Hey, Im brand new here, so lets start with an introduction. The name is Tyler, and I have a 95 Eagle Talon TSi FWD. About a month ago it decided it was done and got a knock. With tax time here, I figure the new build should be over the top, but I need help this time. Me and my dad pulled the old motor together, but this time I want more then the stock 4G63, this time Im going for a 4G64/4G63 hybrid 2.6L around 450-500 HP for now.
My biggest problem however is, I love my car and working on it, but I have no idea how to figure out what parts I need to get the car to that point. I realize saying that sort of thing might make a few mouths sour, but its true. Ive only rebuilt this stock engine, and this isn't the sort of thing you learn by watching YouTube videos. So Ill list general parts and some questions
4G64 Block To get to my 2.6L goal do I need to look for any specifics in the block, or will any old 4G64 work?
Internals Is it worth saving a paycheck or two and going all out here, or should I get some cheaper stuff (Not dirt cheap, you all know what I mean) and upgrade later when I add a bigger turbo?
4G63 Head I have my current engine, so Ill probably be able to use it on the build. The internals here are also dependent on the turbo I assume, so maybe a slight upgrade? Or save again and go all out?
Intake and Exhaust I figure Ill be getting an intercooler and pipes to my intake, but are there any real upgrades for my intake manifold? Also Ill be getting headers for sure.
Turbo This is a big question I know I need to answer soon as a lot of the build rides on it. What size turbo should I try to get, will a 16G be a good place to start, or might I try 20G?
Fuel This is where nothing makes sense to me, Ive never even thought about changing anything but the injectors, so any advice here would be nice.
I figure thats enough for now, any advice helps. Im not looking for someone to plan out the whole build for me, and hold my hand, I just really need help figuring out what I need to plan for (Thats never been my strong suit). Any links to other threads based on this kind of build are great, and anyone in the area that has built this before would be even better.
I have found this one http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/cylinder-head-short-block/251608-4g63-4g64-2-4l-build-list.html
But the build is for a 2.4L and Im not really sure how itll vary. Ill edit as needed and keep updating regularly. C ya.
