#127678, "Machine shop question" Sep-10-09 07:10 PM by eclipserstturbo
Okay, I've got my list for what I need for my rebuild. Got a few questions on the job for the machine shop though. I'm going to get them to assemble the rotating assembly and I was wondering if I should buy main and rod bearings or get them to order them when they get into it. I think I posted on this about a month ago, but here's what I'm going for. 98 RS 420a turbo. Already blew my stock motor from the turbo. I'm getting: Eagle Rods Wiseco 8.8:1 pistons bored .020" over block machining 4g63 crower valve springs Vortech SFMU adjustable FPR Head street port/polish Intake mani ported and bored to 60mm w/ modified jeep throttle body. Electronic FCD 340cc injectors Wideband, EGT, and boost gauge MSD DIS 2 My goal is a 300hp semi daily driven but competitive track car.
I CONTRIBUTED TO THE WIKI! ah... turbo. I love the turbo, the boost, the speed, the sound. and its all better when you do it yourself. cheaper too.
