TT3888how fast is it on twisty roads? How long will that engine last?
anyways that thing is too fast
Well, its an Evo, so its plenty quick around the twistys. Just because it has a ton of power doesn't mean it handles bad. Sure, with that big GT35, it will have a tad more lag. But really, its still a damn Evo. They handle just fine.TT3888how fast is it on twisty roads? How long will that engine last?
👍 👍infernoLots of turbo lag but really quick none the less. As for the sound, the Evo sounds good but the camaro sounds better.

And, as far as the engine goes, don't worry about that. The 2.3 kit that AMS uses, thats in that car, is a stout bit of kit. New crank, Eagle rods, Ross slugs, ARP studs....the works. It will last. My car is making basically the same power, with some of the same pieces (crank, Eagle rods, ARP bits), and its been in this state of tune for close to 8k miles, without as much as a hiccup. Build and tune it right once, and never need to later.
And, as for the lag on that turbo. The GT35 is one of the "holy grail" turbos for the 4G63 engine. That turbo and the HKS 3037S are amazing with the power they deliver at relatively low rpms. Obviously, with a big turbo, no matter what the bearings or trim, you will have some lag. But, those turbos are the perfect balance of power and spool. Work of art if you ask me. I would love to have one, if they werent' so much $$$$.

PSAll I see is black screen + engine/exhaust noises/blowoff valves/clutch noises....
is it supposed to be like that?
Well, it did start as a 2.0, so it did get 15% bigger. Thats more of an increase than going from 350 to 383BlazinXtremeWhat the hell a 2.3L Stroker kit? Wow that alone made me laugh, I've never heard of a 140 Stroked motor before, maybe a 383.
The 35psi that they talk about is the ammount of boost pressure the turbo is making. When the air comes in the intake, and then into the turbo, it gets compressed. That compressed air then makes its way to the engine where its mixed with more fuel. That makes the big power. The more air you can get to the engine, the more fuel you can mix with it to make power. By compressing it with a turbo, you get a more dense air charge.XVII35psi, is that the equivalent to where you move the little bar on how much nitrous you want in GT4 or am i just being dumb?
Well, it did start as a 2.0, so it did get 15% bigger. Thats more of an increase than going from 350 to 383 Thats about as big as you can take the 4G63. Some people have done 2.4s, but not many. It might sound silly, but it serves the same purpose it does in those big V8s. More engine means more power to spin big turbos. And that car does have a big turbo.
People weld steel blocks to the top of their Honda motors to stroke them. Or they cram the bigger cranks (like from the CRV) into the smaller blocks. All the standard hot-rod tricks apply.BlazinXtremeOh I can see why he did, bigger displacement is always better. I just found it amusing. Not to mention I've never ever heard of a stroked 4 cyclinder before.
Well, its not quite that easy. The 4G64 conversion is usually the entire bottom end of the 64 engine, combined with the head and upper end pieces from the 63 engine. The only problem is that to really make it work, you have to build the engine to handle the boost. So, you're better off just building up a standard 4G63 engine instead of trying to frankenstein a 63/64 combo.Driftster.....but people have been putting 4g64 cranks into 4g63's for the displacement....
Well, no one said you have to spend $3k on a stroker. The stock crank is very strong, and can handle just about any big boost street application. And, new pistons and rods are all you need at that point. You can spend $1500 on nice pieces there, and have PLENTY of engine. All I'm saying is, there is enough little things that aren't direct drag-and-drop with the 4G64 that make building the stock 4G63 a much easier proposition. In the end, you get a very similar result.Driftster.....And are you sure you'd be better off doing that?.....it would probably be ALOT cheaper and alot more potant than the 3,000 dollar stroker kit.
