Well, I’m bored at work (my 9-to-5…not my dyno business) so I thought I post some pics of my 2007 build up. Before…a mild mannered 390rwhp SR’d 240sx ![http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/before_crop.jpg](http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/before_crop.jpg) Just mocking up the Vertex Kit ![http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/kitmock_crop.jpg](http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/kitmock_crop.jpg) Motor pulled and engine bay cleaned…ready for paint ![http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/enginebayclean_crop.jpg](http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/enginebayclean_crop.jpg) But first, we need to mock and cut some holes for a custom intercooler short pipe setup. Rather than mount the intercooler traditionally, we mounted it upside down and then cut 4 inch holes behind the headlights in order to run short I/C piping. This will result in removing over 2 feet of chargepiping and should net some good responce for this street application. ![http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/intercoolerelbowclose_crop.jpg](http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/intercoolerelbowclose_crop.jpg) Engine bay primed black ![http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/blackbay_crop.jpg](http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/blackbay_crop.jpg) Time to start putting it back together. These bits have to get installed… ![http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/Parts_crop.jpg](http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/Parts_crop.jpg) Working hard…or hardly working? ![http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/danworking_crop.jpg](http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/danworking_crop.jpg) Turbo side all buttoned up ![http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/gt30ron2_crop.jpg](http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/gt30ron2_crop.jpg) ![http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/gt30ron_crop.jpg](http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/gt30ron_crop.jpg) Motor is about ready to get put back in the car. Well - it’s dirty…but it’s back in there. ![http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/Motorbackin_crop.jpg](http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/Motorbackin_crop.jpg) Off to the bodyshop… ![http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/towtruck.jpg](http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/towtruck.jpg) Sitting on the frame rack…making sure it is nice and straight ![http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/framerack.jpg](http://u2ndyno.com/pics/builds/Dan/framerack.jpg) More to come - I’m going to visit it at the bodyshop tomorrow. ---

Yeah - I’m personally not much of a bodykit kind of guy but will be using the car as a bit of a demo vehicle for my dyno business so decided to “Tuner” it up a bit. I still think it will look very clean when painted because I chose a kit that is relatively mild. Thanks for the comments on the bay - it needs a slight clean and once painted, I’ll tune it up. I’m looking to make 400rwhp on low boost and about 450 on high boost – all on pump ---
