16 year old Harry's Buschur Powered Gt35 R 2.3L Stroker Street Sweeper

This is a little project we have been working on for some time. Our customer bought this car used and brought it to us to starigten out any loose ends. Who ever put it together originally had a few loose ends that needed to be sorted out. Biggest problem was defective valve springs which allowed the valves to flot into the pistons at 7300 rpms. Also some excess lock tight material and scoring was on the crank end which prevented a flush snug fit of the flywheel and resulted in the clutch being out of balance.

Flash forward a few months and we have a rebuilt motor and freshened up the clutch and this street monster is ready to roll.

Modifications are

Buschur 2.3L Race engine
Buschur Stage III head
Buschur race cams
Buschur ported intake
Buschur fmic and fmic pipes
HKS twin fire
Buschur GT35 R turbo kit
Buschur 3" t/b exhuast
Buschur double pumper
Aquamist HFS 5 alcohol
E Boost 2
AEM tuned by Dyno Flash
TRE built trans
Exedy twin disk racing clutch

Right now the car is making 500 whp on 28 - 29 psi on pump gas with 475 TQ and a nice flat power band. It spools up fully by 4400 rpms so the 2.3L really gets this baby making boost down low.

We ordered some new coils and plug wires as we have a slight ignition miss. We are going to pour in some race gas and shoot for 600 plus whp.

Here is a video of our initial tuning session.

I just don't understand how a 16 yr old kid can be expected to handle a 500+ whp street car. Good work on the car though Al, just hope not to hear any horror stories later.

Harry is a really inteligent and mature young man and wise beyond his years.

I feel he has the maturity and the brains to not wind up killing himself.

I intend to give him a lot of driving lessons and coaching before he takes the car.

In reality a 275 whp stock evo can be just as leathal as a 500 whp evo is the owner drives the car beyond his skill level or in situations where they lack plenty of open straight road in front of them.

Most of the accidents I have heard of involve someone going too fast for conditions and sliding off the road when they are comming through a corner.

I certainly never had a chance to have a car like this at 16 but Harry is a special young man and I am glad that he is the one to get this machine.

I hope he enjoys it a lot

That car should not be in the hands of young kid. Doesn't make sense.

Al, He may very well be mature beyond his years, The problem is when he has 2 buddies in the car who are'nt as mature pushing him to do something stupid. In retrospect do you wish you had a car as powerful as this when you were a kid? I know I'm glad I did'nt.

** Enough moral policing for me. I hope he enjoy's the car as safely as possible.
