4A-GE 20v Turbo questions

Postby nas_man » Wed Dec 10, 2014 12:16 am

hi im new to the forum i'm from cape town south africa
my intro thread is here viewtopic.php?f=21&t=93190
i'm currently running a silvertop 20v with ze rods and pistons
car make 304kw on 1.4(20psi)
i would like to increase the boost to about 1.8bar(26psi)
am i able to boost that high with ze pistons???
most guys here in cape town told me that i wouldn't be able to boost 20psi
i was hoping that you guys could maybe shed some light and give me some advice???

im also considering fitting some cams
have you guys seen better gains with the kelford or tomei cams

apologies for all the questions but with the time difference its best to get all my questions in one post and check in tomorrow

thanks

Itll work. Just a question of how long will it last?

That will also be influenced by the care and attention but into building the engine, and in maintaining it.
