The comprehensive 4age thread

[Hook]

I not saying don't rebuild. I just saying instead of looking for all these miscellaneous parts (piston, crank etc.), u could get a block in good condition in d boo, so all u do is change seals/gaskets/rings/bearings etc. and have a perfectly good engine in a shorter time than it takes to go hunting for assorted internal parts.

And it's better than taking a chance on a cat-in-bag head and block (altho you may be lucky to score a damn good one at a reasonable price, but that don't happen too often)

Unless somebody has a block on the ground and they willing to let go of the piston and crank for small money, I see rebuilding a complete FU block as a more viable option.

Anthony Soprano buy a 4afe engine and box , do a cold air intake , end exaust ,and u just as fast as any 20v for 1/2 the price too

I knew you couldn't resist acting like a 12y/o for too long......check me when you grow up...I out...

I am thinking about buying a whole engine but i will check out just buying the head and block and see if that will work out better but i am also looking to get a new gearbox so if i get a good deal on an engine and gearbox, i may go that way. I'm looking for the cheapest and quickest option out of my problem.

TRDcorolla, I'm doing research online in Malaysia atm, plus picking up some tips from the "37*" Aussies

Im using 20v silvertop stock standard, with 50 shot nos ,160hp on dyno dynamic.fren of mine pump 100 shot in his standard silvertop ,190hp on dyno dynamic,no damage on the engine using untill now,tuner is very important bro.

Hmmm

[A172]

^sweet

what kinda afr's dem fellas getting?

[eliteauto]

A172, getting them fellas to explain everything is pressure, more so because of the local slangs and broken english, but the guy who posted that agreed on my design and rpm window, still haven't found out if they're doing direct port or single fogger, lots still to learn

[A172]

link for the forum?

[TRDcorolla]

bess, at least its some head way to knowing what can be done..... btw wat ddi the aussie dude say?



really wanna hear his take on that lol

[eliteauto]

^^I posed a question to them on the water/meth setup still waiting on a reply

[A172]

checked it out, not much tech talk thus far...

some pretty basic questions however:

Hmm I'm also considering using NOS in my 20V ST and mine's automatic lol, just curious as to what setups are being used and if they're being done on the stock ecu thanks

how would the stock ecu know when nitrous is being injected into the engine and how would it know when to pull back timing, and how much?

what octane rating are you planning to use?

lastly ,as i asked before, do you have any idea what kind of afr you're gonna run whether wet or dry shot? I'm surprised that thread reached 2 pages and not a mention of that (u know...the most important variable ).....the English seemed pretty fine to me.

Feedback appreciated.

[eliteauto]

A172, sounds like you might know a thing or 2 any advice you wanna share, so far I've heard of only one local BT using NOS and I haven't been able to contact the guy, any help would be valuable

[A172]

I don't mind sharing a bit of info from the little I've learnt personally....but before I add anything more, lemme ask you this first:

all the questions i asked above.....are basic tuning procedures that any tuner should know...

I'm asking you now, what's your personal take on those things.....you must have asked yourself these things before, right?

i also know of 1 currently undergoing a nos addon and haltec addon waiting to see results.

[eliteauto]

NOS and management...very nice

this particular project is heading in the right direction .....but i hope its not a haltech interceptor their using lol , better they go S/A and done.

another concern is the strength of the B/T con rod.

it looks like they might have to limit their nitrous to small 'shots', under high octane..

[eliteauto]

Zeriam, is the guy using a single fogger or direct port setup for the nitrous?

[eliteauto]

hearing some positive things about water/meth, gonna do some research, anyone here using it in a N/A application?

[A172]

^^from the look of things in this thread you got a LOT of research/ learning to do still....starting with the basics of performance tuning...

don't hesitate to ask questions here, no matter how basic...srsly...

good luck with the plans man.
