[westopher]

JESUS haha. I'm trying to decide wether to keep my car NA and slowly pick away at it until its fast or just blow some cash on supercharging it. Even with everything done short of machining/stroking etc. I'd be lucky to get it up to 280.:okay: Supercharging would put it around 360 but everyone I've talked to has had a few issues with the kits available. Maybe I'll just stay slow.

I think you should keep it NA and slowly pick at it. I know some people who had the supercharger kit and they were faster without it at the track, not to mention a better drive too. Personally I'd like to keep my cars NA, I just like that feel even off the track.

N/A power > forced induction power

I'd rather have 280hp with a solid balanced motor than a boosted 360hp and extra wear on the stock motor. Pretty soon the motor will need attention. Not to mention the issues you have heard of with others with the kit. After driving many S/C'd and turbo'd cars I much prefer an N/A power band and power delivery.

[westopher]

I loved the turbo power delivery of my gti. It seemed much more violent than my M3, although it only had minimally more power. The scream of a high horse power (relatively speaking) N/A engine though is intoxicating.

Interesting. I don't really dig on the power delivery in my STi. Yeah, it's fast I guess. Good on highways and whatnot but it suffers down low and falls off fast up top. The ITR is so completely different and wonderful(yeah, I said wonderful) in the way it connects you to the car and the power delivery. The modulation and control is far better than any car I've ever driven(beside some P cars)

....a little off topic but fuck it! :devil:

You have to remember that your STI is a horizontally opposed boxer motor and as such, will have unique challenges and characteristics as engineering and physics dictate the outcomes.

Your ITR on the other hand, is a completely different motor. The two aren't a fair comparison. Let alone the AWD vs. FWD layout.

Modulation and control - N/A (in most cases) is best.

Oh for sure. Was more comparing with owned cars; like westopher with a FWD turbo GTI and a RWD N/A E36. To make it fair I'll compare 230whp N/A ITR with a 315whp turbo'd ITR, which I drove years ago, and I'd still take the N/A based on power delivery and responsiveness.

[meme405]

Good bump.

My previous post stated I wanted to Bore my 3.5L to 4.2L and go Twin Turbo with a 6 Speed swap.

I've shifted directions now, I plan on keeping the stock VQ in the car for atleast two more years. Within that period this is the goal:

http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u245/HumbertoCALI/Stealth%20FX%20Vrs%202%20Final/RearProfile4.jpg

Gonna be sending my FX down to AutoExplosion in California for a widebody Conversion.

http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u245/HumbertoCALI/Stealth%20FX%20Vrs%202%20Final/iForgedFrontWheel.jpg

After that work is complete, I'll probably start the process of getting together the pieces from a QX56, so I can swap in the VK56.

Basically take the 5.6L v8 and 7 speed transmission out of one of these:

http://www.nicoclub.com/articles/QX56_Escalade/2011_QX56_side_view.jpg

And pack it into my FX.

It's interesting that others just threw out crazy ideas, and that's great, but once I get a crazy idea into my head, I can't stop thinking about it until I actually do it.

So although these are dream mods for me, it's also very likely that they will likely actually happen, since I'm out of my mind.

Horrific.

Before I started driving a diesel 1 ton daily, I had a 1/2 ton Ram with the hemi 5.7 and it was almost the same mileage as my FX.

The diesel isn't really comparable because I tow a trailer around most of the time.

Nice thread bump. Here's me last year.

I don't think I could narrow it down to one thing. I guess right now it would be a Cosworth EJ257 big valve long block and bigger turbo.
However, if I sold my car and bought a Taco ACOR I'd want the TRD charger.

STI is gone and in good hands. Now I have a 4Runner(not a Taco as planned). Would still like the TRD charger but really don't care for worse fuel economy and the premium fuel requirement.

Might be picking up a lil' sumpin sumpin this weekend and all it would need is storage space.

[euromoron]

I'd say my dream mod is swapping out my ABA 2.0L for a AWP 1.8T from a later model MK4 GTI/GLI. I'd probably get some sort of LSD to put the power down as well, but I'm not sure if I'd keep my stock transmission. I'll be doing handling stuff first though; coils, brakes, wheels/tires, whatever I need to be able to control the extra horsepower that swap will give me. My skinny-ass Canadian Tire cheapo tires and stock brakes/suspension sure as hell ain't gonna cut it.
