180 I have in the trunk when I get the 6 speed put in

 

NICE. So you are having to use Spec B axles?

 

yes

 

<legacygt.com AND Chuck Norris humor ON>
Yes, but the Spec B axles are almost as strong as Chuck Norris
<legacygt.com AND Chuck Norris humor OFF>


I hope you can keep the car together, since you are now looking at close to triple the designed HP spec from the factory. Stay away from the dragstrip- LOL.

 

Like I said on FB, anxious to see some uninhibited 6mt numbers. Good god!

 

Well, the race fuel is gone now so back to my pump gas map I took it out for lunch and scared the crap out of a co-worker. He said his neck hurts now

 

Awesome.

 

Meth = 110 octane on demand.

 

great job man, sounds like a beast!! and I thought milo's old car was stupid fast.... Way to go!! Congrats again!! I love stupid fast sleeper wagons..... WAGONS RULE!!

 

I cant wait until I have passengers sign a waver to take a ride.
very nice indeed, I want a ride.

 

LOL....465 whp is still stupid fast for the street

 

i concur

hurry up and put that 6 speed in and join us at the strip in a month

 

Congtas, even though we never met but I have heard plenty about your car, those are some sick numbers.


Please install 6speed, pour in some vp import and let the torque numbers soar =]

 

I am hoping to have the 6 speed in there for the race next month. Retarded Monkey Racing FTW!

 

To bad I'm moving. I could hire you to get me some new patients! :rofl:

 

i want a wagon.

 

HOLY SHAT.....awesome results Eddie. Big congrats to everyone who worked on the car. Def a monster and wagon on top....car porn.

If u don't mind, how much did the total build cost come out to be?

 

I have no idea to be honest with you. I was just buying parts when I found good deals on them. I had almost a complete motor in my server room at work so my wife wouldnt find it I am sure it was less than any shop would have done it for. Doing your own research and buying your own parts can save you a lot of money. The problem is you have to do your homework....The cams are the only thing I regret in my build. If I had to do it over, I would have either gotten the more agressive BC cams or the GSC cams.

 

Can't speak for Eddie, but I'm in a similar situation and I know my build cost. Engine built similar to Eddie's at Ball engine, Ball racing turbo setup (though Eddie pieced his together for a little less) and tune (though I went AEM) and my cost is over $10k.

btw, GSC cams FTW. I'm making almost the same power on you on pump and everybody's contributing it to the cams. GSC 272/272, and I picked up about 20-30 more whp than anybody thought, and that's on the stock exhaust manifold.

and from what I've heard, stay away from BC cams...apparently their valve train is awesome, but their cams...not so much

P.S. I want a ride on racegas...or not, b/c then i'm going to have to drop the money as well

 

I would have been really close to the 500whp mark i bet if I had an AEM I was getting a lot of phantom knock from the stock ecu

 

you'll have the best 0-60 in any parking deck!

 

^^^
I challenge that

and that's why i went w/ AEM...tired of the bullshit stock ECU pulling timing at 400+whp

 

damn thats awesome Eddie..Congratz!

 

600whp its the new black

 

Agreed, jumping on deals when they come up and doing butt loads of research before buying is way to go. If I don't end up selling my WRX, i am gonna be in the same boot early next year. Ball engines seems to have done great job on both engines. :rofl: @ keeping it in server room and hiding it from the wifey. I have been reading up both your's and Drews build and learned a good bit from both builds. Thanks for sharing.

 

What part of the build are you talking about? Just the motor? It would be really hard to put a number on the complete build since I kept adding to what I already had.

 

Instead of asking how much many have paid why don't you call the shops and get a quote

Many times deals are given and such and those deals shouldn't be repeated.

 

Update!

Just got a call from Andy to tell me the 6-Speed is in! but he tells me I have 6 reverse gears and one forward gear. Will have to figure out that one later

wOOt!

Tks to

KING for letting me bug him all weekend

Mike and Rick for letting me "borrow" a part yesterday.

Brandon for the R180

Lisa for the rear seals and all the other parts I had to get in.

Topspeed for the clutch

Of course Andy and Mike from sargent performance!

Now just need to get some miles on it before the weekend so I can launch the car at the strip

 

no...it would be almost every vendor in Atlanta

I like to distribute my money

 

Isn't Sargent in Sugar Hill? Come by the house on your way home!!

 

Nah, my car is in Acworth right now

Mike lives in Sugar Hill though

Come out to the drag race this weekend in Commerce. I think Tom Patton is coming up as well. It will be like the good olde days except I will have a much faster car this time

 

6 Speed is broken in...just worried about the clutch not being broken in. Hell, the last time I raced up at commerce, I put a clutch in the night before and it held up fine

 

quit your bitchin and drive

 

i concur completely!

 

I tried racing every focus I passed today, do you think they are intimidated by my urban camo paint job?

 

Well, I got the car back today and I will say the clutch is a dream. Will ahve to get use to the constant shifting of the 6-speed. Andy did a great job fixing the 6-speed and getting her in.

The Bad News - On my way home I get a call from my sister in-law and she was very frantic. She told me to pack up the family and start heading up to Nashville. My father in-law lost his battle with colon cancer today. So I am up in Nashville now and for the rest of the week with my family. This means I will not be racing this weekend. Sorry to all the people that has helped get my car to where it is at now. I was really anxious to get up to commerce again and race. I will be heading down to Reynolds on 05/02 instead.

 

Sorry to hear that... Hope all is well as it possibly can be given the circumstances. I want to ride in this beast soon!

 

Sorry to hear about your father in law, there will be other days to race

 

family is first, this family will be here and wait for ya

 

Your family is way more important than something as trivial as a car. Spend the time with them and be there for the wife and kids.

 

Man Eddie, sorry to hear about that. Give everyone our condolences.
