Revamping a proven race machine with a completely new wiring harness, Dry sump, Motec PDM, Carbon dashboard and more. The old harness has been modified and adjoined so many times that a new harness needs to be constructed to make this machine reliable once again.

Kihurani brought us his Evo VIII for a Rally America Super Production class build. A year later the project took a new direction as he chose to become more competitive in the PA Hillclimb Championship. In 2010 the car was stripped and a full cage was fabricated. In SP Class, only the engine management and exhaust can be modified. A 34mm restrictor has to be installed which requires machining of the compressor housing. A Vipec V44 ECU was installed and Bill fabricated a Group A type exhaust with double slip fit connections, a 100 cell catylist and a small resonator. This year we're starting a new stage of development, no longer restricted by Rally America Production class rules we're upgrading the turbocharger to a Garrett GT3076/ Tial Housing, tubular manifold, custom downpipe, AMS moustache bar eliminator, removing EVAP system, Ralliart bushing kit installation, Bosch ID 1000cc injectors and remapping. We'll be adding all power-supporting parts to the build along with an intercooler and pipe kit from AMS.

Removing and rebuilding the engine on this 993 TT for the sake of upgrading to stronger internals. The engine block will remain untouched. New twin plug heads, evo cams and JE pistons will be installed prior to retuning for more boost and more power.

Building a big spec street car for Charbel. The shell is the cleanest E30 we've seen. He and his father painted the car together, engine bay and wheel wells. It looks new. Charbel installed an EvoIII rear spoiler at the same time. We will be finishing the VAC 2.5 liter motor with Titanium retainers and stiffer valve springs. Other parts involved in the build are Motec M4, fully enabled, ATL spare wheel fuel cell, dual disk clutch and light flywheel from VAC, Fikse wheels, Tilton Hydro TOB, aluminum radiator, Mocal Oil cooler, big brakes and more. This gallery will be updated once the build is underway.

Mercedes' venerable " Cosworth" 2.3-16 190e. This is the limited production W201 Chassis Mercedes built for the purpose of rallying initially by Mercedes, then used for touring car racing. Cosworth was hired to design the cylinder head and pistons for this 16 valve motor. At DSG we gave this Cossie new life by installing new custom Ground Control Suspension, a roll cage, rear differential rebuild for higher lockup, shifter mechanism rebuild, racing seats and other safety items.

To tune this S2000 Nick installed one of the first KPro S2K conversions using RSX sensors. Bill fabricated a new exhaust using a J's Racing muffler and we installed headers. The car made 211whp on our Dyno after Matt tuned it.

Robert brought us his pristine Civic hatchback to make it go around Lime Rock Park faster. We took some steps in the right direction. On the first visit to the shop the car had an engine prepared by another company. We have since removed that D Series motor and we're installing a K 24 with no turbo this time. The k series motor will make more power with no turbo than the D series did with a GT30. The K series is a collaboration between the best Honda builders in the country. We are working with Benson's, Laskey, Endyn and Hi-Tech. Benson's did the sleeving. Laskey built the short block. Endyn is completing the cylidner head with a custom set of cams and a matched header by Hi-Tech. It does not get ANY better than this for Honda. DSG is completing final long block assembly in house and conducting tuning on it's dyno under Matt Koestner.

4G63 Powered BMW E30

Adding this to the album for nostalgia. This car was built in my driveway in Newton MA. It spawned a new confidence in what could be achieved on a low budget and taught us a lot about cars, in more ways than one. The bimmubishi was built with basic tools and a 135 amp mig welder.. nothing special. It was a decent early attempt that sub came to constant gearbox problems (no one made transmission adapters back when I built this car) I am of the belief that it's the very first 4g63 powered BMW in the world.

It held it's own but proved far too unreliable for a race car of any stature. It was retired and the shell was reused for phase II, the SR20det motor which worked much better but was only a small step up in the large scheme of things.
