Steve, welcome to the Callaway forum. You've done a lot of great work and your passion for the Callaway has paid off ... that has to be one of the sweetest automobiles I've ever seen or read about. :beer

Thanks for the welcome. I do have a passion for the car - sometimes I wonder why.

I pulled the trans and clutch out earlier in the week because I didn't think it was releasing properly. It appears everything is good so it's going back in today. When it is all done, I hope to take some more pics of the car. Josh requested some pics of the exhaust system so I will need to get those as well.

Steve,

Welcome to the Callaway Forum... :upthumbs

That was a great picture that Surf posted and anxioulsy awaing the others. Also those are some extremely impressive numbers you are getting - Congrats!

I was also wondering if you had modified the intercoolers or other air routing other than the porting work that you mentioned.

-=Jeff=-,rebuenmc,callaway4fun, and Luigi - again thanks for the welcome. I hope I might be able to contribute something here and also to gain some knowledge from all of you.

Luigi, as far as modified intercoolers or other air routing - yes to all of it. I have spent an incredible amount of time on this car and there aren't too many things outside of the transmission and rearend that I have not modified. I even built my own "oversize" wonderbar.

The one thing I won't do is make mods that alter the "stock" look of the major underhood components. I won't move the intercoolers, run a non-TPI based intake system, change the location of the turbos, etc., etc.

My goal is to get as much power out of this "stock appearing" setup as possible. It would take a very sharp eye to notice any deviations from stock on my car.

Steve, when you get them just email them to me and I'll host them if you need.
 
Welcome Steve ! As you can tell we are obviously very interested in hearing more about your Callaway.

I especially appreciate and admire your post about "stock appearing " and yet have the impressive numbers you are seeing!

You have created a (STIR) around here. So Start Typing!
Paul
 
Josh: I will take you up on that offer as soon as I have more pics.

Paul: Thanks for the welcome and the comment. I am still unsure about talking about my car and what I have gone through with it. I will wait until the car is running again which will hopefully be this weekend.
