Well, I recently picked up a motor for my galant that has 5,000 miles on it. Still a six bolt 4G63T, but it's got 9:1 Wiseco pistons, Eagle H-beam rods, full ARP hardware (head studs, mains, rod bolts) etc etc.

Head off the motor:

Engine assembled on a stand:

Fun stuff!
 
well, i'm going to be running 20lbs on 92 octane with the evo3. Boost @ 2300 rpm is nice.

By the end of summer, i'll be moved over to an FP3052/tial44(recirculated), and probably going to a dsmlink, or AEM EMS setup. It depends on how funding works out as which direction engine management goes. AEM is a lot nicer, but it's an extra $1000.

I plan on running 22-24lbs on the 3052, if I can get away with it.

Some dude that lives in my neighborhood has a white 92 with a T3/60-1. Was at a local gas station so I gave him props. Sucker got up and MOVED OUT

How can you run that much boost with that kinda compression and 92 octane? Most DSM folks I used to know could only get away with about 18 psi with the stock 1st gen compression (7.6 to 1 was it??) on our measly 91 octane, and had to be super rich at that.
 
When I turn the boost way up on any of my turbo vehicles I either add more fuel or pull some timing, or a little of each.. BTW nice clean looking plant..

On the 7.8:1 (1g comp) with the evo3 I could run 19lbs on the supra sidemount, but i was MAXING out the RC550's i had in the car.

The 3052 is actually a more efficient turbo, so at a similar boost level, it should be less of a fireball-thrower.

Oh, and I'm going to be running a 24x12x3.5 short route FMIC and 850cc fuel injectors.

The fuel system is pretty much done on this car, aside from doing the ultra-pump mod (bosch 044). That definitely won't be done until next year though. The ol' walbro can handle things just fine for now.

I'll probably run 2-3* of mech. timing advance, to deal with knocking on the 9:1 though.
 
The only thing prettier I have seen than this is a pile of uninstalled turbo motors at the Porsche factory, but this is still REALLY NICE!
 
update!

Could a moderator please put a 56k warning on this?
