I dont know of anyone elses kit but a 42r kit is REALLY expensive since you need to run dual wastegates to control the monster and that usually means small radiator kit. If its just for street fun I would go with a more controlable turbo like a 37r for what your talkin about. Around the street the High hp of a 42r would be tough to control/enjoy. A 37r Is a good size turbo and you wont need to spend as much for supporting mods. AMS hit over 700 hp with a 37r. How much more do you need?

 

I hear that. I was in Luton England on some business last year and to fill up my rental car was well into the $120 usd mark. Unbelievable. Good thing my company paid for my expenses.

 

Best thing I can say is to contact AMS or Bushur racing and get some quotes and information from them. I would not run a 42R on the street. I would probably go with a 37R on the stroker motor which will still yeild you very impressive numbers and a bit better on the street. Keep in mind suspension, axles, trans, transfer case, clutch. It will be an expensive project but will be a very quick car when you get done with it.

Good Luck and keep us posted as to what you are doing.

 

Good luck getting MOT mate.

 

I don't recommend using ross pistons. I recommend Wiseco over ross. Jackson automachine (jacksonautomachine.com) has been building 4G63's since the beginning and they have told me they have seen way too many consistency problems with this brand. They recommended wiseco.

 

what kinda power do u guys see as safe to run on standard motor? is it an option to use a bigger turbo and keep standard internals? what boost levels are safe?

 

Yeah I was in Glasgow visiting some family out there and it was crazy. I think one fill up this was about 5 yrs ago it was like 90USD. We were in a small little diesel hatchback it was called a opel corsa.

 

please search. (people are putting down over 500 hp on the stock block)

 

I totally agree. Wiseco's tolerances are much much more consistant then Ross. Also with the alloy composition of wiseco it allows you to run a tighter wall clearance because they expand less then a 100% alloy piston. People talk alot of smack about wiseco containing silicone and being weak for that reason. The bottom line is this, any piston faced with detonation will crack, no matter how much alloy content. Just give RRE a call, every motor they build has runs Eagle/Wiseco or Carillo/Wiseco

 

Call Buschur Racing!!www.buschuracing.com . They have a 100% interior GT42R EVO and run 9.60@150MPH!!

 

Yes! ... A GT42 built motor for the street !!!!!!!!



.

 

is it better to run a built 2 litre or built stroker with a gt42r?

 

Yea don't forget the main thing you will need MONEY !

 

You want a stroker. You will need the extra displacement to spool a big slow laggy turbo like the GT42R.

 

You like those AMS GT42 videos , huh ?
