Get rid of the SRP slugs.

2 d series motors ... 6 out of 8 pistons fried.

you know what pictures im talking about


---- the zex dry kit... if you run any nitrous, then get a direct port kit

I'm not exaclty what your hp goal is (i dont feel like reading) but you should look into gettin a t3 / t4 b .48/.60 v-trim they are like $460 new and are good for 425hp.

I really dont have a hp goal, dont care what itll run in the 1/4 because Ill never bring it there

Just want a car that I can have fun in myself, on the highway

Like even now with the sohc zc on the bottle I just have a blast going from 80km-240km just ------- full throttle rips where you honestly just forget about everything and just love the car

But I wouldnt mind being able to roast a few stang and ricers from stoplights, dont want to always have to go from a roll or have to get up to 100 before I start making some power and am always falling out of boost you know what I mean

And yes the nitrous will be a small shot and it will be a dry kit, thats what I have (w/ heater/purge/pressure gauge) so it wont cost me a thing

I love this car

There is nothing wrong with SRP pistons, Those guys obviosly dont know how to tune their ----. Look at beaus b16a with SRP's, several passes at 25psi. SRP/JE same thing, saying they are bad or telling people to get rid of them is stupid.

Im curious to know more about Precision turbo's

If they're not ball bearing, whats the advantage to me laying down the cash on a sc34 or sc50 vs say a garrett t3/t4.

Is it just better construction and more optimal trims and such?

They jsut seem to make huge numbers to me, even VS a T3/T4 with similar A/R's they just seem to make more power and be more effiectient

But I really need some opinions on using it for a street car

Precision makes thier own compressor/exhaust housings. The exhaust housings are extrude honed, and the compressor housings are ported nicer than standard garrett 04 housing. These turbos are really nice, people make great power with them, the only real reason to go with them is because they have some many different sizing options.

Remember Garrett's Performance turbos = Precision

So AbAz do you think I should try it out?

Like I said its going to be a street car and its going to be my first boosted car. Ill have higher compression and maybe a little giggle gas

But I dont want it to spoll @6500, shift and fall out of boost

And I cant really just try it out, since the downpipe bolt pattern is a 4 bolt and itll be a lot of work to swap turbo's

Honestly, I am always for trying stuff, but this one I can already tell you isnt going to work out to well. Sure if you like hitting NAWZ everytime you want to spool it and if you like raping the ---- out of your car to make any power, go for it. But I like a little bit of a comprimise when I'm driving a FI car, I like a decent spool time and great top end. Like I said, if you build the ---- out of your A6, port the head, get a good cam, upgrade the valve train. Use a equal length turbo manifold, 3in dp and 3in exhaust. Maybe a 10.1c/r engine, a nice Intake mani with good throttle body. A hybrid ZC/SI tranny, eh it might work out alright.

A built a6 would be good with a SC34.

Precision uses lots of garrett componets
