Epic build. Need some pics of the car!

[Hillclimb]

Yes it's me Jason
If people in Oregon or Washington
knew what I was building I would be
more worried about thieves and naysayers.

This is top secret but do any of you remember Kevin black?
He had the 16v turbo mk1 scirocco. I found one of his friends
Who bought the drag car, he is selling me the orange crush turbo
Type in orange crush scirocco on YouTube

It's a t4 t61 .70 a/r turbo by Turbonetics.
He had brand new custom turbines built to upgrade it and never installed them
Which I will also get with turbo.

The new turbines installed would make it a t4 t66 .82 a/r Turbonetics (600-1000hp)
I've made a deal to get the turbo, extra turbines,50mmwastegate, oil feed lines, manual boost controller,

I'm gonna try and get his Vw motorsports steering wheel too

I picked up a new water pump with metal impeller
Some new digi1 injector cups until I ditch the rocco intake
An optima battery
K&n hp3001 is the only oil filters I use from a diesel rabbit application

And I got a t3 to t4 adapter out of cast iron

Here are pics of the turbo and turbines from the crush

Epic build. Need some pics of the car!

There are pics of it on the first page
I'll get more when it's sunny
It still needs windows, pedal cluster, 02a mounts, 02a or 02j trans,
Shift box, eurovan actuator, I also need another seat,
need to run brake lines, need to run fuel lines,
Swap in wiring for entire car
When I'm done this will be street legal race car so it can be driven
To shows and the track

And I need 2 more calipers from a g60.
Also need to find a nice radiator
Less than 26" wide & all metal

No joke I'm building a Ferrari,lambo killer :)
I raced a zr1 a few years ago at rolling speed ,
i would like a rematch when I'm done
