This is Dustin from BC. We have the 2.5L and the 2.6L kits available for the 4g64 block. The 2.5L uses the 102mm stroke and the 6.141" rod and the 2.6L uses the 106 stroke and the 6.000" rod. What are your HP and RPM goals?
 
BC had some growing pains years ago as a new company.

BC cams are a good working cam, but they seem not to be as drop in friendly as some other cams. So it is highly suggested that adjustable cam gears are used with them.

But cams are only one part of the equation, you have to account for the intake, TB, turbo and exhaust

Yeah I had a set of BC cams like 6 years ago in my evo 8 , before I really know there problems. with how far off from center they were. Well when I had the motor put together and the shop degree'd the cams OMG Exhaust was off 7* and intake was like 4*. So I had to buy adjustable cam gears to get them correct. I just don't want to waste money on a stroker kit and have it be crap. I checked maperformance and they got some nice kits with well known names. I might go that route and they actually cheaper then BC
 
To me, stroking a 4g64 doesn't make much sense. They're already limited in rev and horsepower due to the rod angularity. Add even more stroke and the rods are honestly ticking time bombs. That's why many big power builds use destroked 4g64's.

That is good to know. I don't do anything until I have talked to tons of peoples , read a ton of reviews and hear all points of view. I hate wasting money LOL . My current setup is making the power goals I set , but that came with lots of reading. This next step will be done the same way.
 
I have also been looking into this throughout the past couple weeks. The only real thread I can find with someone running the kit is Mr. Alex and his evo. My question to Dustin is, if it can rev to 9k+ why is no one big also offering the kit or running it themselves? I'd be seriously interested in purchasing a kit if I could get some solid proof on the potential and longevity of the kit. Thanks

We used to offer the 106 stroke with the 6" rod but the increased stroke along with the shorter rod limit the RPM of the kit to around 7800. We still have a couple of the 106 cranks in stock but We now have the 102 stroke with the 6.141" rod which is designed for the 8500-9000 RPM. We also offer the destroker set ups as well.
I just sent you a PM . If any one has any questions or I can be of any assistance my direct line is 619749-9018 ext 101 or you can email me at [email protected]
 
Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. Would the 106 crank and 6" rods spool a turbo capable of 500-600whp fast enough to not seriously limit the powerband? I'm thinking 16g 300whp street setup characteristics taken to another level. My car will see 70% of its time on the street with only occasional track use. Gobs of torque down low and quick spool to eat a vette or two when I need to :)

So looked at Maperformance. They got some nice destroker kits. and right at 2k. You cant go wrong. That may be the route I will go.
 
The piston needs a deep skirt. Youre talking some heavy side loads from the angle of the rod. Much faster wear on the piston and cylinder bore. I know you are set on it, but if anything i would DE stroke the 2.4. Higher revving, more power, lasts a lot longer. Just some of the benefits.

Yeah my mind is pretty made up on destroking the 2.4. Sounds like a it will be a great setup.
