I'm debating on whether or not to put one in my new motor. I had it deleted in my 92 talon awd tsi, 80a duro mounts, and it was quite a shaker. Nothing crazy, but not sure if it's something I want at 31.
Then again, I still feel like it was possibly a reason my motor went, and this makes me...
Also, I'm all ears on this subject. I've done everything to a car, but build the motor. The sp63 4032 were my original choice as I doubt I'll ever go over 500hp, but I couldn't get any solid info. And don't know of anyone who has run the 4032's for an extended amount if time, and how they have...
With sp63, I don't want to get into it either, just saying about it, I don't have the time or patience to deal with BS if it was to arise. Definitely have helped this platform.
100% will be a daily driver. Maybe autox 1-2 times a year, 1/4 mile a couple times a year. But i'll be driving to and...
You mean these - http://www.speedperf6rmanc3.com/products/speed-perf6rmanc3-custom-pistons-for-mazda-mzr-disi.html
I was thinking about those, but I've heard that people had to wait 3-4 months or more to get them. And it's sp63, i've heard horror stories, haven't kept up with everything going...
I've got the Manley H-Beam's coming in today. I'm leaning towards the Wiseco OTS pistons. A friend just finished building his motor in his '12 EVO, went with Wiseco pistons, no piston slap, quiet like stock, etc. I've also read threads on MSF and here from others who have went Wiseco, only found...
Yeah, it's looking like Manley rods and SP63 4032 pistons. Was hoping someone else had luck with another brand. Not all to big on buying aftermarket rods, and then having to machine and balance again.
Ok, so going to purchase some aftermarket rods to get a motor built finally. I'm looking to go with the stock pistons along with the aftermarket rods. 425-450whp max as a goal (probably S4 & meth), not a dyno/track/hp queen. Don't need rods that support 1000hp when I won't even be pushing half...
HKS sucks on these cars. Ran one for about a week in both recirc and vta mode, shifting is garbage, pig rich most of the time.
CS BPV has been awesome to me. Spring broke inside once actually, CS replaced it no problem for me. Other than that, not one problem.
Been busy with the amount of downtime I've had thanks to injector seals. Still have more to do paint. Just a quick mock up of some if it, cannot wait until it's finished.
So, I installed a DM OCC around 25k miles ago when I decided to clean my valves and install my PNP IM. Took it all off today again, trying to figure out a problem, and decided to snap some pics. Was pleasantly surprised to see how clean they are still compared to how they were.
Also want to add...
This is awesome, I know I'm definitely interested in this. Was going to get the quick latches from the other group buys and just never got around to it. Happy I waited, fitment looks prefect.
