I posted more information about the stroker a few posts up. Something else you want to know?

The GT40 was on this car same car when it had the 2.0 liter engine in it. It was not nearly as fast even with more boost. The car picked up .6 seconds and 10 mph. Some of this could be the tune too honestly. I road tuned the last set-up and this time tuned it on our AWD MD.

On that same subject I have tuned 3 of our own cars on the street and then dyno'd them. I found nothing on the dyno for additional power. I am sure the last set up/tune was atleast extremely close to be at its best.

will you be making a GT40R kit anytime soon

 

dave was the 2.0 liter that matt previously had stock or your stage 3 shortblock? if it was the built 2.0 how come his engine died after only 7k miles?

 

David,

How much torque did the car make on the last run?

 

Are you going to buy some cores so you can do "hot swap" stroker setups on customer cars? Also, how about full 2.4 liter setups using the 2.4 liter block as well as the crank?

Later,

Keith

 

congrats on the run!

is it safe to rev so high on the stroker though?

 

Couldnt have said it any better myself. I cant wait to see the numbers fall and the videos post..

 

If Shep uses a Buschur stage III block I would say it is good enough. He also said the car was only run on c16 and high boost only for 7K miles what more do you want?

 

The pistons that David has designed are really innovative. A few key design features make for a very imprssive stroker. The rod angle is optimized due to wrist pin placement, the dish is very well designed to tale full advantage of the quench area - in fact its darn near perfect. I have seen some great results on the Buschur stroker equiped cars out there, I was not one of the first to hop on the band wagon on this, I waited to see what kind of results and reliability would be obtained. From what I have heard 9,000 rpms plus has been obtained and out of the many strokers out there not one has failed to date.

After I tuned one of these on a GT35R equiped evo a few weeks ago I knew it was amazing stuff !!!!!!!! It was an amazing feeling I was literally chiping the tires on the 2 - 3 upshift. It feels like you have a V-10 under the hood.

It obviously makes for a great street evo - I have to see how it works out at the track. These results really have me excited.

 

The engine was our Stage 3 Two liter. 7,000 miles with over 30psi of boost, nothing but C16 and an aggressive tune in the car, rev limiter was set at 10,000 rpm. If 7,000 miles isn't enough on a car treated like that then maybe have someone other than us build you engine

I have actually bought some new cores at this point from Mitsubishi. You can get an engine from us with no core for an additional $1250. I can also build an engine and have it ready for when a car comes in to cut down on time. I do not like sending engines out and waiting on cores though. Too many headaches and too many LONG waits on getting cores back.

I can do a GT40 kit, the price is up there and I don't think it is going to make a great street turbo. It would have to be with a custom header too. Kit would run around $4,000.

So, how much does the machining and assembly cost if someone has you build up a 2.3 and have it sitting there ready to drop in? I know that a stage 3 2.0 liter would be $3000, how much more for the 2.3 liter? Also, how much would Dan charge on a remove and replace to swap the motor out?

Thanks,

Keith

 

The stroker bottom end is $3500, whether I ship it or pre-build it here to put it in. That requires a core. If your car comes here I get my core when we pull your engine.

Dan charges $1500 labor to remove the old engine, disassemble it, clean EVERYTHING, re-assemble everything and put it back into the car. This does not include gaskets, $300, fluids $100, timing belt tensioner $145.

144 is flying!

 

UPDATE!!

Matt went back to the track, only an 1/8th mile track though.

On the 10.26 pass he ran 6.83 at 110.02 in the 1/8th.

This weekend he ran 6.72 at 111.95 in the 1/8th!! No telling what the 1/4 mile would have been but I have to say it would have been VERY close to a 9 second run.

I asked if he ordered his drag radials, he told me, "No, I'm not going to, I think I can put the car in the 9's on the regular radials I have."

I wish you luck Matt!!

David can you PM me with the breakdown of prices of the entire set-up? All I need is the entire block already assembled, I would be giving a core back since I have no use for 3 engines, since I also have a 2.4 block laying around. I would be giving the 2.0 back as a core.
