To be on the safe side you should go with a built bottom end. I have a 2.3L I can sell you. It has Eagle rods and Wiseco pistons

I'm torn between the Sti or the 84 Audi 5K. I bet the audi is good for 65hp

The two are not compatible.

Here is a link that will help you out. epromid [ECMTuning - wiki] It looks like non epromYou will know if it is a 90 when the tach doesn't work.

Thats good to hear. Are they going to assemble the bottom end for you?

so you rely on this every day to get around. How long will it take for you to install your rods and pistons?

is this your daily driver?

You have a lot of learning Grass Hoppa

Why waist the money on parts that are capable of 600hp if your olny going for 400hp. Theres safe....then theres stupid.not to mention your going to make 400hp on a chassis thats almost 20 years old.

F- nawzz. A lot of guys think 400hp is easy, truth is it's not.

imho 1g rods and 2g pistons are a great combo for a 400hp car.

Stock 1g rods with 2g pistons are good to about 400hp. The higher comprssion 2g pistons will give you more likely hood of knock under higher levels of boost with pump gas.

You'll want to keep the timing stock. Once you start tuning with link you will be able to adjust timing more accurately. It's tough to say where you want to set your timing. You pretty much advance your timing till you get knock.

spotted a gray 1g Talon in parking lot of JB O'briens in Tigard Wed. night. Had cf hood and English racing decal in window.

I just found out tonight I have to work 4p-10pI'm out :notgood:
