How many cars you working on? Whose are they? I'm just confused with all theses references / accronyms?

Re: team ab drag race and street builds
What does AB stand for? Why is the maroon 2g the OG?
Keep up the good work though, cars look great and should be beasts at the track!

Re: team ab drag race and street builds
^awesome and good for you halon.
UPDATE the 2.4 2g or guys car is all put back together. The car has a sweet build but it still had a lot of the engine bay clutter going on like all the emission stuff etc. also the car needed a 5th/reverse hub and slider bad. The car is now ready for fluids and I can start the tune on it as soon as guy decides on what he wants to use for fuel and what set of injectors he wants to use this year.

Re: team ab drag race and street builds
Picked up some wheels and tires. I am pretty happy with them. Enkei wheels 17x7 38 offset tires eagle f1 all brand new.
Also Andre welded my new flange on my intake, so that's pretty much ready to go. We also did a bunch of powder coating and got my intake mani redone, all my ic piping and my intake and a few small parts done. I see no reason I shouldn't be able to have it ready for first start up very soon now. Pretty excited about the transformation. I never did upgrade turbos but we will see how it goes really.

Re: team ab drag race and street builds
catch can lines were too short for now but thats minor. I must have mixed up #3 and 4 injector wires and I have two injectors not firing so I sent them off to fic today. Hope to have it running soon.

Re: team ab drag race and street builds
I just did a quick wire tuck. I shortened everything by two feet by relocating everything behind the motor. The fuse box is under the frame behind the bumper for now. I will eventually put it in the glove box area and go a little more crazy next year. Wiring is not my strong point, but like anything I'm getting more comfortable with it. Thanks for the comments fellas. Carbon fenders sound fun. I'm more worried about my carbon hood situation though. I put a buddy heater in the engine bay and heated the hood up and it tinted the hood orange red brownish color. Don't really want to paint it red cause I like the look of carbon to contrast on my car.

Re: team ab drag race and street builds
Just was working threw some start up issues on my buddies eclipse and look at how I found his 1450s. These only have like a 1000 miles of Colorado e85 on them. This reminds me of Carls situation so much. One was barely opening, could have been the end of the db built 2.4 motor. Scary stuff.
