I know its not a DSM, but cool nonetheless.

This is Devlish's Super Thing. Fast for a 4-door shitbox!! Do not under estimate this thing!

for those wondering specs...

Motor: 2.2liters of fury pushing 18psi through an intercooled setup with all hard pipes, and a larger 1 piece intake manifold with a 55mm throttle body. Exhaust gasses flow through a full 2.5" mandrel bent exhaust. Electronics have been updated to T2 specs, allowing for 29psi should i decide to upgrade the turbo next season. Fuel is handled by a walbro 255 going through +40% injectors, (approx 600cc) being controlled by an areomotive AFPR. ARP head bolts, mopar perf headgasket, UDP, ported hotside. probably a few more small things i'm forgetting

Suspension: all polyurethane bushings throughout, full koni coilover setup, with adjustible dampners. Rear hard bar, front STB

Brakes: SLH-2.5 package (Stops Like Hell). larger single piston calipers up front, 11" vented rotors, upgraded master cylinder. All SS brake lines where needed. hawk pads up front

Wheels: street tires for daily use, Nitto drags for straightline use, Hoosier AutoX slicks for track days.

Guages: Autometer Boost, Oil press, Water temp, EGT, Innovative Wideband

Body: Fully repainted to factory color 2 years ago when the project began. Side molding removed and rear end smoothed. rear side markers gone, and 3rd brakelight gone.

I might actually drive it more than 30days this year... after 3yrs of ownership it's been a fun project!

Just curious... Isn't 18-29 psi enough power do benefit from a full 3" exhaust as opposed to the 2.5"?

[TSi_II]

I definitely want to see this thing in action this year though!

[Devlish]

probably. but i got a good deal on the 2.5" so i went with it. might change it out to a full 3" if i do a bigger turbo. otherwise, for now... it's fine. no cat, straight thru muffler. very free flowing.

So you have more money into the motor/turbo/suspension as you do the whole car?

Thats one hell of a sleeper..

[Devlish]

about that yes. some of the upgrades where on it. and i did pay a little more for it than a should have, but it's a florida car. there's isn't a spot of rust on the entire underside. those cars are prone to rust, so it's worth it to me.

got the motor all back together, put back in the car, and started her up. She sounds GOOD!!! Looking foward to taking it for a rip soon!!!

ya.. I love working on rust free cars.. It makes everything much more enjoyable to work on.

[Dizmm]

Rust free and oil free would be awesome!

[Devlish]

it would have been oil free... had we remembered that one bolt... haha
