Lifters

[project92SC2]

OK, I've heard a few differenty types for the LLO by now, and I want to verify which one is correct. I've heard there's hydraulic, and solid out there.................. What's the verdict, and which is better?

[brokenheadz2003]

our lifters are hydraulic, solid lifters dont build up like high reving 4 bangers need them too so i guess you could say that hydraulic is better....
but i got a set of solid lifters in my car, they work if you can stand that horrible ticking noise bwahahahahahahaha....if you dont check your oil you will have a set just like mines jfwy

[project92SC2]

I figured that the hydraulic was better, was pricining myself on parts at 2am, eh..... not the greatest time to be doing that, but oh well.

LL0.

el el zero.


and it depends on the head.

[project92SC2]

Well, I guess I'm calling the dealershits tomorrow.

Brokenheads had it right on this one. I was sondering though, are you actually doing all this stuff now? If I'm doing a project I can't find time to post much. Only when I'm not "currently" doing anything to my car can I post (except for help). I just wanted to know because in place you are talking about TB's another Heads and so on. Don't take this like I'm bashing you I just wanted to know your secret (Damn hoverboards).

I'm getting ready to start, I'm STILL waiting on my damn enlistment bonus from the national guard....... wondering if it's ever going to come........ fuckers.

I'm gathering as much info as possible, so that way, I can get it all done at once.

As soon as I get the car, the head is the first thing to go to the extrude honers. When I get more money, the intake manifold and exhaust headers go next. Then I order the pistons, rods, cams, valves, springs and such.

Then I send my ECU to Jet performance to get flashed to my specs.

I'll be doing the rest as time moves on, hope to be running nicely N/A by Spring.

[The Shaolin]

no, no, no.

you have one HEADER. and stock, it's technically a manifold. don't get that honed, that's gay. Get/make a 4/2/1 tubular one.

Jet performance is a waste of money. Don't even bother.

Don't waste money on an N/A build. It's really, really not worth it.

[project92SC2]

Ok, so correct me........ der........ i dum.

next on the agenda, Jet performance....... I'm sending it to them on one condition, which, they will agree to....... if it doesn't come back the way I want it, I get my money back, and they get me a new ECU.

Dont waste your money. Might as well get a SAFC-2 or something along those lines for fuel control (Since your going N/A you dont need spark control.)

[dream36realms]

^^^^^^^ AGREED^^^^^^^

Oh, and thanx a Bazillion Heath, I am loving my SAFCii STILL!

[GTI]

You will never see any gain from Jet's "flash" nor will you ever see your money back when confronted about it.

Good tip. Know someone with past experience eh....... I've been looking into it all day, and decided no.

[TheMU47]

[sl2racer]
