nice job Pete congras on that ;)

Chris.

Congrats Pete !

Don't spend all that cash on a new motor.....at least not right away :D:D

Rob.

Promotion means raise!! Motor building fund..

Of course I'm going to play devil's advocate and suggest it might be time to look at what a Sti motor is going for these day with REALLY big and REALLY reliable HP;) Or just do Type IV torque and leave the turbo out of it!

Jason

I'd go for type4 and forgo all the extra work. I love my 2.8 and am building another one as we speak for a guy in the UK. How about a turbo 2056 type four mill?

I dunno what your suggesting, but my turbo type 4 gives 270 VERY reliable hp and I use it on the track everywhere and drag race it as well (12,05 in my heavy 1303).
I don't think I spend more on the engine than a complete STi engine would have costed incl. an upgrade for the STi engine as they don't give that much hp in stock form :lmao:

Your type of mill is what I am recomending. the Sti Engine is heavier, more fabrication needed. And th extra weight of the coolant is also an issue. I personally love air cooled power. But never a fan of the overstressed type 1. Thats why I recomended the type 4. I was going to turbo my 2.8 (left compression 8.0:1 just in case) but the power right now is acceptable. But still looking into it. That is if I can convince Marty Stagg From Staggs Racing to build me the manifold I want.

This is an old thread....:lmao:

For those who are wondering. Carb'd 2275 is ready for install, and a 2332EFI turbo is on the stand. :D

Some more carnage pics of that aspirated 2332EFI:

Why am I so upset? My guess is that It got hot and ate a valve? I have a 2.0L type four case for you. When you are ready.

Valve snapped just below valve keeper on #3's exhaust valve.

Was using a 2-piece lashcap/keeper setup that had WAYYYY too much time on them.

If you open your wallet enough, i'm sure he can be convinced. :lmao: I've met Marty, and he's a standup guy.
