After all your input, this is what I think I will end up doing...
No Turbo for me at all. thinking Stock Pistons now, 10.5:1 Stock Rods Stock Crank (balanced and micropolished) Simple Hone on Cylinder Walls (no boring) Stock Rod/Main Bearings ...(open to suggestions) Metal Head Gasket Port/Polish Cyl-Head (not extreme) Mild, if at all now; shaving of the cyl-head for more compression Webcams Ebay Header (Will prepare it as posted on prior forums) New Aeroturbine Exhaust (tested and personal choice) 2.5" Piping AFC NEO for A/F tuning after build. Same Injen SRI My list is now complete, thanks for all the help guys! This post has been edited by 6G96GT: Apr 12, 2008 - 3:38 PM |

For what you are talking about yes cause otherwise your not gonna feel much if any gains out of what you're doing. I think what Pressure was saying is you aren't really intending to do much to gain even a little power. Chances are the most gain you will feel is the motor rebuild with good compression, seals etc.
Perhaps you should plan to do a little more work and add the cams now? I don't understand why you would wait on them anyway seeing as how you'll have the motor open and now would be the best time to get it done. --------------------  ENGINE: '93 RC 3S-GTE/WRC CT-20b [18-20PSI] PERF: TRD/HKS/ARP/NGK/MSD/ACT/Blitz/STRI/APEX'i/TwosRus/GReddy/Magnaflo/KOYO SUSP: Tein/Bilstein/SusTech/ INT: SS-III SEATS/Toyota Hyper Sports EXT: WRC/TRD/404 QUOTE (lagos @ Aug 25, 2010 - 10:13 AM)  Its a safety feature so that people like you don't end up killing themselves or everyone around them.

Hmm...I think you are righ afterall about the cams, I was talking to my brother (he's got the gt-s (2001)) and was telling me the same thing. I might as well do it...I just was thinking about breaking in the engine first but I guess what difference does it make, right? |
