So, why did you rule out turboing the thing? For the $15K you plan on spending you could have one fast turbo.

Seppuku 02-02-2003 11:18 PM

will i need fuel upgrades with those mods?

oh and i need to add guages to the list too.

Well with so many people doing the turbo swaps lately and the reliability issues of the turbo i decided just to build up a reliable/fast na. And i decided id rather just buy a turboII or fd so i have the best of both worlds. :smirk:

that sounds good :bigthumg: , you dont need anything more than an s afc for fuel if you stay na, unless the judge gets his hands on it https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

Well unless judge comes down here that won't happen so ill just add an s afc to the list.

I heard the Brembo rotors warp easily, keep the pads, just try "endless" rotors!
