damn, how much did you get that turbo for? Can I ask why?

You could have gotten a normal journal bearing turbo, same size and specs as that one for probably a lot cheaper than that.

But good to see you're coming along with your project.

You're having a shop build it? or just them doing the machine work?

damn, how did ever miss this this is one sick build goin on here any news on what's next?...

i got the turbo for $700 shipped...i chose the Garrett GT3271 turbo because i came too far just to cheap out at the heart off the build...it like buying a viper with a mustang engine in it...Garrett turbos are reliable, reputable, and perform better than any old cheap ebay turbo...

and the Wiseco pistons and CAT rods i got off of ebay for around $420 shipped and the rods were about $220 shipped...

you can order these piston straight from the wiseco website...i think they were a custom order ($130 a piece)...but there is a list of pistons for every honda motor...

if you have to buy one thing for your bottom end for 600 bux, i say forged pistons and arp headstuds.

great advise but 600 bux wont get you to far dude just save and do it right the first time

well since im getting a beater...a 95 lincoln contienental for $300...just has brake fuild coming out of the rear driver wheel area...a $10-20 fix cuz it seems to be just a ripped hose...

im thinking about doing some headwork...im not going to replace the camshaft but im probably going to replace all the internals, port and polish, and valve job...maybe get a spirral mani...i choose a log manifold for now because its good for low end, ie. shortens the lag...for daily driving...but doesnt allow breathing for top end rpms, ie. for the track...that when the tubular manifold comes into place...

for daily driving turbo setup or just daily driving in general, are u always going to rev up to 7000 rpms after every stop light...no not always that why i chose the log style type of manifold for now...but the log style will still work at top rpms but it just wont breathe as good as a tubular mani...

sounds like a good plan, i think you should get a hold of HondaFan81 for the head-work place, if i'm correct it's CHR motorsports or something

there's a guy there that's done extensive work on F22 heads and is pretty well experienced

what sort of axles are you going to get?

Just get some axles from the autoparts store. They usually have a lifetime warranty on them. If you ever break one, just go exchange it.

IMO, it's not worth it to buy those aftermarket axles. Plus, I've never really heard of anyone on here breaking the axles. I'm sure they'll break easy, but that's if you just dump it lots of times.

I haven't seen you post up anything about engine management. I hope you know how to break in an engine. You don't want your pistons scarring your cylinder walls.

Engine Management

i still thinking about using ECtune with a P06 ecu that i already have...i know one of the developers of the software cuz we used to work at the same company...but i may get it tuned using something else...
