what to do with my engine?

You can probably achieve 450whp without a built motor, just a thought. Especially on a DynoJet, no questions.


I know but If I build it now then my goals can go above and beyond what the current goals are on stock tranny so like I said 450awhp and then when I get the built tranny 550awhp! and from there idk but I'm gonna build it up the best I can little by little...

As for the head Its pretty much a stage 2 map head for about $1,300 or so... That I'm getting for a decent deal and putting my bc272s in..

Well this setup will last me for a couple years prob. but I dont plan on selling my car so....

Maybe little things here and there like fp manifold or a sheet metal intake manifold... different 02 housing ect...

For a 2g eclipse I think that its pretty good... but thats just me personally.

Ok well I'm 99% positive that I am doing a fully built long block and turning the boost up to 25psi!! After the breakin period of course...

I want 450awhp!! Just keeping those who are interested up to date with the motor build.

450whp on e85? Plan on spending $$$ if you want to get over that. Running dual pumps in a 2g seems to be pretty tough. And you could achieve that with a stock 6 bolt at DB, probably 520whp at MAP.

[GsXtUrBo98]

lol, Well its a good goal to shoot for this year since its just starting so we will see what happens...

For now I just need to get my car running and go from there ya know?

I would like to run e85 within the next couple months.. I wanna see what the out come is gonna be on pump first!

It's time to learn to use that round thing that you put your hands on. There's more to driving a car than going in a straight line.

I do agree.

HAHA, I know. Right now im all about the straight line, thats what my setup is good for. Im in the process of getting my coilovers put in when they arrive tomorrow.

Chris, if you want to buy my 1000cc injectors, I will sell them to you. I need bigger ones.

That's actually a decent mod list you have going.

Although I still do not think you need to spend money on a MAP Stg 2 head. This is just my opinion. If I was in your shoes, all I would do is get a very mild port done (basically clean up any casting imperfections), and get some basic spring upgrades like Crowers. Anything more then that, I personally think it's money spent better elsewhere. For you, I see you don't have a wideband on your list. I also see you're on an ACT 2100, which I forsee you running into issues with at that power level. You're considering E85 but still on 680 injectors. That, and possible fuel pump upgrade, are both things you need to take into consideration if going to E85. All of those things I would definately consider money better spent IMO.

But looks like you're going to have a fairly solid setup, good luck with it!
