Re: Rev 4 caldina swap q?

I m had a rev 3 engine fully forge with ct20 turbo I brought it like that and then took that out and sold it and put in a rev 4 complete engine and went mental on it. The rev 4 block cylinder walls I believe are a couple of mm thicker then the rev 3 that's why the block is more stronger... I never m...

But forged is the way really. Re...

Re: Rev 4 caldina swap q?

Stock internals have chicken leg rods but the block is the strongest out of all the 3sgte and you will get the most bhp out of it compare to all the old revisions. I'm running 1.39 bars and I'm getting 445.3bhp with a gt3037 same turbo as a gt3076. But ideal engine would be a L7 from a corvette lol ...

Disc rotor size is 330x32 on bells

The pads are quite harsh but work really well.... so need decent disc or they won't last long.
