alright got all 1500 saved up to buy a 2.3 turbo engine from the parts store, the engine comes with a 3 year warranty (just going to call and check what other components come with it)
i'm still trying to ask around to anyone that knows about 2.3 engine because I really wanted to just build a 160-170 hp 2.3 engine without installing the turbo. so far no luck though. i'm going to take my car to the dyno and get it tested before I do any major work on it to see where it stands, so far it has a timing gear and headers i'm not sure what else was installed on the car when i purchased it. i had a hard time getting it inspected because it has ZERO emissions equipment on it.
the turbo install looks really complicated too, some say my stock 2.3 5 speed will do fine, but others dont which is really confusing. anyways if anyone knows how to build a decent n/a motor let me know! my goals for the 2.3 would be 0-60 in around 7 secs.
explain cams please! i have somewhat of an understanding of them, but according to some they could increase hp by about 20 if i buy the right one. true false?
