I been lurking around and reading. you guys have alot of info. I was building this for a shop project and would like to know what I should expect and what turbo to go with. Its a lsv 2L built. golden eagle rods, je custom pistons 9-1 balanced crank. The head is a itr with dual valve springs, retainers, new valves. port job. I still need to get the cams inline next. I wanted to get at least 400 hp out of it. More on race fuel. There is also 2 n.o.s. system wired into the car for the i.c. and a direct port on the manifold. I would like to use that too. Its going to be a street-strip car. The car will be tuned on hd-300.




If I don't need to buy a 1300 turbo that would be great. I also will be keeping the ac/ps. Both can be removed at the track. Just wanted to see what the top dogs here think. Open to everyone opinion

 

400 could be had form a t3t4.
60-1?
new gt's will blow your budget
a t3t67ho is a light switch. no power down low, but all up top.

if he is spraying nitrous at it i bet it will spool fine donw low

 

yeah maybe but on stock sleeves, id rather see a turbo with spool characteristics better suited to do it without the spray.

 

84mm bore block on stock sleeves?

 

those pistons dont look like 84mm... they look like an 81mm with those intake valve reliefs like that

ya i know but in his post he said "2L LSV" and i seriously doubt he some crazy stroker kit/tall deck I assumed he meant an 84mm bore and 89mm stroke. regardless, it's not an 84mm bore and if it is an 84mm bore on stock sleeves I doubt he'll touch the 400+whp mark for long..

I caught that myself. There is no way in hell thats a 2 liter unless you have a stroker crank which I am sure you would have listed if so but even then its iffy.

with a dual nitrous system you could get a lot from just a regular setup to keep AC and PS. My kit is for sale. Check the sig

But yes a regular t3/to4e would get you 400 whp with spray easily and they are cheap. I guess you have everything else such as oil feed, charge pipes, injectors to name a few items?

 

its a stroker, crank and a couple other things. if it 500 over budget I will do it. Why cheap out now. I will go into futher details about the motor when I update the post. hard to do from a cell phone. The car will see only spray at the track and it will not be that much. The motor is going into a 4 door teg. And bisi is going to tune it. hopefully you guys will see it at boti events next year. Oyea. I don't street race so hopefully it last.

 

what crank and stroke? is it also made custom by golden eagle, just like your rods?
also, what kinda custom work is done to those pistons?
regardless, your stock sleeves will only hold so much, instead of having golden eagle make you custom rods and crank you should of had them sleeve the block and used the extra money to buy off the shelf rods, pistons, and a stock crank.

 

I say... T3-60-1 from Garrett w/ 82 ar housing. that will be your best bet for the money!

 

hope youre not using supertech oil filter
