Alright....I am in the process of building my 1g eclipse and all that's done so far is the engine build. What I want you guys to do if you'll be so kind is to critique my setup to be and also give me your prediction of the driving characteristics based on your own experience and knowledge. I just want to see if my thinking is inline with the majority here. Also as a quick note....I didn't list certain obvious parts like head studs and HG, so by all means ask or point it out, but just wanted you to know it's all been addressed.
Block:
2.0L stock specs
stock crank - polished
manley i beam rods
manley pistons ceramic and teflon coated
balance shaft delete
Head:
Ported
new stock valves
big bore lifters
80lb beehive valve springs
Either GSC S2 or Kelford 272s
Fuel, Ignition and Engine Management:
ID 1000cc injectors
Walbro 450
AFPR
AEM v1
Sparktech?!?!
Intake and Exhaust:
JMF or Magnus Cast?!?!
Custom rams horn equal length T3 turbo header with external WG
Intercooler - ETS Street??? Could be a bottleneck
Turbo:
6262 journal, 6062 Gen 2 or 6266 Gen 2 (I wish there was a 6262 Gen 2)
Drivetrain:
Jacks Stage 3
Sprung street clutch
Stock everything else (Will replace when/if they break)
The purpose of the build is to have a "reliable" pump gas 500whp street/strip car that isn't too torquey for the purpose of taking it easy on the drivetrain. Also, it is a goal to have some headroom with the parts I go with so I can get a little more power with certain other mods such as methanol. Any suggestions are appreciated as well. Thanks!
