Looking good, when do you think you will have it up and running?

[WabTheKing]

just finding parts thats holding me up, v6 rad etc only a good couple of weekends work to do on it really

[Greg_S]

Let me know how you get on with the V6 rad, may be a good route for me to go using the AAN manifold

[Jeffer]

Looking good mate. What turbo are you planning on running with that?
What power are you looking for?

Cheers

@jeffer duno yet still with the std k24, thats next years plan! ive pretty much spent as much as i want to this year

ive rebuilt all the head over the past couple of months,
repairing two cracks in the head
10new inlet valves
RS2 head gasket
valve stem seals
valve guides
took a lick off with the surface grinder


next year when i do the bottom end im thinking i wanna go down the stroker route with a fairly small hotside turbo to keep the poke at the bottom end im still finding out more info at the mo -

this going with the usuall extras
forged rods
tubular em
motorsport fuel pump
higher volume injectors

wanna try and stick to dizzy and standard ecu

aiming for bout 450bhp

anyone got any recomendations to throw in?

not into massive turbos with loadsa lag

Wab, all the effort you've put in is beginning to show. The car absolutely :rocks: And it aint even finished yet.

Top work mate.

Think about the hybrid KKK/Garrett turbos on 034EFI. With a K24 sized hotside you'll never get into silly power figures but matched with a T04e compressor you'd be looking around 400bhp IMO - with 7A cams. Cost and complexity is higher than RS2 route but you should get better top end power with the hybrid properly sorted.

Reckon on a big intercooler (gotta feeling the RS2 item won't like anything much more than 400bhp as a rule of thumb) and 450cc injectors will suffice for a 400bhp target. Slightly bigger injectors or an adjustable FPR will give you more fuelling headroom.
