please add me to the list for efi kit p.kirst@sbcglobal. Net
82X96 10/1 comp
Thank you
Phil |
Added thanks
Thats a nice combo, just the programable FI kit will transform the engine, with 10/1 compression you will be limited to 6psi of boost adding 40hp max on 93, if you used sunoco GT(100)you could run 12psi and get 80hp over your base line tune. |
What would you figure the numbers for 9.3:1 80x96 2316cc ported heads would be (boost and HP gained) on 91 octane Chevron fuel. |

Hoping for some updates.
Is your kit going to utilize the stock exhaust header pipes or come with custom parts?

Nice to hear a stock 1.9 + the efi/turbo CAN do 350+ on a dyno... I actually only WANT about 140 to 160 HP on my stock 2.1. I am not going to do much to my 93.5 tintop for the near future. Just try to put it in stasis. (drop gas, coolant, oil, put note on steering wheel says DONT TRY TO START!) And do some basic 'rust sleeps for now' attempts...

Impressive numbers. Is the cooling system being updated to handle the additional BTU's being generated? That's a pretty big jump in power over stock.

Marco stated his kit will include a real oil cooler. It will eliminate the factory oil cooler. Should work great. He is also water cooling the turbo using the plumbing that previously hooked to the liquid to liquid factory oil cooler.
I'm still curious about the exhaust configuration. Do we need the stock primary and secondary exhaust pipes or does the kit include a complete exhaust system?
