I'm in the process of getting parts for a 500bhp build, I think I have most sorted apart from the engine build and rs diff kit which I will source later I would just like a little help if someone could tell me what I'm missing parts wise.

So far I have,
Syvecs ecu
Nitron r3 coilovers
Twin plate clutch
Koyo rad
Uprated 80 series turbo(gets the car running quicker)
750cc injectors
Rev3 ported inlet manifold
Fp race manifold
Metal turbo pipe

The car already has an aftermarket exhaust yet I have no idea what it is or size.

Parts I think I have left to get are

S90 throttle bidy
Sensor pack for ecu
Hardpipe kit
Fuel pump and reg
Front and rear roll bars
Pf front disks and pads.

Am I missing anything else?

Will the 80 run at 500?

Will the 80 run at 500?

No probs 470bhp but I'm running short of cash so better get the car running at that power than spends £££ more waiting for a full frame kit.

What Cams.?

And that will take some doing... 500 out of an 80 series.? .. What boost? You will strangle it to death.

 

[stevebt]

Phil, I don't expect to get 500bhp out of that turbo but I expect to get the car up and running at a nice spec so I will have time to source the right turbo spec. I do have a billet gt35r in my garage but I need a lot more cash to support that turbo.


Cams will be on the engine side and that is something I won't be sourcing as better for the engine builder to source everything?

U having rod job too?

U having rod job too?

I need a full rebuild.

 

[evo baz]

Does your engine need rebuilt already?

If not then a rod job is enough for 500 bhp (as long as you have an E6 or later engine) Some places will do a rod job on an E5 using later pistons.

 

[stevebt]

I will never be happy with just 500bhp so a rod job is out of the question

 

[craig5]

Can't you get a high grade rod job?

 

[stevebt]

Although a rod job would suit my pocket it won't suit my future plans

 

[craig5]

Don't Mg do a 800 hp rated 1?

 

[stevebt]

Thanks for your input on the engine

I'm really wanting to know about supporting mods I may of missed or need as I know I need an engine

 

[Evo87]

I think you mean drop ins, which has pistons and rods done in situ mg charge £1795 for this and norris does long rod drop in for £2895 but comes with a custom spec piston and extras as standard.

 

[Conrad]

No need for these parts at 500hp:

S90 throttle body
Fuel pressure reg ( stock is fine )

 

[Mita]

Cop?

 

[Conrad]

Cop?

Not needed for 500hp

 

[Mita]

Will work ok without? Or total waste of money?

Not needed for 500hp

Small thing; catch can system...? How old is the engine..?

 

[20watt TME]

What about an uprated intercooler mate?

Something like a Greddy Ls should do the job for 500
