we assume a dump piple that attaches to the exit of the turbo?

 

[CMF_sarge3uk]

yea it is mate and does anyone know if this has been done before shaving a 1mm of the top of the piston to lower compression any comments welcome

you should be able to get aftermarket dished pistons to lower the comp, for the std bore size

well ive been searchin for ages and no look and then thought about spacer plate but yesterday my engineer suggesed taking a 1mm of the top would it be safe do you fink

pic of exhaust side (the crack by the way has been proffesionally welded and ported a little bit

get a head spacer plate, goes inbetween your head gasket with another gaskets ontop (so the spacer is sanwhicthed in) you will be able to run upto 150bhp with out internal engine mods.

 

[CMF_sarge3uk]

but where do i get them from ive enquired about them before and no reply im wanting to run 150ish bhp

 

[CMF_sportsclassic]

you could take 1mm off the top of the piston and put a thicker head gasket aswell

 

[CMF_sarge3uk]

i could do but dunno were to get the gasket from

 

[CMF_sportsclassic]

try ACL they make head gaskets, i have seen a few thicker ones on other cars, dont know if they make one for a micra.

You need a GTIR elbow.. or the 200sx elbow will fit.. they point in different directions.. so depending on the position of your turbo..
