hi guys..

i am planning on running a bigger turbo on the stock block..something like a 3065.. at around 24~25 psi..

since this is going to be a little laggy..i am thinkin of raising my rev limit a bit more..i have done the following to the head:

GSC S1 cams
Supertech Single titanium springs and retainers
ARP head bolts

i have everyother bolt-on mod i could think off...

so..what should i set my rev limiter to?? 8500??


Thanks in advance

 

i wouldnt suggest revving that high on the stock rod bolts.. upgrade those then go for it

 

here is my complete mod list..:

S1 mivec cams
Greddy Fmic
Greddy upper and lower I/C pipes
Exedy twin
Toda Exhaust manifold
AMS intake manifold
Greddy profec bspec boost controler
apexi intake+induction box
invidia o2 housing
custom 3" tbe
ralli art thermostat
Walbro 255lph fuel pump
Sard fuel pressure regulator
750cc injector
Agency power fuel rail
Agency power engine mounts
Ingals Engine torque dampner
Defi gauges
ARP head studs
Titanium Supertech Valve springs and retainers


what rod bolts would i need?
i was thinking if i needed to play with the internals..i might as well just save up a little more cash and buy a stroker block from GSC...:S

 

My log showed 79xx, on my 129mph pass.... I need to lower that a bit.

 

so are you telling me that even 7900 is too much for the stock rods?

 

I know a personal friend with a 2003 evo 8 wiht over 100k miles that revs to 8500rpm with stock head.

 

WHAT!!!

are you serious...

i dont know if i should really do it..i dont really need a hole in my block...



btw..i love your avator

 

Hey I use to go all the way to 8k and the last couple of passes to 8200rpm to avoid shifting to 5th and it did not make much of a difference I still didn't make it to the end of the track before the fuel cut off , can't blame everything on the high revs but it was part of the reason why I now have a stroker honestly like vwjeff suggested don't go past 7800rpm I had a 35r and wanted to stay in the power band you won't need to go that high with your turbo

 

as stated by Phenix!



enough said....

this is one of our customers car. HKS 280s and stock valvetrain.

 

^^ wow.....

so eduardo....you are saying its safe?

 

every 1/4 mile run that i have ever logged of my car, RPMS peaked 8100. i'm running GSC 272s with stock valvetrain

personally, i wouldn't recommend revving up that high with stock rod bolts.

i would say keep it under 8000, until you upgrade those rod bolts.

 

Thanks senior!!

 

And when you upgrade rod bolts?
which RPM is safe?

 

thats a good question right there...

 

keep it under 8k, they are very cheap insurance thats for sure.. u can get them off buschur for $40 plus shipping
