Last year I swapped a Euro S50B32 into my coupe, something I've wanted since I was a little lad. Few months ago, one of the connecting rods felt a little claustrophobic and shot through the block. Shitty.
Twas time to get serious. Stripped the car down to a shell and started building my dream car. 2 months, some late nights, and couple bucks, it lived.
Rebuilt the car as it would have come from the factory with an S54 (complete body harness, DSC conversion, weld-on brackets, etc). Rebuilt the motor completely and threw on a Gintani supercharger kit (15psi, meth injection, air-to-liquid). Making over 600whp as it sits, aiming for more.
Enough talk, here are some pics (before, during, current)

So uhh, how long before the S54 decides it wants to jump ship? Looks so massive in that last pic. Epic build though.

Awesome.
Damn, the first shot w/ the CCDubs fitted made my dik move. No doubt proof you're doing things properly.
That kind of power will put a perma-grin on your face.
Any reason for Gintani over VF or ESS? Familiarity with the details of SC options for our S54s is cursory at best.
