BV600s Auto 2014

[BV600]

Figured I'd start a build progress thread since I have a nice pile of parts ready to go on. To start I had a 2012 GT M6 with a procharger D1SC and a bunch of other stuff that probably made in the 650whp range. I sold it leaving Germany and ordered a auto 13, once here ford told me it would be 5 months until delivery so I canceled and got a 13k mile 03 Z06. I loved the Z06 but crawling in and out of that thing got old quick and I wanted something bigger.

So I ended up trading in the Z06 for a 2014 Oxford White 301a A6. I started out with some GT500 Axle backs that I got for free and cleaned them up really nice. Also got some pretty good deals on H&R Race Springs, Koni STR.T and BMR Panhard.

I realized the suspension would not work for my intended street and strip use so I switched it up to BMR Springs, LCA, relocation brackets, and Strange shocks and struts. I also had a UCA bracket but AM sent me the wrong year so that was returned.

Here are some pics I have with the old suspension setup









With the Kooks AB

Do those kook mufflers sound good?

Yes really really deep tone, I cant wait to hear them with the X pipe installed.
GT500s used to be my favorite, had them on my 2012 also.
The only other exhaust ive had was the magnaflow competition catback and that was too much.

[StormTrooper]

Nice car and color choice. I have the kooks as well and was debating on h or x but hearing them with an h pipe on my buddies car I think I will go X as well. Can you post a video of it once you end up installing the x. Thanks

[BV600]

Yep I should have them on with in the next week or two.

Oh and heres the hood vents

Nitrous is here and will have a nice write up soon here is the diagram. Also have the converter but not sure if I want to attempt that on jackstands.
I might have to loosen my lca relocation brackets and use a bfh. The wheels sit straight in the wells on both sides but the steering wheel is crooked a tad. Could just be I need an alignment?

[BV600]

Put the Darkstars on today couldn't get the Panhard bar jam nuts loose so they stick out further on the driver side at the moment. A little disappointed with the 295s I should have went with 275s, they stick out a little to far for my likings. Ill go with 275s when I change tires again. They look awesome in the sun! Also started messing with the nitrous. Decided I want to add a fuse block to the kit. This isn't permanent im just messing around with ideas, thinking about putting in glove box.

Looks great! Update us whenever you hit the track.

Also, did you use any Locktite or any other product to keep the lock nut in place on the panhard bar? I find it strange that it won't loosen, especially since it hasn't been on there too long.

[BV600]

Thanks I got some abs plastic sheets to redo the fuse block area and a different type of fuse box itself. Also started making some pigtails to plug everything up wanted to make it as plug and play as possible.

I actually bought the panhard used which I'm sering is a mistake I'm going to go back at it in a couple days.

[JDMLOL]

Looking good. Curious to see the nitrous write up when it's done.

[BV600]

Thanks have some stuff on the way in the mail then I will finish everything as well as trying to figure out a good way to mount in the glove compartment.

[BV600]

Well I did a big change of direction thinking the Nitrous would only give me my fix for a short time. So Ive got a D1SC Procharger the intercooler and all the piping. I will be pieceing together a kit.

Im thinking
JPCs Paxton Coolant tank
Custom Piping from intercooler to TB so I keep stock Fan
Procharger Big Red Bypass Valve

Some other little odds and ends ill post up as it arrives

[garner]

Think I may have passed you on 190 by trimmier earlier today

[BV600]

Nope, I haven't driven my car in two weeks! Wont be driven that much for the next 3 months or so. You can tell me by the Racestars I dd them.
