I think my motor is screwed , and was wondering wich is the best and reliable and cheapest way to go about a new motor??
Buy a new one??? Or build my one i got??? What do u guys suggest and any places i can contact about info and sizing and all this fun stuff?? And i would like to pull some horse power out of it as well since im at this stage!!!:thumb:
 
I would rather a rebuild instead of buying other potential problems. That way you know (or your mechanic knows) whats going on with the internals.
How exactly do you think your motor is screwed?
 
should I consider rebuild with this compresion ratio :
1st cilindar 160 ,2nd 155 ,3th 150 ,4th 160
The engine is perfect and very powerful makes 120hp on the wheels,
and has no problems.
 
Its making a loud whining noise and a little bit of a knock at idle!!
On the datalogger everything is perfect?? And it still pulls like a mother ####er it all started when i got my 3 inch exahust on on friday!!
I would buy from Magnus , or rebuild with a good performance kit!!
 
I had it to our local engine shop today amd they said that the turbo bearing is gone, and they think it might be a ristpin or something that is making the knock from back of the motor!!
The noise is coming from around the oil cover area!!
SO everyone tells me i should rebuild it so i will know what i got!! What u guys think???
