ancullen Posted January 17, 2008 Report Posted January 17, 2008 If I end up getting BJ's stuff I'm considering building a turbo engine for the AE70. Stock Bigport internal, eBay manifold, eBay turbo, 4A-GZE plenum, bigport throttle body, eBay intercooler, cheap piping, 4A-GZE ECU. Should make over 100rwkw on a safe tune, sell the car for $5,000-6,000. :wink: What's more it would only cost about $1,000 to do it - including tuning. It's good when you don't need to worry too much about the results. :cool:
Pure-SX Posted January 17, 2008 Author Report Posted January 17, 2008 Someone would surely buy it lol. Realistically depending on Hi-Techs workload I wouldnt imagine my car would take long to get back on road ay?
ancullen Posted January 17, 2008 Report Posted January 17, 2008 Didn't know it was in at Hi Tech. Or do you mean when you get it turbo'd? I put the KE55 in there to get it running again & tuned and it took a week. For getting a turbo installed, I'd play it safe and estimate three weeks.
Pure-SX Posted January 17, 2008 Author Report Posted January 17, 2008 Hrrm yeah I don't think it would take all that long but as hi-tech are usually really busy would take awhile. I was thinking 2-4weeks.
ancullen Posted January 17, 2008 Report Posted January 17, 2008 If they could work on it solidly, they'd probably get it out within a week. The trouble is they are so damn good at what they do and are hence so popular. BTW - buy the AE92 4A-GZE halfcut they've got in stock. :wink: $2,600 apparently.
wasfishing Posted January 17, 2008 Report Posted January 17, 2008 hitech are hella busy, buit i usually get my car back in 1-2 days
Pure-SX Posted January 17, 2008 Author Report Posted January 17, 2008 lol will call them up as soon as I get a few more parts to get a rough idea etc, Any idea when next motorkhana is on? on dirt lol
ancullen Posted January 17, 2008 Report Posted January 17, 2008 I'll email someone to find out about the motorkhanas. There's a bit of doubt about the series at the moment.
Sirolla[RL] Posted January 17, 2008 Report Posted January 17, 2008 wish i had 2.6k for that half-cut :/ seriously need more power, damn freezing air-cond stealing my revs... or just let me buy that ae82 with the 4age in it and stick it in...
