good find denis...def find of the month/week

[Denis]

yey, im usefull for some thing

[AveoSam]

yea u could say that (j/k) um i cant find the turbo kit listed for our engine do we have to call for info?

[Denis]

our engine is x16xe, and its the first kit from the top.

and the prices are $965 CAD/834 USD for forged pistons kit, and $ 2210 CAD/1912 USD for turbo kit with pistons.

[Lonewolf20]

heh that price for the full kit is kind of a turn off for me right now, gotta wait till till im on my last 10 payments of the car before I go buying anything that expensive for it

[AveoSam]

i wonder how much hp you could get out of this

[Nemasys]

well im more interested in the forged pistons, at least now you can build your own turbo with good boost without having to worry about frying the pistons

[exodus]

Has anyone looked into water injection?

For the uninformed, it's exactly what it sounds. Injects water into the intake, to keep temps down, to reduce the chance of knocking/detonation... thus allowing higher boost.

Often used in rally cars.

Also, it doesn't look like that kit includes injectors. That's pretty expensive without injectors... though maybe the stock injectors are decent... who knows.

[aveoike]

is this from N. America or in europe? If in euorpe, can it be shipped here at a decent price? I'll wait til warrenty runs out

[AveoSam]

i think its a european company....i just get the forged pistons and build your own kit...it would prolly be cheaper(360dynamic makes turbo headers)

Kit is nice, but I would opt to build my own around a Garrett GT28R turbocharger. Its perfect for the small engine and good to around 250-270hp.

This is the 28R turbo, not the 28RS which is the "Disco Potato". 250hp in such a small car is plenty..

I would opt for custom Crower rods as well, if have to replace the pistons might as well replace the rods.

With a 255lph pump and 550cc injectors that should be plenty for a step like this.

And yes I have, well she has an Aveo -

[AveoSam]

stinks that the tranny would break before 200hp
