Ah, thanks guys. Porting it out shouldn’t be any issue and saves the headache of the downpipe alignment. & I stay away from eBay parts, learned my lessons years ago :banghead:

Yes that’s a VERY good deal on a VERY reliable VERY fun turbo:)

This above.

The way I look at it is a ported stock o2 housing is plenty sufficient for any internally gated “bolt on” unit, especially when you upgrade later and require one with a wastegate provision if you stay with a bolt in set up or decide you want to...

You do NOT need the Evo 3 o2 housing. While a ported Evo 3 o2 housing is an upgrade over a ported 1g/2g unit, it is not necessary and requires modification to the downpipe to make it work. A ported 1g/2g will do just fine, and difference vs an...

Hurt? No. Help at the 16G power level? Also no. The stock head with stock sized valves is capable of much more than 500hp.The rest of your setup is also good for more than 500. A stock manual transmission, which is basically all that there is...

Awesome, looks like I’ll need a evo3 o2 housing. Guess the 1/2g one doesn’t fit

Ok, ill look into getting the evo3 16g. Extreme PSI is have a sale on them right now. $790. Good deal? https://www.extremepsi.com/store/Genuine-MHI-Mitsubishi-TD05H-EVO-III-Big-16G-49178-01470-SALE.html

My other concern is does the +1mm over exhaust valves hurt anything with the std intake valves for the stock cams

Yea you guys are right, let me gain some experience with tuning first. Stock cams/cam gears, 16G +ecm link. This is what’s going in the block, so hopefully it can take the upgrade in the future. Eagle H rods, wiseco 8.3:1, balance shaft delete...

You can easily make 400 on stock cams. (Side note I'd stick with 350hp personally. 400 is pushing the limits of the transmission)Bigger cams make an engine less streetable. Best thing to do is invest the money in tuning software, then fuel...

Make 250whp reliably first, then step up to a 16G and do low-mid 300’s reliably first. Tuning yourself the whole way. By the time you’re done with that it’ll have taught you the nature of how to keep a DSM running and reliable, and you’ll know...

Indeed. You haven't listed if you have an ECU solution so we'll assume you don't.If you don't have any turbo at all yet, and you don't have an extensive background with DSMs, I'd suggest you go to a used 14b first. It's amazing how you can wake...

Hey, I'm current in the process of building my 1g block, I've got the head almost there but I need help choosing cams. Here is what I currently have on the head.GSC Intake Valves STD GSC Exhaust Valves +1mm Kiggly Steel Street Beehive Springs...

Yes balance shaft delete is beneficial, due to the fact that there’s less rotating mass on the crank, if you’re going to delete the balance shafts, make sure you get the GSC race balance shaft delete kit, as you want the ground down style balance...

I work for a bearing company and could possibly have these made for us, if anyone has the spec dimensions this could really help.

I'm getting 1.268" ID on one end, the other end 1.265". The OD I'm getting 1.461". Length I'm getting 2.314". It looks worn in some spots more than others. Not sure how much play there should be, I could always take a video and post it for a visual.

Maybe even dimensions of what the ID is suppose to be? I could have these made. Just can’t find anything on it!

Hey Guys, I'm in the process of rebuilding the transfer case and I cant find anything on this bearing sleeve. Hopefully one of the bros can point me in the right direction for this.
