can someone help me put those sh!7 talking V8's to rest...

[X-MAN510]

Hey, I am a new member to Nico and I was wondering if someone could help me with my build. I have a 92 180sr Super Hicas (I plan on eliminating the Hicas soon because it’s really like a SUPER PIECE OF CRAP). The mods that are on the car right now are:

HKS hipower cat back, with a 3” down pipeApexi intakeGreddy Front MountGreddy RS BOVHallman EVO boost controllerAFC NeoB&M Short Shifter

My plan for right now is to upgrade to a GT3076R and I am looking at the stage 3 kit from JGY for $1,725.00

GT3076R turbo 4 72# injectorsinjector connectors4 inline injector resistorsJGY Fuel rail

Does anyone have any experience with JGY or there kits? And with the kit I plan on also purchasing a Walbro fuel pump, and MAF but I’m not to sure what MAF to get any suggestions?

Thanks any positive feedback would be greatly appreciated, and if anyone has any suggestions on what I should do next I am all ears I plan on getting cams, Intake manifold pretty soon too and latter piston and all that good stuff.

go to full-race website and check out their twin scroll setup. You can get a twin sroll 3076r and still spool like a 2871r

if you are getting a whole gt30 turbo kit for that price i wouldnt be expecting the highest quality. I paid more then that for my manifold and turbo alone.

wtf is a 180sr

Seriously???

[X-MAN510]

Seriously???

hahaha my bad dude i thought you meant that as in go to a website that was all about racing, because i didnt even know that site even existed... but good looking out, that turbo is a nice turbo and ive read good things about it, because right now im not to sure i can trust jgys kit its a little iffy being that its that cheap... so i think i just may buy the twin scroll turbo and injectors and stuff individually... any suggestions on what set up i should be looking at as far as what type of injectors and rails ?

[srdub-t]

you live right next to atp turbo you know that right. You know the race spot off of industrial prkway passed the auction, well take a right of the exit instead of a left and its right there on your left at the light. U can buy your stuff from them and pay no shipping and have it the same day!

hey cool you live in the area too, ya im familiar with that spot. see i came across that kit from jgy and i saw the price and i just wanted to see what people thought because i was thinking of buying it, and i still kind of am thinking about... but now im looking at the twin scroll too so i just wanted to see what people think would be a good turbo setup...

[srdub-t]

yea im running a gt3071r on peakboost manifold and it ripppsss and will definatly take those v8s that run around hayward and oakland but i kinda wish i went with the twin scroll setup for just a couple more bucks. But still not complaining with my setup exept for that peakboost took almost a months to ship me the manifold and another 2 months to ship the dp.

tight bro... ya man i think im going to go with a twin scroll, what did you upgrade when you got your turbo and how much boost are you running?

[DrifterProdigy85]

Your doing too much at one time. Upgrading all that stuff isnt cheap by no means. Your also forgeting Cams and Intake Manifold to be on your list. Along with a ECU Tune or Standalone. I dont think you know what your getting yourself into.

[srdub-t]

yea i got the bc cams, z32 maf, turbo lines for top mount, bigger injectors, enthalpy ecu, costom piping for top mount ect.... it all ads up to alot more that i thought.

Bingo!

[drftsx]

How fast are the mustangs and camaros in the area ur at?? wouldnt it take a little amount of mods to beat stock ones??

[srdub-t]

no there fast out here alot of them are in the mid 11's, but the v8s arent the cars to be worried about, its the "out of order" evo that we should be worried about beating, he only races for 500 bucks and hasnt lost yet. Not sure what exactly he has but sources tell me that hes running a gt35 at 30 lbs of boost fully tuned at full fuction. he ran an 11.1 missing 4th gear. Now he has a fully costum transmission with costum gears for quarter mile racing. His fourth gear is crazy.

[drftsx]

Crazy tryin to get a 10s street car..cant be the fastest. Well you guys got $$$$ so gl!

Hey I just want to say thanks I think you’re the only one that’s actually said something worth paying attention too… Ya I know man I have a long road ahead of me, but I do have some money sit aside for my car and my car club has a couple sponsors so that’s also helping me too… I guess you can tell I’m kind of in a rush to get my car going, so you think I should do intake manifold and cams before I even think about a turbo upgrade?

I know that EVO’s fast! OOO is racing in the valley next weekend I’m going up there with some friends from my car club; I guess he’s racing a cobra or something like that… so I think I’m just going to make the V8s a priority for right now hahaha! But that’s cool man so you went with a top mount; the top mounts look beastly when you pop open the hood. I’m going to stay bottom mount and maybe latter when I decide to go with a bigger turbo I’ll do a top mount. We should meat up sometime and ride out to the runs one night, I want to check out your car…

[koukicody]

just steal the V8 they're beating you with and put it in your 240

[adrianfromthecastle]

SWAP IN DA LS7... DAT'LL TEACH DEM V8 GAIZ

[X-MAN510]

hahaha... thats how you guys in those miatas get down, I dont think im going to ever do a V8 swap in my sr powered 180 or in any 240 for that matter thats like blasphemy....

i think intake maifold, cams and some injectors with a gt35 twin scroll turbo with a tune will be plenty...

i hope to run atleast 20 psi what size cam and injectors should i be looking at?

and what do you guys think about the greddy intake manifold? because theres a couple out there and i just want to see which ones people like the most...

[srdub-t]

and im perfectly fine with that but a tire blow out on the mountain can be alot more durastic than a tire blow out in a straight line. Catch my drift? I agree that things can go wrong but somthing can go wrong from just getting outa bed in the morning. Im just saying its not fair to judge somebody for doing what they like just because you dont agree with it. I would love to go to the track and have a blast there but its not to cheap, and not everybody has that kinda money to spend.

[Kckouki]

Most of those V8's will still woop up on you.

You kinda have to do all at the same time to get the ECU Tune right. Its why its so expensive. Also what turbo you gonna try to go with? Im going with T67 Twin Scroll soon. Shooting for 600+whp. Possibly run 10's or even 9's if i learn to launch better. Currently im using GT2871R .86 and that makes enough power to trap in the 120-125mph area. Good for low 11's or even high 10's. Havnt found too much of cars in my area to touch it except for a couple drag V8's that spray 150-300 shots of nitrous.

damn bro that’s a big snail... but for right now I’m looking at a gt3076r twinscroll or a gt3582r twinscroll, I think I’m going to just say f it and go with the gt3582 twinscroll because I don’t want to be saying damn I should have gotten the gt35 latter on down the road and its really only a couple hundred bucks more too… And with my turbo I think I’m going to go with denso 660cc injectors, and today I ordered the greddy intake manifold so that should be coming in sometime soon… And as far as cams go I’m going to hold off on them for a while because then I’m going to have to get a new head gasket, deal with the chains and all the other crap that has to do with changing out cams and my motor really only has about 48,000 miles on it, but if I feel I need more top end then I’ll get the cams…

[DrifterProdigy85]

Going GT30R or GT35R you will need at least 740cc injectors. They will be maxed out with about 20psi though from either turbo. 850 is needed for the 30R and 1000cc are needed for the 35R. Also youll also be looking into a Dual Fuel Pump setup or Aeromotive External pump to give enough fuel to those injectors. Larger fuel line will be smart too. Like i said before, things get pricey and pretty extensive when getting into power. You have yet talked about cams and a head build.

[S3t0_S13]

i thought you guys just do the swap on civics....

upgraded??
