Scott's Galant bout time i made one of these

[reiketsutsukigami]

mmkay so sadly i don't have many in progress pics but ill dig up the ones i have soon for now ill just do a quick runthrough of what I've done, what i want to do and what I'm currently doing.

Got the G back in 2009 right as I moved to mass. did the first few things everyone does CAI, coilovers, subs, headunit, roof mount tv,.......underbody neons, 17" excel rims, and a few other small mods. But there just wasn't enough get up and go in this car for me so i started researching what i could do and how...and luckily have a family garage that does aftermarket performance on cars.
so the next step was to turbo it spent about 3months gathering parts while busting my ass at work. and in january of 2010 started the project took me approx 1-1/2 weeks to finish turboing it then another week to get it right. But it just wasn't enough and i had issues cause i didn't use any engine management and stock ecu+boost=epic fail. so summer 2010d while patrolling the j/y i found a 99 4cyl sonata with a missing valve cover and the head full of water......jackpot....got the head and i/m w/ tb and everything for 100$ even cleaned up the head checked for leaks nothing. just win. so i started putting it on. then when i attempted to use the sonata coilpacks with my ecu my ecu got fried. went to the j/y pulled another galant ecu and what do you know that ones fried already. So fed up i bought an evo8 ecu and started wiring it...couldn't afford boomslang.
finally finish setting it up dual ecu style and lookit that it works i actually got the frikin wiring right i was amazed. Then when i was adding knock sensor and a few other thing a couple pin on the stock ecu got pulled out and now my shifting is starting to go all crazy on me and my maf dies. Picked up a evo 8 maf for 50$ another good deal that fixed half my problems but still shifted like crap not to mention the auto just cant handle the boost i was putting down so it was time for 5-speed, so late 2010 picked up a tranny for keith on tgc with multiple swap parts grab the other few things i needed and got started on that swap took me about 10days to do this swap because of some complications and doing it outside in the freezing rain but finished it and the car was back up and running this time with minimal problems...but about a month later and considerable amounts of boost i started to notice some major oil burning going on whenever i cold started my car damnit.
so i started buying up parts to rebuild the head. pulled it early 2011 fully rebuilt it with all new stuff and studs and put it back on the car...and lookit that burning just as much oil as ever...piston rings *facepalms*. so i took a short break from trying to fix the engine. bought a cyber gt body kit and some new rims about 2weeks ago.

Hmm, I don't see any 5spd pics lol. Its about time I get to see your g! It looks real clean and I love the setup! Now if only I can get ya to do a video haha.

[reiketsutsukigami]

lol i got tmrw off work ill do a light pull with the camera and throw it on here since im gonna be taking some updated pics anyways.

[reiketsutsukigami]

took her to the car wash dunno why but my phone was only takin black n white photos i didnt notice it till now.

this is just the rough fitment of the bodykit and ill be repainting the entire car all at once.









this is how im recirculating my bov for now still looking for a better way to do it.

[reiketsutsukigami]

if you notice those wheel gaps, yea im getting much bigger rims very soon just waitin on tires.

[Boosted]

Yes, please change the wheels. Other than that, nice whip.

[reiketsutsukigami]

thnx i went a lot more go>show starting to hit up the show now though.

[Gtorque]

Great progress man!!

[4g64turbo]

Got any new pics in color?

[mko]

why are you running 100 psi fuel pressure?

[reiketsutsukigami]

i did some injector calculations at rc engineering and it bumped the cc's up not sure if it really works but it seems like it does. oh yea and i got the new rims and tires new clutch and lightweight flywheel all installed and done still working on the custom exhaust and just about done welding all the intercooler piping now just an update on what ive done lately lol.

[reiketsutsukigami]

ill go take some color pics tmrw got a new phone so i might as well test it out droid ftw

[mko]

this is a little trick used on cars with pressure sensor( hondas). We have MAFs and the AFRs are alternated from the airflow signal.

[reiketsutsukigami]

mm oh well i already had it turned back down a while back i didnt like having the psi that high. thanks for the info though helps to know this stuff.

straight side shot of the new rims their pretty dirty from sittin but they still look nice.

[midnight]

looking sexy scott

[IVORY_G]

Nice work, alot of progress; but rims dont do the car justice. Im assuming you want to go fast since you have a turbo, but those chrome rims are really slowing you down...

[Corey2kG]

No Scott!!!! The original rims you had look better... I have a set of 17's you can have like just take them no charge just need to get them powdercoated. Text me
