what do you al think i should do? ITB's or turbo the 5sfe? it's getting hard to find a ct-26 in decent shape for a decent price, BUT i would be willing to sacrifice boost for kick ass lookin/WORKING setups like ITB's
ITB pics would be cool too -------------------- Coming in 2010 full paintjob - new wheels - modified body - new interior - engine build- marriage |

you have a GT, which means you have a 5sfe. 5sfe is not known as a high horse power engine, it is known to have good usable torque.
So, the engine is designed to pull,,, basically. Thus you have put forth 2 options: 1. Get ITB's (individual throttle bodies). This mod is Great... for the right enging. ITB's are ment for high reving high compression race-type engines. This is not a good idea for a 5sfe which is a low rev long stroke torque engine. Thus I will tell you: you should go turbo if you do anything. The turbo will bring out the engines inherant positive attributes while decreasing it's low hp faults. Also, the f series head design is great for turbo applications. |
