Thank you! That's great info!Not yet. And I won't be ordering pistons just yet, but thanks for the heads up!

Have you had the cylinders checked before you start ordering pistons? Since you're going forged you'll still want a proper PTW clearance. You might have to go .020 over or larger to get a good cylinder geometry.Forged isn't strictly necessary...

That is a great list! You will need to run over it maybe once again, but it covers about everything you will need for a 300 hp build.As for the 'may not need' parts:- An MDP is not necessary, a MAP sensor better, but it's still only going to...

Thank you, you are absolutely right! Better safe than sorry! Don't know what's wrong because the link works just fine for me, but here's a google sheets copy:OBS: a stock GST build would be a lot cheaper.

You should be proud of the thorough work you are doing getting ready for the turbo build! It's always better to get all the information and have a complete plan first, then start the build, many people do it the other way around and left with a...

Update:Disassembled the engine to figure out why it was burning oil... turns out it had fissures in two of the cylinders. Long story short, found a good deal and replaced the engine; Block machined; New rod bearings; New piston rings; New water...

Update:Got new MAF, there's no MAF error anymore, car idles better. Did a smoke test yesterday and the inlet manifold is leaking. Will amend that today/tomorrow! =)About the oil pressure meter not moving, haven't tackled that yet. But I...
