imported_mikepasini

thats a lot of pink

from what ivivie been told, forged internals are your best bet. forged rods, pistons and etc...

sleeves for 12psi is totally unnecessary.
If you're gunna sleeve it, run like 25psi out of a big turbo.
I'd just get some low compression forged pistons (like 9.5:1 CR) and eagle/crower rods.
With forged pistons/rods and some bigger injectors (550cc at least) you will be ok for up to like 18-20psi IMO.....if you're turbo will be efficient at those boost levels.

what turbo are you runnign what hp output you want

I woudl say head bolts thicker head gasket shoudl be good up to 280-300 whp you want more than that in a pink car..?

that turbo looks like a tiny little thing

chris_si98

what turbo?

any whp numbers for us?

imported_plzbeleiveit

id say stick with stock injectors and make 225whp.

imported_Zyepher

please believe it.

imported_Nicotine

i got the 350cc injectors on there (i think from the h22..or are they 345cc)....

it's a master power turbo (the brazilian one)..it's pretty damn big actually. looks tiny in that pic. i'll see if i can find another of me holding it.

it spools very well. and it's already quick. i mostly wanna make the block solid.... maybe get 300hp?

you know b/c 225whp out of a boosted b16 is a good amount of power....haha

He's already got the good prelude injectors so he's already at 345cc's....still definately gunna need bigger injectors though.

IMO you don't need to build your block to get 300whp

imported_Nicotine

hey zeeman...answer your phone in 30 seconds

imported_Nicotine

just ordered:
arp bolts
eagle rods
JE turbo pistons
new piston rings

imported_plzbeleiveit

nice nice... sounds good so far. yeah def get at least 440 injectors and a 255 fuel pump. besides that... just chip the ECU and crome it.

B series do really well with boost on the stock block with only rods and pistons.

BTW, that is some really nice upholstery work. I'm highly impressed with the fit and finish in those pics.

imported_Nicotine

i got the walboro fuel pump already. did that when we initally did the turbo....

gonna source 550cc injectors. gonna have the ecu RE cromed....

it's already cromed and socketed.

and yeah, im impressed with the interior work done. esp the dash. the fitment of the new vinyl looks as good as factory, if not better..

cant wait to install it all. this car is gonna be a beast.
