Went to a racing meet today In faytteville. I saw some really nice cars and a crazy hot looking chic flash for us
 . I went racing against an nissan (old school car forgot what it was called), and B16 JDM type civic swap. Unfort. lets just say that my car is slow. Lost to both cars. My car is completely stock + stock 4age ST engine (stock) too. Im at the point where drag racing is out of the question, cause my car is so slow and furthure engine mods are somewhat useless cause Im so poor. I was thinking somewhere that I might get a GTS and swap it out with a BEAMS motor. I want NA, cause its just less maintence. Any comments.. (yes! im stupid cause I race on the streets) |

slap a turbo on that 4a and some low comp pistons and you're good to go.

[right][snapback]348121[/snapback][/right] You don't even necessarily need low compression pistons. Lots of people turbocharge their internally-stock silvertop 4A-GEs...I've seen 190-215 whp dyno graphs at 5-6 PSI with T25s and T28s on silvertop 4A-GEs. The key is proper tuning. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...
