Hello 2nd gen-ers,



Ok i joined the forum a while ago with FD intentions, but have since then started leaning towards going with an fc.



I'm set on going with an S5 T2 and have found a couple that im following up on but need some help here.



1) I've got a long list of FD specific sites that tell all about everything with the FD and a couple shops that are like FD specific. What i'd like to know is the best sites to go to so i can learn more about the fc's and what places are more geared the sales of FC products.



2) Sorta changing the topic, I plan on going with a single turbo conversion and I'm looking for a lot of power (4-500hp), so first any good pages to read about single turbo fc's and which turbos could proivide what amount of power?



thanks for your help,



kevin.

used to saying that as a whole phrase, my bad.



those sites are great, definitely going through all of it.



Quick question, where is a 35/40 kit, if there is one, available online for the fc?

teknics 06-04-2003 01:41 AM

lol ok after living a dream 35/40 is probably out of pic, prolly just a BNR rebuild or something if they're still around. Turbosmoke ill definitely hit you up for advice once i have the car!



by the way, no pistons rocks, everywhere on this forum is just a spolite as any other part of the forum!

400-500 hp will require a good bank account, good tuning, and

hopefully you have something else to drive because it will probably

see alot of down time.



Shoot for 250-300hp and you will have a good daily driver.

revised plan as im going to take money out of the mod account and put it into the "pay court fines so i dont get thrown in jail" account.



still have about $5-6k left, i'm thinking of just a BNR upgrade, ito ports, e6k, 720cc injectors, greddy fmic, full suspension work (frestylereaction laid out a suspension system plan for me), etc etc. not solid on all details yet mainly cause BNR site is gone, gonna try to talk to him on aim soon, but hes only around once in a while.



it generally takes me a little bit to completely solidify a plan of attack.

Nemesis 06-05-2003 12:07 AM

What is this suspension plan of yours??? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/spam.gif

SomeDay 06-05-2003 12:15 AM
