More stuff and pics coming soon....

Seen your post over on EvoM... welcome to the fast RA club!

Today was time to move on with car. Have to see what i do now, and what later.
Dont have money and time to all. Main thing is do engine internals, better cooling,new turbo setup and things like that now.
Manage to pull all off from engine bay in six hours. Next time it will be much quicker.

Was great day. Had a time to open engine and get everything on table.
Only pistons,rods and crankshaft is still in block, because i havent one needed tool to have rod bolts open. This week i also have to go buy motor rack (is this right word? :) )

I also put transmission,wheels and things like that back to car, so now i can move it in and out garage. (all what is in picture3)

Ordered first things to engine. Other plans are still open.

-AMS Ac delete kit
-AMS Torque honing plate
-DARTON sleeves
-MANLEY I-beam turbo tuff rods
-CP PISTONS on std size with skirt coatings and upgraded pins
-ARP head and main studs
-ACL rod,main and thrust bearings
-COMETIC head gasket

When i get these first parts, i will start updating carefully with detailed information and pictures. I hope that all plans is sorted out then.

There is A LOT oem parts on sale from my car. Also SST, ECU and things like that.
JUST ASK! Remember im from Finland. So heavy and big stuff will have "big" shipping costs.

First parts here this coming week. Then i will start project and updating this thread.

Now i need to decide couple things:
-Do i make stroker with Manley crank or keep 2.0.
-Turbo setup. Stock frame (example MAP Ef3) or go to T3/T4 kit.
Exhaust manifold is cracked, so i have to get new one anyway.

Hard hard...

If i only know what gonna happend with SST tuning world in future, it will clear my decisions a lot....

Why ef3 and not ef4 and give any though into a 2.4l

Why ef3 and not ef4 and give any though into a 2.4l

EF4 is way too much for SST, if i keep it.

With 2.2 i just need to get crank. But for 2.4 doesnt i have to order again new pistons/rods?
