ya...i think its cause you guys dont want to do the full swap....correct me if im wrong, but all the hybrid motor builds dont do well at all....

edit...sorry...for the amount of work involved...they dont push out that much power...

 

DOM "Polka Pickle" is looking pretty good too!

 

ATP3076R for the stock location win.

 

The Full swap?

I do want to do the full swap...Money is everything? I don't have money like that. I am going to get built Heads. After this turbo upgrade thats my next project.

I am going to stop myself...

We all can't have STI's

The thing that slows us down is the Heads...2.0L are restrictive. Thats why we have to build Heads. We can only do one thing at a time.

 

someone you know claims you can get sti heads for $600...is that alot of money? im sure you spent way more than that on your build go ask him where to snag that deal at....cause last year i spent over $500 on a brand new bare stock head...ya, head not heads:P

 

Check out the CNC work EQ does to the heads for hybrid builds. The end result is built heads which have been machined to tune much more like an STi. This is mostly to do with the timing but also effects the overall drivability. Ed can articulate it much better than I can but its definitely a solid way to go when doing a hybrid build. This also negates the need for thicker head gasket. Food for thought. I think its only a couple hundred bucks difference to make your car that much more consistent/powerful.

 

+10 for the 3076r....thats what I am going with....(eventually)

 

Would love to but I would have to change my setup...I already have a 38mm EWG.

 

didn't I say this would happen over on Nasioc Lo?

haha loser

 

isnt your 38mm EWG in the uppipe? if so no need to change setups....stock location 3076r will work with your setup

 

I have talked to the Guys at EQ. Thats the reason why the Heads are my last build. Because it cost alot.
$1,100 for the Head work alone. I still have to upgrade the Springs, Retainers, Valves, and Cams.

I was thinking about just buying some JDM heads but they are $2500 +400 for the CNC Work.

 

What would happen?

 

Disregard my last!

 

that you would get use to the power and you would want more by next week.....in this case it has been a little over a week..

 

yeah.. its expensive to do head work anywhere you go. Most of that is due to machine shop labor. The extra couple hundy i mentioned occurs while you are already doing head work. Can't wait to see how you car turns out. The 3076 still may work for you. Not sure but if i remember correctly, the ewg version has a pretty cool configuration which adds flexibility in ewg choices and application. Yet another question for Ed.
