LXY-642 Posted August 21, 2010 Report Posted August 21, 2010 (edited) no going back now, engine is purchased along with the gearbox. thinking along the lines of a high mounted 35/40 with 0.63 rear to help bring it onto boost, full 3" exhaust, don't think it'll need a 3.5" for the 2 litre, thinking of using my wolf 3d v4 on this simply because it already has an sr20 plug and sr20 tune. these are only thought's atm to. only just decided on the sr20, was down to it or a 12a and really wanted a 12a but could not justify the pricing. so have gone the sr20 and staying with the sr20, will be working out more what turbo i will want to run over however long till i buy it. but 100% high mount lol and don't know about being done before yours lol, my cousin hasn't even started stripping the paint yet let alone repairing the rust, for the bare metal respray.

SLW42 Posted August 21, 2010 Report Posted August 21, 2010 How much work is going into this engine? Like internals cams? Pistons? Rods? Just put a 3076r onto it that should be heaps enough for it, a 3540 will be huge for a 2l man, obviously bigger injectors to help the engine go! Is it getting a custom plenum? How much cash are you spending on the motor itself? Quote
LXY-642 Posted August 21, 2010 Report Posted August 21, 2010 I did say it's only a thought ATM. A 3076 will flow the power I'm after but only just. So if for whatever reason I want more power I'd then have to change the turbo. I also remember you saying you wanted a t04z for only 300hp which a t28 would flow easily lol. And it'll get what it needs. All in due time. For now I just want the car resprayed so I can get the motor in, running and engineered :( Quote
LXY-642 Posted August 22, 2010 Report Posted August 22, 2010 Just heard from the guy about everything it comes with. Here's what he said. Motor comes with alternator, starter motor, wiring loom, ecu, exhaust manifold,engine mount brackets only no engine mounts as they have been sold,no power steering pump or resivoir pretty much what you see in photo Quote
LXY-642 Posted August 25, 2010 Report Posted August 25, 2010 Who here thinks I should get my money back from my cousin and do the rust and respray myself? Something I've always wanted to do myself. Quote

LXY-642 Posted October 24, 2010 Report Posted October 24, 2010 pretty sure my cousin still hasn't touched it. i told him that i wanted it back and he wouldn't let me bring it back until he finishes it. and at this rate i'll have my license back before it's even rubbed back. Quote
