Dear lord!!! You planning to run awd with this setup? From what I've read the drive train is weak after 300 or so. If anyone can do it you can!! Keep it up
Yes still running RT4wd drivetrain, Im currently making 370hp and have done so for the last 30,000 miles. I think the upping the power really will not affect the reliability all that much. The drag starts are not going to be any more harsh, Im also keeping the same turbo size. the added power should just help with top speed if you thinking in terms of 1/4mile times. I expect to get at least 1/2 sec off the the best 1/4 mile time of 12.2, of course Im hoping for a little more though...
Getting ready to change to the other engine, I needed to DEQ the car because the new engine has a bizzy 3.6 and I don't think I could pass emissions standards.
So passed with flying colors with the old engine that has a crower stage 2 turbo cam!!
back from the dead. i went through page 1-12 and i must of missed the engine setup? what internals are you running? im building a z6 for boost. looking for that 350 range just as you and the old lady are. ive followed this build before i was even a member!

I love the stance of your wagon! I want to get mine just a tiny bit lower, but going for around the same power as you. Did you do anything to the driveshaft to handle the power? Have you had any problems out of the rt system with this power? Do you daily this also? And do you have an Instagram hah xD sorry for all the questions.

Thanks, The driveline is all stock, Never had any issues with the drivtrain, yes the wagon is a daily driver!! We did do the VIP Performance rear diff bushing modd, this modd eliminates the shock in the driveline and transfer case, its only $50 shipped for the bushing you can call the shop anytime and order them.
Yes, They hold up very well if the tune is done correctly, there are guys that have made 600whp with stock sleeves, we have made 530whp with a GT3076r turbo and stock sleeves and 33psi.

Good deal! And yeah I already did that mod a year ago, followed your build thread actually hah! It defiantly feels a lot better after it!
