I have a 90 talon tsi that I am currently putting a 2.3 Eagle stroker kit into.
This is a Rally car, so limited as to the turbo inlet size. It is open class, and I plan on running approx 25ish lbs boost.
My question is related to valve choice. I am trying to decide whether to upgrade the valves or not.
The stock valves are good, but I have no experience with whether I may be burning up the exhaust valves.
It seems that with the restriction on the turbo, I will never get above low 300s bhp. Approx 328 by my newbie calculations... Not sure how this affects things regarding heat...
I do plan to run rally anti-lag via ecmlink.
Any thoughts on whether stock valves are OK? I cannot find a ton of benefit to changing them myself.
Thanks!
