Re: Galant VR4

Alex, just go with the nitrous. The big turbo 2.4l ford guys run it for a few seconds and then turn it off. Do small jets just to get things hot you'll be fine. It'll be cheaper than all this extra turbo crap and it'll help save money for the stroker. Then you'll also have an extra nitrous kit around. So its Win Win .

Re: Galant VR4

Well sorry to disappoint with the twin-turbo setup, but I am staying single turbo for now.

I drove the car last night, almost cooked the engine, I had the engine revving with no oil leaks so I took it for a spin, bad move.

the aftermarket oil pressure sender unit started leaking and I lost 2 qts of oil (nothing on dip stik, I added 4 and now I am 2 over, so its all good)

The GVR4 never had an oil pressure gauge stock, only the red warning light.
----------------------------

So here is the car now for power:
-2.3 stroker with mahle 9.5:1 pistons - Modern Automotive Performance
-BC280 cams with ti springs, rev limit currently at 8k,
-SC61
-DNP T3 Mani w/tial44
-chipped for 780cc

Other things:
-2wd/4wd switchable t-case
-TRE stege2 /welded diff/taller 5th
-Jet setup my intercooler pips a while back, still using them, might have to get a different BOV as I go 20+ psi
-Audi 5000 CS (5kqt) Radiator (24" x 12" x 2") this is a thick son-of-a-bitch that fits perfectly where the AC condenser used to be, I could go on and on about how superior this radiator is to the shitty DSM radiators that are on the market now,
-external oil cooler - Modern Automotive Performance
-adjustable cam gears! whoohoo! 1000+AWHP!!!!


So much for never hearing from me again. I sooooooooooo want to do the second turbo just to shove it in the nay-sayers faces! (good job guys for making me go 2.3, its just a whole lot easier then my crazy f-cking ideas)
