Grand prix and throttle body relocation and Electric PS

Long time no updates...finally all moved in but I could not resist in going to see my friend Arek from www.8legsracing.com race at the trois riviere grand prix.


Here is is posing with my 12 year old Nicolas, it was his first time at the races he loved it.

 

Pic of me and my son in front of yet another very cool and powerfull BMW  at the grand prix.

So I decided on these little mini project on my car to make it a better street machine.

-Sound proofing I made a custom sound blanket (removable) and added insulation on the hood and inside the dash.

-Also relocating my throttle body to make it the way a roots type is really suppose to work (I had issues with drivability and with 10-12 PSI no way a BOV or multiple BOV would work....plus the sound is way too much) so this decrease the sound by a LOT and with no BOV drivability will be much better. Its a lot more work but much worth it.

And here you can see the location of my electric PS with the high and low pressure attached (just have to make a mount for it)

After I finish these 2 mini project I will install my big custom 7" pulley and look for a 6 rib belt and then am off to the drags (my goal is 2 weeks) then let the fun begin :)
