what kind of power u makin?

[TurboLX]

Hopefully around 500, i havent put it on the Dyno yet and theres still a couple thing im doin with the motor still

[MSO]

wut kinda mods u got on it¿

[TurboLX]

My mods are a built 2.3 bored 20" with a small stroke bringing it to a 2.5 with a Stinger header and a Holset HX35 with a 3" down pipe, custom built log style one piece intake, a ported and polished head with a ranger roller cam, 62lb injectors with a turbo "JOE" fuel rail, a custom intercooler (NOT INSTALLED YET) Megasquirt stand alone and there maybe a couple of more but i dont know what they are

[MSO]

u kno anything about the t3/t4 turbo? i was lookin into those since it jus bolts right up to the engine and doesnt cost much to do it

and 62 lb injectors?!?!? holy shimoly! i thought 40 was overkill but damn

and wut kind of gains did u get from the ranger cam and how much u get it for?

and i read somewhere that turbo engines dont really like bein stroked cuz of the compression ratio or w/e and havin more room for the air inside to expand and what not. u make more power wit the stroker than normal displacement. cuz i kno u can get a long rod kit and keep the same displacement but wit lighter pistons and longer rods

[TurboLX]

well yes and no, if your going with a huge stroke, then its a problem, but a smaller stroke is nothing, actually Rangers are 2.5's, as for the ranger cam, its a roller cam so it frees up power due to the fact that it takes a load off the engine, it makes it easier to turn, and it gives you about a 15hp gain and yes i do know alot about the Garrett T series

[MSO]

when i said u kno anything about... i wasnt askin if u knew. i was askin u to tell me wut u knew lol

so u can take the 2.5 ranger cam and put it on a turbo 2.3 w/ no other mods?

[TurboLX]

same motor just with a stroke, also since it would be too much to write about the T3/T4, just look at this link below

[MSO]

so if u jus bolted the t3/t4 on u wud hav to get new fuel pumps?

[TurboLX]

well first off, is the engine a turbo block?

[MSO]

yea its a turbo 2.3L from a t-bird

[TurboLX]

ohh ok sweet, i would bolt the T3/T4 up to it and use 42lb injectors with a 255lph fuel pump and a FPR, are you using the EEC from the Tbird?

[MSO]

i didnt swap it yet. its jus sittin there

and how much wud all htis cost? i wanna do it all at once

cuz im gonna get new gears for the tranny too

[TurboLX]

it shouldnt cost alot, if you have a complete engine and EBAY

[MSO]

ebay is ur friend in the world of poverty lol

i wonder wut kind of power gains i wud get from a t3/t4 wit the 42lb injectors and the fuel pump and fpr

[MSO]

also, wud u need some kind of aftermarket computer or anything to run properly?

[TurboLX]

you can use the stock EEC but its good for only 300hp, that combo should get you about 350-400 and Megasquirt you would need to run

[MSO]

ohh u do it urself.. i assume u did this? is it ez, hard, pro needed?

[TurboLX]

you can do it your self, but you need to know what to do and a matter of getting it right, but what some guys do is they will take there stock EEC and get a performance chip from predator and throw that in

[MSO]

does that gotta be custom ordered or something?
