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 |

unless you can answer my questions i don't recommend any of your mods.
What ignition timing map are you going to use to adjust for higher compression? What octain fuel do you plan to use? Are you going to use a standalone ecu? |

What ignition timing map are you going to use to adjust for higher compression? Well, that depends on how much compression the stock head is made for, I don't know that answer, so I am open to suggestions...What is the stock compression for my GT now? What octain fuel do you plan to use? Whatever my car drives best on...right now (regular) and she drives like a charm, but after the build, I'll probably go 93 octane. Are you going to use a standalone ecu? Well, I want to get an A/F control to tune the cams a/f adjusments, I don't think I'll need fuel mani upgrades because I'm going to do something to the equivalent of a stage I cam setup. Besides, I'm not really interested in a stand alone ecu, I had one before on my turbo talon and it was expensive and I don't plan on going to the dyno more than once or twice. Why? This is just going to be a nice build with light machine work. This post has been edited by 6G96GT: Apr 10, 2008 - 3:11 PM |

I wouldn´t put that crap to any motor. get atleast 95, or higher. Im running on 99+ -------------------- |
