Hey guys my car spun a bearing and I decided to build the bish lol so anyways long story short. The car currently has and HKS Hi Power exhaust and exedy twin and Xs FMIC with Stock piping.

Part being purchased are:

Maley H Beam Rods
Manley Crankshaft 33 lbs
CP Pistons 9:1 compression Ratio
ACL Main Bearing
ACL Rod Bearing
ACL Thrust Washers
ARP Headstuds
Cometic Head Gasket

Currently I know with the stock turbo 500 whp is not reachable but i wanna know if the bottom end will make the power when the other issues are adress such as the turbo,cams,hard piping and tuning.

Also how much boost do you guys think this bottom end setup can handle with the stock turbo?

 

Have you bothered to do ANY research on this? The stock bottom end is good for 500awhp, so why wouldn't upgraded internals be?

 

Well that's a good point maybe I should have asked how much Hp would that setup be good for? even though my goal is 500 whp for now lol

 

ok wow more info please 2.0 or 2.3??? parts sound good i would think in the neighborhood of 700+ i dont think your trying to get crazy with it so that will be plenty maybe you should consider 2.3 improve spool and no point in getting built motor if you keeping stock turbo LOL.

 

If you have a correctly rebuilt bottom end, you can do a lot more than 500whp. most people can get that with a different turbo, and big injectors.

 

i did it with cams, fp red and meth

 

you have over 600 posts on this forum and still have no idea how to search? what is wrong with people asking all these questions everyday it makes no sense to me.

 

It's a 2.0L and I am not planning to keep the stock turbo it will be upgraded enentually when the motor is broken in. also reason being why i never went with a 2.3 is because i have no confidence in anyone boring my block here. I have seen to moany cars here have problems after stroking their motor

 

Has it ever occured to you that maybe I wanted to hear ppls opinion on my specific setup!!!! and maybe let me know if there is anything i should change about it being that this is my first time doing this.

 

lol send block out then and get it done or load it up on truck and take it to another machine shop out of state if you have to.

 

im just saying the 2.3 is better in majority of cases unless your strictly a drag racer then i understand completely

 

I know a 2.3 will increase spool and add torque but if i was not in a hurry to get the car back up and runnig then i honestly would box it up and send it off to AMS but I feel the 2.0 will satisfy me

 

sooooooooooo you say for now. lol

 

honestly man I plan to keep it that way lol

 

You def have the right idea ,Built 2.0 ,1000cc injectors , Double pumper , FP flack , 280 cams and your on your way to 500whp tomorrow !!! And I def hear ya about the hole 2.3 I would love a 2.3 but.... I have a trust thing as well lol
