That's not really an issue for a race only car.

 

well it was my racecar project but the title should be changed really... the ideas i have had have changed alot and now that i want to go turbo or FI at least i figure i should be able to get away with it being streetable (and possibly even able to pass emissions if i do things right)

 

I assumed you were sticking to the N/A road, so I suggested something to overcome the short stroke. It is really up to you whether you want to go FI or N/A. The gains will be greater at a given cost for a turbo vs natural aspiration.

 

yea, but my buddy has been upgrading his STI lately, so i can get ahold of his stocker turbo and fuel pump with more things to come ( i think an ls will spool that turbo, if not, i'll jsut buy a t3/t4)

ps.. i hope this isnt my last post here.. lol, i'm goin to bed

 

the STi turbo is way to small

 

its effcient for 18 pounds or so, i'm, not looking for like 8000 whp or anything here guys

 

you will not make any more than 250whp on that turbo really....you need at least a T28 or something close to it

 

not if i put in higher comp pistons and tune right.. i think it should be enough

 

The IHI VF39 should be just fine for his purposes.

Assuming you can have fabricated a manifold or adapter plate to work.

 

or i could just find myself a t3/t4 and be done with it

how hard is it to FI a c1 engine if i plug in a EMS? i dont want a crappy EMS either, prolly gunna go with AEM... also, if i got an electronic boost controler, could i theoertically change profiles on the fly wiith the AEM EMS no problem? (it should control all the variables, like timing, boost, vtec engagement, fuel, etc.. correct?).. ok so heres where i am so far:

B18c1 in a hatch or CRX
t3/t4 turbo
built engine with engine block guard (i think this is the thing that connects to all of the mains stabilizing the block.. right?):
midrange compression pistons (with oem headgasket) so i can always change out the gasket to gain/loose a little compression. (prolly 9.5's-10's)
Pn'P on the head
mid-range cams (streetable, yet also raceable)
LS tranny
AEM EMS w/ EBC
