Welll I just got a .64 a/r t2 gt2871r that was suppose to be a .86a/r so I am a little upset and this thread really upsets me more. I want 350 dd whp with this turbo and i want some nice topend too...

No you don't! I have now swapped 3 sr mtors and found the gtir to be a real big pain in the azz. It has alot of different parts, which makes finding parts difficult. Cams are a real pain to find un...

Well what do you think about the ARP head studs? I talked to some UK guys and they say they are better then stock, but not by alot. He said his buddy and few others were making in excess of 500whp ...

Last time I checked it was a nice and even 160 across the board.

Thanks guys for all the responses:bigthumbup: I knew it was very strong, but wanted to here it thats all.




The avenir is a very stout motor in its on right and will handle probably the same...

gtir stock bottom end hold????

Maybe you didn't tighten it enough or made it to tight? I know alot of people that won't run the nylon, but I am and so far no problems..(fingers crossed) No if it breaks then its time to move on t...

Well here is a good way to look at it, I think the mechanical is more accurate???, but you risk fluids in the car??? Now with electrical is basically more wiring and "probably" not as accurate........

I have been using my nylon now for 2 years and never a problem.

I will definitely think about it, thanks for the suggestion i just never ran meth before and frankly don't know anything about it. I also don't have a window washer tank anymore since I got the new...

I don't think my o2 sensor even works...lol

You aint kindling. The funny part is it happen while in nuetral sitting in a parking lot talking to a friend:confused:

I am going to go with the ARP head studs from my boys at jgy for the great price of 137.00.

Not as bad as you think. I mean don't get me wrong its alot easier to do a w10 or u13, etc....

I think I want to upgrade to something because in the future I may plan to run a much bigger turbo and want to be prepared. Like i said maybe i will just try the arp with the apexi metal HG, which ...

Maybe i will just go with the ARP's then. What do you think?

btw did you get that rocker out yet? And btw my spring or whatever you want to call it because it really isn't a spring is in good co...

I am not using a regular sr20. I want peoples opinions that own gtirs and have upgraded there headstuds and what they use. Honestly I really can care less about a regular sr20de motor.

So what do you recommend? Should I get stock, arp, cosworth, or any others??

help me out here?

btw I am only going to making 350whp dd and 400+ at the track...but want to be ready for something l...

Yeah, I am going to take the plunge and just get them. I think I'll order them by the end of the week.

Just thought I would put t out there thats all.
