8921, Couple Questions
Posted by Dualgen2, Nov-06-01 03:51 PM
First off I have a 97 GS w/ 65 K miles on it. At what point is the mileage to high to turbo a 420A? I noticed wakeboard or whatver his name is blew his motor cause his mileage was to high. What mileage was he at? I plan on getting either a Star or HRC Stage 1 before the end of the year and a couple months after that, once I get used to turbo and get some more $, I plan on getting Blitz Intercooler and up the boost. Im trying to get mostly Blitz, have Blitz body kit in garage and would get BOV and turbo timer as well when I get Stage 1 and Boost Controller after Intercooler and of course Blitz stickers since they add 10 HP each, 15 HP for windshield. What internals do u guys recomend to run at Stage 2 around 10 PSI( pistons, rods what else?). This is also a daily driven car so Id keep boost lower most of time around 6-8. Id appreciate all the advice I can get. Thanks and feel free to IM me whenever ... dualgen2

Any idea how much pistons, rods, rings and pins would cost including installation about? plus Im sure Blitz internals will cost more but if I can get discount for buying all Blitz at once Ill get Blitz. Might try to get sponsored, if thats possible. Also what sites do you guys recommend for internal mods. Thanks
