i wouldnt reduce it,
just get a 4 inch inlet pipe for it, itl probably work better too. and looks meaner lol
but i think its 2.5 inch or something for the CT20
Ok guys litle bit info needed. My donor shell for my build is a K plate Rev 2 Tubby, however the chassis loom leading to the engine bay and the dash loom have both been cut to bits. I have replacement looms for both but they are taken from my Rev 1 that i acquired the engine out of. Question is, are...
As above. Id change the head gasket and bolts as my last mr2 suffered from headlift when it reached around 1 bar of boost. Why not heat wrap the tubular manifold aswell? imo this is a shame cos it seems like you have cut a few corners with the build, for example, head gasket and a set of forged pist...
this will be used mostly on the road. So im trying to keep as much of the car as normal as possible if you know what i mean. Iv decided to go with the GT3582 with the .63 turbine housing and .70 compressor housing as im wanting quick spool up and still to make decent power. Im gonna run the radtech ...
well the bottom end is going to Agra in dundee for the works about 2k's worth. going with eagle rods and stuff. just getting everything new at the same time inc oil pump and crank oil seals etc. Not sure wether to go with a GT30 or a GT35 yet but the power these are capable of has got me thinking. A...
its fine mate atleast its on topic, anything that helps you out will help me out too. think ill get away withthe standard manifold for the time being, maybe get it ported though, aswell as the TB etc. The cylinder head is near complete and has had the works with the likes of oversize valves, competi...
Right folks ive changed my mind, after seeing my mates 700+hp build yesterday it gave me some inspiration. Not hoping for anything near that. But im gona go with a GT3076 and maybe run a charge cooler. Is it realistic to say i can acheive 480-500whp with this setup? I know that im gonna need to stre...
thanks mate. yeah im using a multi layered steel one from cometic i was trying to avoid the forged build because the bottom end is in quite good condition but i suppose if i do that then i can go with the 3071/6 and acheive better figures. i suppose the wolfkatz TFFR will do the trick for these inje...
sorry just realised the turbo is only available with a 53mm turbine wheel not a 48. im getting mixed up with the GT2860 as i was also looking at that
i will be going with the 0.64 A/R housing though
Im still undecided on which turbo to go for on my build. I had my heart set on a GT3071/6 but i think its a bit more than i need, i know i'll end up turning the boost up wit it until something goes bang lol. Im looking to acheive around 350 whp and have been looking at the GT2871 with a 48mm housing...
Im looking at getting some new alloys for my mr2 project. either Rota GT3's or Track R's in white with the polished lip in 16x7 but i cant get either of them with the staggered offset. The chances are, ill be running spacers all round anyway but will it be ok to stick the bigger spacers on the rear ...
Got the Rev3 engine loom yesterday. was comparing the differences today and noticed that some of the plugs are different on the Rev3 loom compared to the Rev 1 loom. Fuel pump relay one and 1 or 2 others. can i just swap these plugs over from my rev1 loom? also the rev3 loom doesnt have a single con...
Think the Rev 1/2 is at its limits around 1bar and wouldnt risk anymore, you would need an FCD to get that as fuel cut is around 13psi i think The Rev 3 will be ok for 17 psi (1.1bar or thereabouts) before it hits fuel cut. with an FCD that fits i think the actual fuel system can manage a bit more,...

Personally mate, I would save just a tad longer and lose yourself the hassle of having to swap all the stuff over, what you'd spend on the extra mods is probably what you could get a Rev3 for anyway. Just my thoughts :thumleft: The CT20's standard bearing shaft is prone to breaking when higher boos...
A CT20b can go from 200 upwards for a good one on here, not too sure to be exact. The rev3 ecu conversion will be around 200 to 250 to get ALL the parts below. Rev 3 loom inlet and manifold temp sensors map sensor igniter (coil is same as rev 2) injectors ECU 02 sensor (4 wire) do this aswell as the...
I got my Rev1 with loads of mod's for 100 quid!! And i also think they will go up in value. Look at Mk1 and Mk2 golf GTI's There 20 year old rattly bangy thirsty lumps and they are fetching 2 3 or sometimes 4k for an original one and they are no where near the car an mr2 is, and i was a dub fan till...
A Rev 3 is pretty much a Rev2 with the CT20b and a few body changes and different ECU setup. The CT20b seems to hold boost longer than the CT26 and it runs at a few more PSI aswell on the Rev 3. The Rev 3 doesnt use the airflow meter like the Rev 2 either so its a good benefit. Me personally, would ...
