Let's assume I have about $2500-3000 to spend on my car over the winter. I already have the paint, wheels, etc... What I need is some power. I have a turbo that will support ~350 rwhp, so that's not an issue. Here's what I want to know:

What front mount and radiator would you recommend and where would you order it from?

What fuel pump? Will the run of the mill Walbro handle my fuel needs at ~12psi? :twisted:

What size injectors if I'm hoping for 320-350 at the flywheel?

I'm thinking of going with the ACT street/strip clutch. Opinions?

Apex-i SAFC or somthing else for fuel control?

Any other mods I can't live without? I'm guessing a wide band is a must, right Vosko? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png





If I need more money I'll have to sell the Subaru or something. j/k

umm walbro is good. hmmm you can try and get FD secondaries 850cc and use a S-afc then tune them. greddy 2 row fmic and fluidyne radiator who ever has it IN STOCK https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png



act s/s is damn good.

The Greddy is about $800 cheaper than the HK$...always a plus in my book. If I order it in February, I'll have it by May. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png

The clutch I have probably won't handle an extra 50-75 hp, which is what I'm hoping to get. I don't have a lw flywheel, but I think I'd be getting an 11lb...maybe.



Where should I look for a wide-band A/F? RP has the 60mm Greddy, but it won't fit in a gauge pod. Maybe I'll have to do something custom for it.

j9fd3s 11-08-2002 12:48 PM

if you hog out a regular guage pod a 60mm will fit, but what fun is that?

a light flywheel will make the car a lot better, it gets rid of that boat anchor feeling.

Yeah Ed, my TII is SICK with the RB 11lb flywheel, the ACT Xtreme plate and SS disc.



I would never go any heavier :bigthumg:



I was going to recommend Voskos idea for fuel, but remember, im pretty sure FD injectors are of different impedance than ours if you wanted the stock ecu to control them.

vosko 11-08-2002 03:42 PM

screw it buy a haltech and a FJO wideband i have an email address to get the FJO from its expensive but cheaper than replacing engines https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

UniqueTII 11-09-2002 04:33 PM

I can't afford a Haltech. I sure would love to have one, but I need to be realistic...unless someone wants to buy a Subaru and a mountain bike for $1200. Where would I find an F JO wideband, and can I use it without a Haltech?



FD injectors are side feed, so they won't work with a TII fuel rail, right?



Geoff...that's pretty much the exact clutch setup I want...I think you just sold me.

Haltech baby. Wait a few more weeks, the E6K is goign to be a bargain since the E11 should be hitting the market soon and all the boys will want to upgrade their e6k.
