Might I suggest the GT2871R as a suitable option. The spool up with the .64 a/r option would be perhaps close to the Evo3, but with way more top end. In twin turbo application they should be capable of 800bhp.

I'm not nescessarily saying to go with 1000cc, but overkill doesn't really matter in this case unless there is a large price difference between, say 720 and 1000. And actually, people who are looking to max out turbos the size of an FP3052 and large on pump will want something close to 1000cc...
The reason for getting large injectors when someone gets DSMLink is not to size them the smallest possible, but the largest possible because one will never need to upgrade again. Many people will want more at some point, and with Link large injectors will idle like small ones and won't have to...
I have the WS with 2.5"dp and 3"hfcat. It looks real nice. Sounds plenty deep to me, and never ricey. I love the way it sounds and have been complemented several times for the sound. The piping is 3"id which fits inside bigger piping a couple feet from the muffler. The piping is shared with...
Personally, I do kinda like the angle, looks mean and performance oriented. But that sort of thing is just a personal preference, so you won't be able to please everyone with the angle. However, I understand why they have such an angle, and I can appreciate that. I am looking past the looks...
I used to have a GPS in my car that would give me the actual speed I was going. With my factory 215/50/17 tires, at about 75 on the speedo the car was actually going closer to 70mph. The speedo's are off by a percentage. What that means is the faster you go, the more your speedo will be off...
That is a gorgous set up, especially for the money. You have some great braking potential.
What compound are you running? Maybe switching to something like Porterfields would help get the most of that system. I don't remeber who, but someone in my club who does road race just has big rotor...
I'm assuming that since your car is a '93 it is a 7bolt. While it is possible to successfully rebuild a 7bolt, it is difficult.I have rebuild some 7bolts, and a 6bolt after those attempts. The problem lies in the thrust bearing, of course. It is not to difficult to line up the the thrust...
Good job! You got the 12! Nice that your track had good traction that night! :)
As said, track prep will make a big difference in the pressure you need to run. Wish NED would have anything close to that kind of traction on anything other than a musclecar event. They aren't favorable to...
If you're going to have problems with anything on a 7bolt rebuild, it will be the thrust bearing. The thrust is especially susseptible to low oil pressure. Make sure that the thrust is not worn from the low oil pressure and that there is addequite pressure after you put it back together...

If you would like to keep your 2g oil pump, pan and oil pickup, you can do this method, it isn't to hard. I did it, though not sure I'd do that again, think I may do Magnus method next time...
What you need ot be carefull of when rebuilding any 7bolt is the main girdle. Make sure you use a good shop that can properly align the cap, especially the center cap part where the thrust bearing is, and make sure they use a torque plate to alignbore it. so far most walked cranks i've seen...
Perhaps they have their own wierd brew of the Evo? Dunno about them. I have also seen that info before from SB. I agree that the Evo is better than the Big, as I said, I would get that one next time. It wasn't readily available when I got my big a couple years ago. Wouldn't you agree that...
Yes, the evo and the big are different, but not hugely. I have spoken with Turbochargers and they say that the hype is just that. There is not a large enough difference in the compressor to even rate it more than the big for hp ratings. Most of the spool up is due to the turbine housing. The...
A buddy of mine with the FP Big28, 2.5 downpipe and crush ment exhuast, 272, 550s, afc, 255 and stock smic dynoed 295hp at the wheels with about 23-21psi. Then he blew up his engine racing a Stang on the highway. :|
Both turbos have virtually the same compressor wheel. The marginally bigger...
There are no problems with what you want to do. I have put 2g rods and pistons in a 1g 7bolt. There are no differences, same crank, same rods, different oil squirters. :thumb:
My question for either FP or others with their cams. How are the spool characteristics and power bands of both the fp1 and fp2 cams? Supposedly the 264 spools the same as stock, and the 272 spools slightly slower than stock. I'm looking for the best spool possible with as little compromise in...
You might find it usefull to check these links out about using a Hyundai front cover to save effort with the crank sensor.

You should get an external gate if you wish to control boost well. I know peeps with greens. Even those who had internals have switched in external in order to control boost better. The internals may work, but not well for a street car with pump gass.
O2 mounted would defintily be easier if...
Sounds like the next big hit country soung!;)I've done it both ways. I've rebuilt the 7bolt. Now I'm going 6 bolt. Believe me, just do it right the first time. Get the 6bolt. It doesn't cost anymore to go 6 bolt is you can locate one that is already running, that is short block, than...
My sentiments exactly. Evo or STi
Actually, you could get one off of Ebay or something for less than 30 and use the additional $5k to make on sick ride. or this place called Evolution imports gets JDM Evo's for a reasonable price, including used ones for under 30k. :dsm:
174 whp is not bad considering its awd. Those R34's are pretty nice. I wouldn't mind one of those! supped up VR6 and AWD and host of other goodies. A little on the expensive side I think, however. Any word on how those perform?
I'm a DSM guy. But I do know that Vdubs do have fairly efficient drivlines, and it is true that they do under rate their horespower frequently. However there are more factors to going fast thab horsepower and weight. So it is possible to have that power and not be as fast as a GST.
lol
That's great!
Have you had the block alignbored for studs? It might not be as important on a 6bolt as a 7bolt since its a better block, but studs distort the block different than the factory main bolts do. It can lead to misalignment and possible crankwalk. Might want to check with your...
That seems to me more of a pain to me than just drilling and tapping a hole. Just use an air hose to try to blow some of the filings out. Besides, they will only be in the water lines, not the oil, they won't really hurt anything there, even the Mitsu tech said that. It didn't hust my engine...
lsd does not eliminate tire spinning, just improves traction because you get a better power spread to both wheels. when you do a burn out peeps won't be shouting peg leg. Plus where I live roads suck and lowering isn't good since the car already hits and a stiffer suspension would be a...
Did you grease the metal on metal moving parts? More precisely, the TOB on the shaft, the TOB on the fork, the pivot ball on the fork, etc., :)not anything on the clutch, of course.

Crankwalk? Its a gamble. My eclipse had over 130k on it and no crankwalk. :thumb: The engine was done in when I had someonelse do the timing belt and it broke 1500 miles later. Also bought a 97 Talon for my fiancee and it had major walk at 102k. The crank was moving...
You don't have to tap into a line, just the block. Look on the front of your 2g block. On the left side you will notice a fitting in which one of the turbo water lines goes in with a banjo bolt. You will need to spray some liquid wrench and carefully remove that fitting. Then you will need...
3/8-18 NPT tap and use a 9/16 drill bit.
I think it's easier to just drill and tap the hole. If you switch to first gen you have to swap everything because they where the reverse flow of the second gens. Good luck which ever way you go. :thumb: :dsm:
Actually, with a slick track you are trying to improve traction. So you actrually want to lower tire pressure. The reason is that when you lower the pressure, the tires have more rubber on ther ground. More tire on the ground equals more traction.
However, if you are autox or road racing...

Call ARP at 800-826-3045 or 805.339.2200 and they will be able to give you the exact torque.
and I agree with what 4wd-Eclipse did. Use a step up set of torque so there is a more even torque load. Also you should retorque the head as he did. But ARP told me that you don't have to break the...
actually, they b series is not stronger than the H series. They both run into a problem iwth the newer ones. 97+ H series has open deck design, as do the B series. That is the weekness and the reason for the sleeves. Sleeves only strengthen the block; they close the deck and can handle more...
Just realized that I double posted. I thought the first post didn't go through. Sorry.Yeah, boost could be a problem. but I bet it would be a lot easier to control with an electronic boost controler that had the capability of controling 2 seperate selonoids.

According to the numbers on this page from Wiseco, if you where to take a 4G63 and bore it 60 over and put in a 4G64 crank, you would essentially have a 2.4L, or 80 for a true 2.4L

exactly how will it not fit? Bolt holes not lining up? won't go on all the way? You have a cluthc alignment tool to make sure its lined up if its not? :confused:
