Yea I though about it but it would be obnoxiously loud and pretty much take away the streetability thats left in the car as it is.

So are you selling your long-tube headers then?
I'm wanting to have a VH in my S13 more and more now.

sick dude. I wondered when you would step up to more power and how you would go about it. I was hoping to see a procharger on there but you'll have plenty of fun with that turbo setup! best of luck to ya man, its one of my favorite builds for sure. wooohoooo!

Did you ever get it on a dyno in n/a form, or make a good 1320 pass? If you're going to do the logs, consider stepping up the size of the log between each cylinder distally. And don't sweat it, cuz you're right, you're power goals should be easily attainable with that design.

I never made a 1/4 pass but i did dyno it once. This was with intake headers and exhaust on a tired 227,000 mile engine lol.
and this is a comparisson to my previous SR20

Well this is as far as i got this weekend
Then someone decided to purchase the whole motor swap and i got what i wanted for it so i sold it . Dont know what im gonna go with. I think im just gonna throw an SR2 back in and enjoy the car for a while. RB/LS1 was what i wanted but i think for the first time in my life Im just gonna keep it simple.

HEY DO WHATEVER BUSTED MOTOR I HAVE IN MY CAR, I'VE NEVER EXPERIENCED ANYTHING ELSE SO IT MUST BE THE BEST.
yeah, most people I've talked to with V8 swaps regret ditching the SR20. particularly for 240whp. simplicity has its benifets |

Nice to see that someone that owns a 240 is still willing to pay for quality parts and pay the amount of their worth. I was looking forward to see how the turbo setup came out, but if you were able to get rid of it and minimize losses, that's always a good path to take.

Wow, I have NO idea how I never saw this thread. Awesome build. Sad to see it go. I'm trying to figure out what I want to do now. I was planning on a built KA-T but, I'm selling the parts now (pistons, rods, turbo left - GT3071R). I'm debating between an SR and an RB. I think the SR would be cheaper and unfortunately, that's an issue for me...

my neighbor has the hinson swap in a fc rx7 and in a s14. He loves them. We have the luxury of drivin 20 min down to STS in provo utah and gettin the remote mount turbos.. so he has those on both. His cars attract ALOT of local attention.(mostly girls!!) they both put about 400whp down and weigh less than 2700lbs. To say the leist they are fast. i am sad to see this go. It was pretty unique. sounded good. v8 roar, but different than the domestic's. How much did the whole thing end up costin ya anyway? |
