lastresort576 Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Tuner toy rods, JE 9.0-1 compression pistons, JE pro seal rings with a turbo ring gap, and balance the rotating assembly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpearce1974 Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Tuner toy rods, JE 9.0-1 compression pistons, JE pro seal rings with a turbo ring gap, and balance the rotating assembly. And a professionally chipped ECU! Sorry Dwight!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lastresort576 Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 And a professionally chipped ECU! Sorry Dwight!! lol alright mike ill give you that one! My thoughts are the first ecu was fine (and it was), but then because the stock map sensor was seeing 15psi it caused the dizzy and ecu to crap the bed..and the second ecu was a manual p06 converted..i gues gone wrong. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelSolSweetie Posted November 28, 2008 Author Share Posted November 28, 2008 alright.. first off.. no thread jacking .. we're staying focused here should i go lower compression then that.. like 8.5:1? and im not playing around here.. i want at least about 300 wheel would be nice.. i want it to go fast and ive heard vtec and boost only go good together if built properly so when giving ideas remember if i buy another sol im gettin an si.. hopefully a 93 like mine should i get a kit or piece one?? how big of a turbo.. t3/t4 or bigger? my brother in law has a t-88on his rb25.. and well i dont even think it would fit under my hood so nothing crazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerrodh Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Why dont you just boost the Sol you have now? And 300whp with a built engine shouldn't be to hard. Projectcar recently did a turbo D-series for 300whp+ on a budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..SSR.. Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 9-10.5:1 depending on who will be tuning it. GT28RS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mafdark Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 dear god please buy my turbo kit. D series GT28RS worth over 3k selling on ebay for 2. http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19...%3D220316532214 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelSolSweetie Posted November 28, 2008 Author Share Posted November 28, 2008 why go higher compression for boost? and i dont want to put anymore money in mine cause its been wrecked so much.. theres no way id ever get even 1/4 of the money thats in it back and thats going to be my dd.. the turbo sol is going to be weekend/track/fun car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cranny Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 the higher compression will give you a broader powerband , but anything over 10:1 is too much for any amount of boost , period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lastresort576 Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 the higher CR will make it not so much a dog out of boost, and will deter turbo lag, I'm running 9.0-1 myself and have no problems. Isnt 300whp near the top of a gt28rs's efficency range? im thinking a gt30 would be better off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mafdark Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 the higher compression the more difficult it is to safely tune. For a daily driver that would be a terrible idea to increase the compression and to boost it. one or the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..SSR.. Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 More compression is not bad with boost. Make sure you tuner can safely tune it. Know what fuel you're going to run. I've done as high as 11.5:1 for street cars on Chevron 93. You'd be suprised at the compression the fast SFWD and Hot Rod guys are running.

Mafdark Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 those engines are torn down every ten miles. I dont think that is the standard for a daily driver. ... and even if you have done 11.5:1 on 93, I would still highly discourage other people from doing it. I know people who have ran 25PSI on a stock block, does that mean she should do that on her daily driver too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..SSR.. Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 No they're not. Most competitive SFWD engines last 2 seasons. Only rebuilt to freshen things up. One I built for a local has been running for a year now, daily driven on 93 octane, 12:1. Its all in the chamber and piston top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelSolSweetie Posted November 29, 2008 Author Share Posted November 29, 2008 and thats going to be my dd.. the turbo sol is going to be weekend/track/fun car I know people who have ran 25PSI on a stock block, does that mean she should do that on her daily driver too? okay every reply you made has been about this bein my DD.. if you had read MY post correctly it says the turbo sol is going to be my fun weekend and track car.. as in i'll have TWO sols so we're not talking for daily driving.. i want hp and i want it to last but anyway.. i believe stock compression is 9.6:1.. so going to 9.1 wouldnt be much of a change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lastresort576 Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 stock z6 CR is 9.2-1 so its even less of a change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_big_dl86 Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 first of cranny is right as always.nething more the 10.0:1 is way to high even for low boost.thing is the higher your comp ratio the harder your car will be to tune.a very very good tuner will be needed with comp ratio that high.as for ur question ne reputable company will be fine for pistons and rods its all about preference.i would go with like je or arias pistons and probly eagle rods but thats just me.and project car made nowhwere near 300whp with there diy turbo d.they made like 160whp on 6lbs with all stock internals.making 300whp on a d will not be easy.in fact ive been wanting to takle the task myself cause ive never built a d.but ya u will need a really strong motor to handle the amount of boost it would take to get 300whp out of a d.i would should more for like 225 or so for a street setup.

..SSR.. Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 There is no right or wrong on opinion of CR for boost. It all comes down to the person building the engine and the person tuning it. 300whp on a D is easy. Not like its hard to make mild power when you have a turbo.

cranny Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 yes there is , i dont know what cars you build. but all the cars i know of and read about , some 1000 whp K series , noone runs higher than 10:1. most run 9:1 , thats the popular number. so your saying you built a 12:1 CR boosted engine , i call BS. makes no fukin sense whatsoever unless you plan on running 6psi or some piddly number. i dont care what kind of internals you run , you run 12:1 with any amount of boost , its going kaboom before long. that or put headgaskets on steady from lifting the head. you want 300 whp d series , 9:1 pistons , forged rods , full race or reputable top mount or ramhorn manifold , 44mm wastegate , t3/t4 garrett , at least 57 trim. the turbo i run would be perfect , .60 cold , .63 hot. 3" downpipe and exhaust to match. 18 psi will get you 300 wheel around. or you could go all out and run a twin scroll setup , but little overkill for a 300 whp D series , lol.

Gt30 gets 300+ easily, might be a little over kill (better suited for 400-500hp) or you could buy my GT28RS setup which maxes out at around 340hp... kick out 300hp with killer spool.

..SSR.. Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Oversized head studs, GSR head so it has plenty of quench to keep the A/F in the center of the cylinder, o-ringed head. Doesn't go through headgaskets and hasn't blown. Top tier SFWD power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
