I have done some searching about dirt oval 1G's, but most of the topics are about setup and handling. I am getting into this as I race dirt modifieds and street stocks. I am tired of seeing all these Honda's at the track with their VTECHHH and bringing home trophies every night in their FWD class.

I would like to state that this class does NOT allow forced induction and the car has to be FWD. Tracks have their own set rules about what you can and can't do with the engine. Most tracks require you to be under a certain compression (compression test).

A mostly stock NA 4G63 is going to be under-powered against the VTECH guys. I know how to make our Turbo 4G63's fast, but I am asking for your help on the NA 4G63. Here is what I am thinking.

Turbo ECU, turbo wiring harness, turbo MAF, turbo injectors, and a turbo injector resistor pack. Basically, I am looking for a turbo DSM shell and rebuild a NA 4G63.

Do I use a knock sensor? I would imagine I would need a knock sensor in order for the car to run half descent. BUT, with the turbo ECU, I will be getting a LOT more timing. Like, damn close to detonation. So with that said, would retarding the timing via the CAS be enough adjustment? Or could I run no knock sensor, thus causing the ECU to pull timing, and get the car to run half descent?

I would imagine DSMlink would be extremely useful. But would it solve all of my concerns?

Is there anything else I have not taken into consideration?

I kind of want to get a 2G turbo shell and drop in the NA 4G63. 2G's are wider, but they are also heavier. And I just think it would be really cool to have a NA 4G63 2G :rocks:
