pump gas or race? Good to see you running nice times, I have a similar setup(not running though). Its gonna be fun having the 50 trim on the 2.4, it will feel like having a 16g again, only with a lot more punch. Although I do want to go with a little bigger turbo, but the 50 trim should definitely suffice until that time.
 
I ran a 12.1 on pump at 21psi. I put race gas in turned the boost up to 26psi then my 60' went from 1.7 to 1.85, I was getting mad wheel spin into 2nd gear. The torque is wild. :thumb:

Oh yeah, now I also have to decide WHICH 50 trim to get! Im very close to AMS, but I heard theyre expensive?

look at their site and compare prices

www.automotosports.com

if nothing else you could give them a call and talk with them about your setup..they've done plenty of cars and know what works
 
I like the sound of the 50 trim with super fast spool, but I wouldn't mind waiting a little longer for full buost in the name of more power... what turbo would be like one size up from the 50 trim?
 
a very common turbo for the 2.4 is the scm 61 (56 trim with t350 turbine wheel). From talking to a few people, full boost htis around 3800-4000, and its capable of putting down a lot of power.

yeah...the 60-1 is kinda between the sc61 and the 50 trim..the 60-1 will spool a little quicker but not be capable of as much power (sc61 uses the newer wheels, 60-1 uses the older ones)

60-1 specs=Inducer=2.324 Major=3"...flows 61lb/min capable of 500-550whp
SC61 specs inducer=2.416" major=3.227" unsure of the flow but will make 550-low 600's

of course there will be someone putting down numbers out of this range with either turbo, but generally this is about right
 
I like the 50trim because you can run a lot of boost on pump gas. I'm pushing mine to 22psi on pump. That's more in its efficiency zone. Once you get over 20psi on pump it makes a whole lot of power. :thumb:
 
Ummm Im not sure of the technicalities of it, since my uncle (engine mechanic) is building it. Ill have to ask him later, but Im sure that its the same block externally, its just 2.4L instead of 2.0L. Ill get the info later.

Well, just a heads up, usually when you use a 2.4 block you can keep the 2.4 crank and everything and have a 2.4 liter. Or you can use a 2.4 block with a 2.0 crank and have a 2.14 liter. And last, you can have a 2.0 block with a 2.4 crank and make a 2.3. So to get a 2.3 from a 2.4 block isn't exactly a standard dsm engine building practice.
 
Ohhh ok. Im not one to know engine crap like that, hes the one whos teaching me (and you guys ;) ). But, yes, were using the 2.4 block with a 2.4 crank. So I guess its 2.4L?

What is everyone else running for 2.3L? A 2.3L block and crank?
 
Is a stroker bad for a FWD?

Also did you guys buy your stroker as a kit?
Where?

What's a good turbo set-up for a street/some track daily driven GST??

Also do i need to put in cams??

Thanks
 
did you guys get the re-manufactured crankshaft?

Is there risk of crankwalk on a 7-bolt?

What will happen with a 2.3 and 14b, FWD GST?

Thanks!
 
I pieced mine together... got a reman 7 bolt crank in a 1g 7 bolt block with eagle rods and JE custom pistons, the only special order part you need though is the Pistons. You can actually use stock rods if you're making a 2.3L. The 2.3 will spool your 14b super fast, like 2400-2500rpm max for full boost. It will probably over run the turbo in the high rpms.

Can't wait to see your 7bolt 2.3l. :thumb:
I was gonna do a 7bolt also, but oppertunity got me a 6bolt.

Ya, me too... the motor's been in the car for 3 weeks, but the damn ACT clutch broke and took out my bell housing too....... so now I'm battling w/ act to get me a new bellhousing. I only got 247 miles on the damn thing :cry:
 
herostar so you used a 4g64 reman crank and the pistons for the kit?

Where has everybody else bought theirs? or did you put it together too?
 
I had Polk Performance build mine when my crank broke. He had everything on the shelf and ready to go. He built the motor and had it in the car in a week, and that was tellin him to take his time on it.

I pieced it together myself... 4g64 crank, Eagle Rods, and JE Stroker pistons
 
did you use a used crank?
what did you do to prepare the crank?

So all i need is the crank, rods and stroker pistons?

Thanks

Yes, I got a remanufactured crank from here

The crank came polished and with bearings, the only preparation I had was that I had the whole rotating assembly balanced. Yes, Crank, Rods, and Pistons are all you need to run the stroker. You will only need to trim a little bit off of your main caps and block for clearance of the crank. The spots are hard to explain, but it's basically test-n-fit.
