flat out Posted December 1, 2007 Report Posted December 1, 2007 morning fellas i have just sold one of my 3t's and it gives me some money to play with building another 3t. I'm after some pointers at it is going to be a fairly budget build, nothing dodgy just clean and cheap. the motor will have to handel around 12psi of boost at the max the idea will be just rings bearings and gaskets, a new cam will be ground while its apart and i need some help choosing that as i know nothing about choosing a turbo cam, the engine will be build for a daily driver, drifter and most likely some drags. some of the bolt on things will be a ct20 on a 3tgte manifold and a 32/36 weber jetted to suit a turbo application(brad sheriff of boost automotive) can any one give me a few pointers on car specs and anything else i might need to know, I'm told i should ballance the internals so should i get that done and get all the pistons and rods cleaned up and crack tested? this is about the only cam website i know of so can some one please have a look and tell me what one they most recomend http://www.camtechcams.com.au/?q=node/31 any help appreciated thanks casey Quote

styler Posted December 5, 2007 Report Posted December 5, 2007 generally speaking most turbo motors don't run big cams, usually stock or mild as far as i know. for 3tc modification you can't go past toyota3tc.com, the biggest and best 3tc site, also lots of old skool corollas there too:) Quote
JDM_GUY Posted December 9, 2007 Report Posted December 9, 2007 Hmmm...... Well, going turbo isn't going to be a cheap build. A piston that has 8.5-9.0 CR is the best way to go for turbo. Stock or mild cam will do the trick because its going to be forced air induction. I don't know about 32/36 carb combo for it tho really, most people usually do it with efi or dual side carbs with closed box for turbo. Quote
