Now, I will still have a stock bottom end. But once it's pulled and if the pistons and rods look good, we're just gonna hone the cylinder walls and re-ring the pistons. If the piston and/or rods don't look to hot (only 90K miles) then my dad can get a full set of stockers w/ rods for $500 (compared to almost 1000 700 eagles and 150 rings) I've got 150 across the board because of shitty rings (leakdown). My car is parked at the shop as of this coming weekend. So we're gonna start soon. I should have my sponsor check in the bank next week also. Now the turbo part. what do i do? I've searched tons. With stock internals i'm thinking 5,6,7,8 psi????? so do i go with a smaller quick 14b or T25 or a larger T3 or 16G? Whats the diff between alains t3 and a 14b mani? just the flange? I can get alain's last mani with a T3 flange or something else? i'm so confused. What kind of BOV? there's so many? Will venting to the atmosphere cause my car to run shitty/rich at idle? Do I need an S-AFC? I'm thinking fuel system, 370cc with S-FMU. Simple. no Megasquirt yet. i'm looking at a wideband and I have a Brand NEW Snap-On SOLUS scanner at the shop for tuning. Exhaust will be handled at a custom shop in town. Do i go 2.5" or 3"? Overall my goal is nothing crazy. I want this car to maybe roll 200+ horsepower and be sexy at the same time. The car is going to be painted and interior stripped and redone for a full summer consisting of 22 car shows.
