yup, we don't like flattops here

hell with a different cam. just mpi and 20psi and he can see 350wrhp period

to be honest donate it. you cant sell that thing for parts even. I am all for parting mind you.

BASICALLY NO ONE KNOWS

With proper tuning and MPI about 400 ish. Crank is forged steel.

ok how much to the wheels?

I am using these and i did ample amount of research and talked with some very educated people before i made my decision. they are running flawlessly for me, and i dont plan on running over 15 psi so i doubt i will ever have any problems. Ill go ahead and quote that, so you can't edit it later. :wink: no-one ever "plans" on going over 15 psi , it turns out that our cars will not make much power unless you do . But , at 15 psi the pistons will be more than ok ..... agreed. and i think that in order to reach 400+ on a starquest you need forged no, just MPI, header and supporting mods... proper tune is key after these items have been had. The motor will take it. cast might be better than hyper

nobody?

v8 torque and 4 cylinder torque is different. would you put a quest tranny behind a winsor?.

lol

dont use the same machinist.

conquest drive train does not suck. build it right and it will hold up. dont and it will be a situaton like yours.God luk with the 2 j I dont want to start a whining match but show me 1000hp on a stock short block on the G54b or maybe 2,000hp on a race engine. Whats the highest hp on a street drive g54b maybe 569whp when a STOCK 2jzgte can put down over 400WHP on stock everything with just a boost controler. no complaining contest bro. 2j>g54b we all know that BUT it does not mean the the g45b sucks. incompetent installer + pissed off machinist sucks. You motor is only as good as your machinists mood. good luck with your swap.

DIDN'T 88whitestsrio run 11.49 in a starion motor?

thats a good turbo

do you have the motor mounts?

lol

O.K nobody probably said there was something wrong with the motor in this thread. Cool, so why are guys destroking, why are guys complaining about undersquare this and that, why are guys thinking about swaping. why are guy still dreaming about DOHC head? What does that tell you? It tell me some...no, no most dont like a challege.

+10000000 if we had the sponsorship and the aftermarket support that every other car had, we'd be way far ahead. i'm perfectly content not driving a cookie-cutter car that you can buy parts from wal-mart for it. +300000 We are actually making very good progress. Alot of us are part time engineeers as opposed to hks or some body like that. In the past year we have made leaps and bounds. Just wait till the end of this year. People are going to respect this car again. YuP and guess who gets all the credit? US not hkless. Who would have thought hacking a magna would help us get 500hp NOT HKLESS. wE ARE A GREAT BUNCH OF GUYS WHO DECIDED TO BRING THIS CAR BACK FROM PERFORMANCE OBLIVION AND WE WILL GO DOWN IN HISTORY FOR IT. sOME OF YOU WERE NOT OLD ENOUGH TO READ THAT tURBO MAG ISSUE ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO THAT HAD OUR CAR AS THE #1 CAR YOU WILL BE WASTING YOUR TIME WITH . tHEY ACTUALLY HAD US MIXED UP WITH THE LIKES OF THAT P.O.S V6 CAMARO/FIERBIRD. SORRY for the caps my keyboard does not face my monitor so i did not know until now.

what size is the feed line though?

mingo what oil feed line are you runnin on the turbo. Is it the braided replacement line the tep sells for the 12a that is a -3 right?

Have you ever seen a broken t5 that did not drive home? They are strong stock but g firce is a good idea

pm him.

pm topdawg about that. 88whitestarion runs haltech as well

They flow very well on the intake side. The problem is the exhaust. This is why i tell guys stop putting baby turbos on mpi equiped cars. An equal length exhaust manifold should then be employed with nothing less than a 60-1 PERIOD. Just watch your compresion ratio as I have come to understand most us of dont even know ours. This will need to be tailored to where your big turbo's sweet spot is or else eject your head/gasket to oblivion.
