Re: to turbo or not to turbo

since when are we talking about pushrods?? You're going to have a failure in the bottom end....like as in the piston rods or possibly the piston heads....

How do you expect to build a turbo Impala and keep it runnin w/ 400hp or whatever if you didn't even know that the bottom end is going to be weak? I was never talking about pushrods.....those don't matter near as much as the PISTON RODS and the PISTON HEADS. That's where you're going to have a failure.....

This site is Integra specific, but it has good info. You should really take some time out to read it. It will help, trust me.

I'm just tryin to help........

Re: Re: to turbo or not to turbo

BR i looked at them
but really thought about what redimpulse is doing with the stroker they have a turbo build 4.2 ready for a turbo so maybe all i have to do is whip out the Amex and order the holden ecotec 4.2 and slap on the Cat tunning turbo and then the DHP pcm and away i go

that really drives up the price but look at what i'll save on labour

http://www.comeracing.com/products/e...c/42litre_st3/

waits for all the well you can't put a holden motor in a chevrolet rants now lmao
