Hi,
a lot of time passed since the last update. Unfortunately I do not have the time I wish to spend, but the progress going on slowly

The Engine grew up a little bit
I changed to the MS230 Cylinder Heads from JP-Motorsport. The bore is now 101.6mm. The Turbocharger is a Garrett GT4294R.
In front of the Engine you can see a tooth-belt drive System for the 3-Stage Dry-Sump OilPump and the mechanical Fuel Pump from Aeromotive which should have a high enough flow rate to feed the Engine with E85



Also I redesigned the Rear-Axle and changed the Rims. Now there are 11x18 285/30 at the rear and 8.5x18 with 225/35 at the front. The heavy GFK Fenders and Hoods are replaced by lightweighted CFK Parts from Remmele:





Sorry I do not have more details at this time. More to be posted later

Chris

Thanks for keeping us updated, great work. I wonder about turbo lag though with that big turbo, but serious power I'm sure! Any more progress on the front suspension of yours?

Mine has worked out very well so far, let me know if you would like to view the CAD drawing.
