Default RE: 2 year Turbo plan.

I was going to go turbo when I started this post but scents then I blew my motor up.
I decided to just get a cam and stronger bottom end in my good motor out of my parts car.

As we all know HorsePower is addictive so maybe a turbo will be in the future. Then, I will have to change out stuff again like the pistons.
Right now, this is about all I can afford to do.

Captansavaho, what under your hood ?

Oops sorry. Hehe you like my setup eh? I was running 10 psi for 2 months then I ran 12 psi and it made 2 pass's and cracked a piston. Then made 2 more pass's and was still driving! But yea it was fun. Then I rebuilt it high compression all motor sohc. Then blew it up because rev limiter ****ed up. Now I am building a stock sohc lower end with dohc top end and srt turbo. On my driveway. I still have the gauges clusters yes. I have a for sale post go look at it.

Want to know how much this build will cost me.
sohc lower end low miles= 150
dohc head=70
dohc ecu=20
sensors and wires for harness=40
Walboro=50
srt-4 turbo=220
gauges and hoses=120
rrfpr=130
exhaust=50
Gaskes and belts 120
Thats about it. that involves a turbo build and a dohc swap with a low mileage lower end. That willl lower the compression also. I plan to run megasquirt on it with 5psi. See what happens. I doubt I can do ms. I am novice with cars.

Not bad at all.

I got the bottom end rebuild w/ 10.5:1 pistons and #14 Crane cam with springs. This should run well untill I switch out the pistons and throw on a turbo.

Man! This is takeing alot of time and money...
