hi
ive been reading a lot of this...i recently own a beams rep top engine for my AT180 the engine is totally swaped..finally heres my doubt...i want to turbo my beams...i know its a high compression engine...so it need low compression pistons but ..does anyone know who can make me some forged pistons? what else should i need besides that? vvti have to be removed? from what ive read i know there are 2 succesfull turbo-beams..the hks and..a guy i think hes from uk thought and altezza-black top and 3sgte pistons wont fit...=( any ideas? does anyone have some info about this project? thanks in advance paul =) This post has been edited by paul52: May 17, 2009 - 1:23 AM |

doing this to the beams will it still out pwr the (stock) 3sgte?.....wont it lower the beams hp putting lower comp. pistons in it....iv had plans to do the same but every 1 told me its not worth turboing unless u just want to claim that u have a turboed beams....from my understanding the beams is ment to be straight engin, changing its insides will result in hp and torque loss then adding boost will just bring it back.....so from what ppl here told me its not worth turboing......
