F23 Head work help!

It wouldnt take TONS of money to raise the SRT-4 60WHP. A stage two kit would probably exceed that with tuning. IMO, I'd rather buy a already turbo car and then build on that....

Also from what I read on here. You might want to consider converting to OBD1, but that's illegal. It's easier to tune than just a piggy back. Keep in mind, 300whp is a lot of power for our car. You would also need a new fuel pump, racing clutch, the pressure alone might even bend ur clutch pedal bracket. Could even pop ur slave cylinder from the extra pressure. Not trying to be a stinker bro, I am just saying that a lot of small things will come up.

FYI, the F23 tranny would be best for turbo. Longer gear ratios.

yea its like that for everything like when u buy a house u better have money for paint and all kinds of new $h!t! if i invest 8k into my car ill make sure to have an extra 2k sitting around and yea i was thinking of converting to obd1

the parts you are looking at through this thread, i doubt Mr. Arnold will be too pleased...

I would advise against and h23 tans swap. If you manage to make 300+ whp the longer gear ratios will really help out. i would just swap the diff.

DONT PIGGY BACK. they blow. for the same price you can go obd1 . You could could even megasquirt and have money left over for the price of a piggy back. why dont hondas megasquirt?

Alright cool... so i guess ima just stick with the F23 Trans! alot cheaper thanks!

Yeah the f23 trans does wonders when your up in the 300whp range, the longer gears are amazing, the h series tranny would be too short of gears for the setup....

and honestly 300whp isn't that much for our cars, its a blast IMO, im shooting for more soon!

This is quite the list! if your shooting for 300 whp look into putting a quaife LSD in your f23 tranny, it does wonders fixing traction issues, kinda spendy but well worth it me and Ihazsnail has one in ours for sure...

the turbo is a sc34 5 bolt downpipe 63 trim t3/t4 housing its rated at 480 hp but the most you'll see out of it is shy of 400whp, i'm making 335whp on it easy on a conservative tune....

just get a AEM EMS, it makes life easier (or any other similar full standalone) rather then messing with switching to obd1 or any kind of piggy back, just a lot more functional when tuning at such higher whp #'s.... my $.02....

So would AEM EMS work for someone with a n/a build???

 

[valdivia187]

Maybe with a F20 or H22 because they got more potential!

I'd rather tune my F23. But thanks.....H22=WAY OVER RATED.

aem ems should be able to run any engine. i think its waste of money personally. there are other cheaper options that are just as good.
