Hey guys its finally time to do the rebuild for the turbo kit.
Will be getting:
-Arias forged 9.0:1comp
-eagle h-beam rods with arp 2000's or new age bolts?
-iron sleeves
-garrett 770hp turbo
-balanced rods, pistons, crank ect.
-standard head
-mircotech standalone ecu

Wat i want to know is that should i linish the crank?
Wat about my oil pump? should i bump up the pressure relief valve?
Wat bearings should i be looking to replace?
Wat head gasket? copper or one of those new cometic 3 layer ones?
Wat sise injectors?
Wat about a block brace?
Wat about arp head stud and main studs?

These are just the things that i can remember off the top of my head. I'd appreciate any other suggestions but keeping in mind that i'm not rich and cannot afford top of the line parts. I just want this engine to run safely to handle about 16psi (unless recommended higher?)

Thanks!!!

 

Try using the search button there CHUBS

 

u should get the crank polished, it only cost like 35 bucks
def get a new oil pump while u are building, jsut bought mine and they run 220ish from honda
i was going to get honda bearings, they wouldh have ran around 250, but got acl's istead
not sure for boost but id get an oem head gasket

since its sleeved...u wont need the block brace..hope this helped a little

 

thanks buddy!
anyone else who's rebuilt their engine got recommendations?

 

Man, I know you're from Australia and all, but the word is what.

 

my guess is that a block brace is the same as a block guard, and dpepending on what year car you have the h22 is going to be a closed deck motor anyway, so you cannot use a block guard

 

ahhh ok thanks!
Just found out that the arias only come in 9.6:1 and 8.1:1. SHould i get the 8.1's and bump up the compression with a thinner gasket?

 

thats pretty damn low, look into cp pistons, they are very good and well priced. do the search and go to kteller8's website, he some for sale at damn good price
hope this helps

 

i would also get a prodrive oil pump gear
if your gonna be running 16psi and your
replacing your oil pump anyway
