I agree to, i like the more stealth approach. After all Californiadad, you wouldn't want anyone thinking it's anything other than a 1.8

Yeah I like DadsDB8 the most so far. if anything a cop will see that and think , its a responsible DAD driving the car and not a little street racer.

You could always slap a "Baby on Board" sticker on the bumper for the responsible dad look.

Just wanted to say your build thread has been a tremendous resource for me during my
1st engine build! It has really taken the guess work out of something i know very little
about. Seems like the manuals like helms only scratch the surface of many topics leaving
more to be desired.

Currently rebuilding my b18c1, I should be dropping the block off at the machine shop
tomorrow for a resurface, bore and hone


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Also would like to mention the Evans Tuning GSR youtube series. Another excellent
resource to the community.





Thanks guys for all your hard work and time you put into the creation of
these walkthroughs, they have been a huge help.

I made it to page 27 and skipped the rest. Sorry my eyes started to glow red and burn. How did build number 2 go? Hope you made your power goal with that GE block.

Thats cool I owned an 2004 G35 that I built with a vortec supercharger with 515RWHP. It was fun with the 6speed transmission. But sad to say my current 4dr DB8 would smoke my old G35.
