Just ordered 65mm ported throttle body and ported intake manifold by buschur racing. should arrive by friday.

pics of product.

Nice. Make sure you use a torque wrench when torquing down the intake manifold. If you over-torque it, that heat barrier gasket will leak from everywhere.

Nice work man, can not wait to see this beautiful car back on its wheels.

**whokilledhoughes** · 04-26-2011, 08:41 PM

Nice progress and I think I'm going to have to set up a South Florida meet next time I'm out there. I drive down there every summer and stay out there for 3 week. I never see any of these cars when I visit my fam out in hollywood, Miami and fort lauderdale.

Edit I did bump into Qnz 2 years ago lol

buddy of mine (ryu, club3g) has an evo and went fp red, maxed it out on stock bottom end then went fp black, still on stock bottom end butt had to rebuild it twice, he didnt want to rebuild it again so he went bigger...

but he had no problem with the fp red

For my power goals in mind the FP red will do the job just fine. I've some people doing 550+ with the red. So only time will tell.

Well ported intake manifold and throttle body came in today from busher racing.
Put the intake manifold back together with the new parts.

Does anyone know what the function of this valve is? On the side of the manifold. It's getting vacuum from the manifold and then theres a vacuum line that goes to the stock FPR, which I'm not gonna use. where does it go to?

looks purrty

**underated** · 08-13-2011, 12:07 AM

i dont know if you got an answer but that is the fuel pressure solenoid.

**whokilledhoughes** · 08-17-2011, 04:43 PM

well havent been updating in a while...big updates.... engine is complete, just waiting for my FP red to come in. working on the interior as well... but enough talking...here are the pics

added an inline fuel filter.

getting ready to take the block to the machine shop to get balanced, cleaned, honed, ect..

picked up this little guy in the meantime

Block is back from machine shop

picked up more goodies

let the assembly begin..there was a lot of flipping turning adjusting parts...but in the end all came out great...everything is in time and ready to fire up.

and now its going to sleep until the time to go in the car comes.

moving to the interior

YES..the carpet dash cover will be eliminated...just received a mold to cover my dash.

should finish the interior this week...

**Isaurio** · 08-17-2011, 05:01 PM

Nice fuking work. Question why did you go with the 4g63 and not 4g64?

Nice work with the interior, thats what i'm going for. I even ask a sample from their website very good quality.

What is the C/R of the piston?

i paid for a complete motor...so i would not make up the difference by selling the bottom end...and plus now i have a 64 bottom laying around...who knows...maybe a future project there...

i am happy with their quality carpet...just have to do a little trimming and looks like factory..

C/R is stock evo but im using an HKS 1.2mm head gasket...so should be 8.5.1
