hi
ive been reading a lot of this...i recently own a beams rep top engine for my AT180
the engine is totally swaped..finally
heres my doubt...i want to turbo my beams...i know its a high compression engine...so it need low compression pistons
but ..does anyone know who can make me some forged pistons? what else should i need besides that? vvti have to be removed?
from what ive read i know there are 2 succesfull turbo-beams..the hks and..a guy i think hes from uk thought and altezza-black top and 3sgte pistons wont fit...=( any ideas?
does anyone have some info about this project?
thanks in advance
paul =)

im only assuming the beams cams are slightly more agressive, have no evidence to prove this, just an assumption, if anyone has the duration and lift figures of any or all gens of the beams engine ill interested to know. Remembering the beams doesnt have adjustable valve lift, just timing.
I'll look into this today.

why would you disable vvt-i? i'd just change the kick in point from 4.5k to about 3.1k (just above highway cruising rpm) with an aftermarket controller.
ok but VVT-i is continously changing throughout the rev range, thats why its call VVT-i
