powerful G

[samuel.cole]

Right ive decided to keep my charger set up and build some crazy ass G40 with some money i have been saving,

got a fair bit to spend, but not sure whats best for what power gains. im looking to get the most out of my charger as i know its not running at its full potential at the moment. looking at cams, exhaust, pistons, conrods, chip tune, head work the lot, want as much power as i can get afford ably.

suggestions and ideas are all welcome, im not sure what or where to get it!

thanks

Sam

you'll end up with about 180 or so bhp, it's been done.  Just go turbo

[samuel.cole]

i wanna stay with the lysholm and get it silly quick, what would you say from the list will add most power?

[hayesey]

oh you've got a lysholm charger?  I thought you meant the g-lader.

if you want to make the car quicker then a differential will be the most effective one on that list.

as for power it's a bit hard to say as we dont know what state the car is currently in.  If it's never had a proper remap then that'd be worthwhile.

[Matty!]

OCD are excellent customer service has been great for me so far!


Interested in seeing what your car will gain, as if this G lader goes again I think im going to go Lysholm crazy build too! Bet it sounds nuts!

[z3i]

Jabba are good at porting, pretty poor at rebuilding

[scotsjohn]

Before you've nailed down the engine mods., you might be advised to think about uprating the drivetrain. Half-shafts, clutch, a pail of C.V. joints and the odd spare ATV box. Power isn't cheap in your G.

[OCDmatt]

Hi, thanks Matty, that's great to hear!

Jezza, can I ask why? I might be able to clear things up for you there

[samuel.cole]

Errmmmmm one question, can i change the pulley for the lysholm (to wind it up a bit) ??!

[OCDmatt]

yes you can, BBM do a 53mm pulley for 18+psi

[samuel.cole]

can i run toothed belts on the lysholm? also where would i find spare belts/ new belts as iw ould like to replace mine!

[samuel.cole]

would a forged bottom end (wossener pistons and forged conrods etc) help, i know it would be stronger and allow me to run more boost, but straight off would it give any more power?

thanks
