Cool, great build so far. Any idea what kind of power you made on that 19t after the motor build and before deciding to upgrade? What kind of boost were you running on the 19t? That garrett turbo is HUGE! Can't wait to see this bad azz mo fo back on the road. :)

I think i should be able to make around the same power on 1/2 the boost with the new setup. The powerband should be much better also.

I forgot to take pics of the cam cover ready to go in with the cams installed but they're in.

I quickly made my own cam locking tool and it was worth it. Much easier to have the cams held steady while your trying to bolt it back up. It also stops the cams from moving while you install the cam gears and slip on the timing belt. Pretty hard to mess things up this way. Anyone doing cam swaps, i highly recommend you make oneof these. Took all of 15 mins.
