Hey guys, it's been a very long time since I've posted here, but I need your help. I've had my Tork Tech intercooled kit installed for a little over a year and a half now, and today on my morning commute, the dreaded noise of rod knock reared its ugly head.
So, in short, I'd like to hear recommendations. Car & engine have 92k miles. I'd like to upgrade, and I'd like to reuse the Tork Tech kit with whatever I end up doing. I don't have a hard & fast budget, but I'd say under 10k would be ideal. I am mechanically inclined (I installed everything in my signature either by myself or with a friend) but have never done an engine rebuild / swap. I wouldn't be averse to the idea of having a shop do some of the work if that would make more sense.
Other than that, the sky is the limit. The only other consideration is that I'd like the setup to be reliable and easy to drive, as it will continue to be my daily driver. So no wild cams or anything
My fuel system is currently pretty much maxed out (SVT Focus pump in stock tank), so recommendations on that would be helpful as well.
If you help me, I promise I'll stick around
Thanks!
