Glad that you made it back from Iraq and yea I did some research but i need to get some hands on information, thats the best way to know things. But I dont want to fall short in budget, so i am researching on what parts i need to get to 400. I have found quite a bit of information and I will show u a site that has a lot of information.
Engine Performance Tuning Tips.
One of the most helpful informative sites. Well anyways like I said that i have a budget of about 6,000 and I don't plan on spending anything more then that. So your thinking damn that a lot but i still got to do brakes and suspension. So anyways I made some changes in my list of parts. I plan on doing just the essentials in for my swap and seeing what is needed and wat is better. You know how you bought forged pistons you should have bought new OEM Pistons, Rings, and Rods because they have oil squirter holes which makes the life of the pistons and rings longer then forged because the oil cools down and lowers the friction.
Hope my research helps see you would save money and have a longer life. Most times if you build a race engine it needs more maintenances and a lot of down time. I dont wanna have down time so i will be doing a group of mods at once. Engine work first then suspension then interior and then exterior.
With the swap i plan to do this:
S14 SR20DET
Walbro Pump
ACT street and strip (372/lbs)
Fidanza Aluminum Flywheel
Koyo Racing Radiator
Greddy Oil Pan
Greddy Cold Air Intake w/ Z32 MAFS
Greddy Ti-C Exhaust
SR20 Extreme Combo- Manifold, Outlet, Down Pipe, Test Pipe.
After that I will being doing some other stuff like 1.5 LSD, Coilovers, then interior this way it will be a sleeper tell everything is done.
