George, you guys doing this in house, or is this one of the 666 fab creations?

Sure looks like one of Jon's creations to me.

I'd be extremely surprised if it wasn't. Excellent welds and crafsmanship.

Long live the evolution!

I wouldn't think that currently there is any worry about an air cleaner since this is an R&D car. I suppose fit and fitment is important in case a regular street car customer wanted his setup and needed a filter. However I believe the number of drives would be so few that a mesh screen would be enough. Has anyone come out with a mesh screen/spongy filter combination yet? I would think someone should with the tight space constraints and demand with these larger turbos. I know I would have come out with them myself if I were part of the Garrett R&D team.

Will you be trying a 5" downpipe George?

That would be nuts.

Are there any plans for some major R&D for the entire drivveline? You can now make the power...the question is, putting it to the ground and keeping parts of the car from exploding. That is the next step right there. Not as easy as turning up the boost unfortunately. Maybe there are different complete rear suspension setups from say the e34 m5 or e39 m5 that can be modified to work with the e36. Strengthening what is curretnly there has been a challenge. Replacing it with something better but keeping it IRS, that is the way to go.

All within time Cam, one step @ a time. The Gt4788 should be very interesting and more interesting on the bottle. My air intake temps should be around 50-60 F degrees under boost. Cool charge + BIG BOOST = MOPOWA

Sounds good...I'm still curious about what trans is going behind this...

The transmission, driveshaft and rear will end up faliing out.

That is still undecided YET.

If its going to be a dyno-queen (as you said) on your DynoJet, the stock ZF Trans, Driveshaft, and Diff should all be fine, no? (especially on your inertia dyno)

Here's the lastest on the build-up. It's coming along...

I should rename it from the Bumble Bee to the "CYCLOPS"

You can close the hood? WTF?

Looking good! Looking damn good! That looks like it could be one of those wood chippers where the guys cut the trees down and shove it in there to make mulch.

I like Cyclops much beter than the bumble bee.

Too bad this won't see the strip. Gonna love seeing dyno vids some day though!

Could ya get some better clamps? Jeesh.

And while you are at it I think you need another bottle of NOS. Yeah you'll need two of them...the big ones.

It will eventually get down the strip... someday.
