Advice needed!
I wish you a Happy & prosperous New Year!
I'm planning to buy this engine at the end of February (saving for the purchase). B18C5 stock bore with the foll specs:
BLOX Retainers & Springs
Skunk2 Cam Gears
Type R cams
Fuel rail 1000cc injectors
Sheep Horn stainless steel equal length headers
Tappets cover fitted with anodized blue aluminium threaded fittings for ventilation
Brand new TypeR oil & water Pump
Brand new timing belt with freshly installed upgraded seals entire engine
Racing main & conrod bearings
CP Pistons
Eagle Rods
Block Guard
Fully balanced & blue printed bottom ½
Hondata ECU S300 Hondata
2.5 inch factory bent & coated intercooler plumbing
Tial waste gate
Tial Bov
24 X 12 X 3.5 bar & plate XS Power intercooler
NEED CLUTCH & GUAGES
GT35R dual ball bearing turbo with .82 A/R
NX Express Nos Kit (which I only want to use at the track)
I will be running this with by LSD gearbox. I'm very concerned with turbo lag. My goal is to build a street terror (NOT STREET RACING) daily driver about 400+ to 500+ whp minimum high boost (ideally 500+) & do a few track passes occasionally.
Can the car be tuned to let the turbo spool up at around 2 - 3,000rpm through to 8-9,000rpm? I know the GT35R gives good top-end speed & I think it spools around 4,500rpm (I think this is a bit late). The only prob is that after buying this engine, paying for the installation, tuning & miscellaneous parts, I will be dead broke; I'm a student. So would be unable to buy a GT3076R which I think may be more suitable.
I know that I could sell the GT35R & buy the GT30R, but my problem is the wait in between this (as I would not have another car to drive). Please advise!
