93885, 2.4 engine and the STAR turbo kit, hood problem ? Posted by alain95i4, Mar-17-06 12:51 AM
hey guys I'm currentling helping a local 2gnt owner ysterday we bought the 2.4 engine from Schoeby on ASOG, with me he has the other Avenger with a 2.4 in Canada, well no more he's parting his car
we will open the engine and put srt-4 internals in it and the guy is going turbo with his new engine
now decision time HRC or STAR , with the 2.4 the HRC 16g may be too small and the t3/t4 of the STAR kit will spool earlier than on the 2.0 and may be a better choice but will the hood close with the STAR kit ?
someone know ? I think Dino had that kit before and onebaddsm98 was one of the first to do the 2.4 swap and he bought one of my turbo flange to do something custom because of hood issue also but I don't know if he had the STAR or the NER kit

If you use the stock Deltagate, the hood closes fine. it's my TiAL that hits the hood.

Just to make this a bit clearer. Using a star manifold with a TiAL WG, you WILL have issues with hood clearance. Correct?

you will not be able to hook up the upper port of the tial.. it will hit the hood.

The body of my TiAL hits my hood.
