its been wayyyyyy to long since my last post and the picture is not going to do it justice but that moment is finally here....
not completely done but the car is up and running and it has been dynoed and creating very safe but noticeably wonderful gains
just a couple things to sort out like having the ecu control the A/C, actually installing the battery box in the trunk instead of having it strapped down with bungee cords and wiring in all the new gauges
any how here is a small teaser pic
good bye distributor hello coil packs
do not hate on the picture the car is extreemly dusty and my phone is shit

Hey man, have you got the Emerald K6 running yet?? Looking to get one for my EP91 And what sensors you used and didn't use to get it running?
Cheers
Nik
I used all original sensors and one extra sensor for the crank provided by emerald them self on request from the emerald tuner in Trinidad .... The oils pump with special housing for the 5e that runs coils was used as it accommodates the crank sensor... An then additional sensors from a Subaru wrx was used as we had them laying about on the wheels for traction control

hey mate, sorry i did not ready your whole build. just here and there. how did you end up getting an oil starvation mate (i think this is what you said caused issue with your big end) ?
The oils pressure valve inside the sump some how shat it self and the inside of it fell apart and the spring jumped out... So the only way stuff was getting oil to it was by splashing about of oil in the sump...

soo i just made some purchases online.... turns out two of the rods burned so i bought a whole new set of rods 290 quid
bought new rings for the pistons... 90 quid
sent the spare block i had to bore for clearance for over sized pistons... 100 quid
the warranty on the turbo had expired however there is a rebuild kit for it so i purchased that as well 115 quid
and we have officially decided we never ever want to starve for oil again in this car cuz if it does im going to throw a grenade at it so.... we ordered an external oil pressure valve...
this is the part right here
and lastly i ordered me a whole set of brand new gauges i want to know what goes wrong as it goes wrong next time... boost, oil pressure, water temp
all from this web site ... they are fully custom from the lights colour to the fonts back ground colout surrounding shroud finish needle ... u name it u can change it....its an american site but there stuff is hott shitt

The local dealer for the rods has a great relationship with his suppliers and some how managed to get them to agree to ship one rod... Don't ask how ... I don't know .... Scat asked for te weight of the rod so just have to get that and I'll be organised ....oooo man im gutted to hear that !!!!! you can use a 4efe oil valve and fit a washer to it
i think i still have 1 of a 4efte here must check i never heard of scat being sold seperate mete ????
Taking this opportunity as I'm in the engine to change gaskets seals and piston rings... Clutch plate is changing
Upgrading the injectors
Taking the opportunity to change the exhaust finally
We are fed up of oil being an issue so we are going balls to wall and ensuring this rounds there is no chance of loosing oil pressure
Poly bushing all the mounts
And officially becoming a poor person ....
After this if the car wats to blow up it better had straight up blow the fuck up cuz I will not be spending a dime more after this last engine build

I don't have any explanation for what happened but hear goes .... My oil pressure valve inside the block some how managed to complete shit it's self yesterday ... I mean completely...
Was driving home and all of a sudden knock knock knock I was like woah .. Take it into the shop and check the oil and it's silver so bearing has gone ... I have a set of bearing so say ok let's change em and find the cause... Take ioff the sump and number one is knocking and bearing has spun... To make it worse the rod is black like tar and burnt ... So I'm livid ... But we have no idea why... So I continue stripping the engine when the mechanic starts to give the engine that wtf look ... He looks in the oils pressure valve and the entire center of it is gone .... I mean gone...the valve is in the block and it looks fine but it's hollowed out like a slack twatt.... So my engine in essence was driving around with no oil for a couple miles .... Suspicions of the worse hits us and we check the intercooler piping .... Full of oil....so 900£ tomei turbo is caputs....
So where does that leave me.... I need a rod ... Hoping scat is nice and will sell me one instead of all four... I need a turbo ... I need a oil pressure valve thingy and i need lots of money ....
I'm getting fed up ... I wanted to BURN THE CAR DOWN LAST NIGHT -
arighty people i got an amazing offer that i do not think i can pass up on my tomei turbo and i believe im going to sell it.... i have a garret gt25 and gt28 at my disposal
can some one please tell me what they think is the yay and nays to either .... the 25 is double ball bearing not to sure what the 28 is havent gotten the specs yet....
i was loving the spool of the tomei and of the original tdo4 im wondering if the car will become laggy with the gt28....
i know for a fact that the spool on the gt25 will be insane but im wondering if it will run out of juice on me like a ct9
let me hear your thoughts

its costly .... to get a full body kit down here its going to cost u about 18000tt

When its put on the car it's going to be angled up a little and I think it's goin to be a little more aggressive than the real livesports... A little less than a toms ... A mild in between may be
