As the topic shows im turboing my 19 16V. Found a donor engine, a GT22 turbo (with T3 housing AR60), making a manifold my self (gonna look like the BB one without inlet for the external wastgate since this is on the turbo as standard.
Im going for a spesso kevlarheadgasket 1,6 mm lowering to about 9,2:1 on standard pistons. Then i was looking at other pistons, and found out that the Megane Coupe 2,0 16V and the willy pistons are also lower than the original valver pistons. My question is now. Will these pistons be able to handle 250 bhp? If no.. any one knows which pistons to buy? (e.g. serialno. og fabricno.? to ease my pain). Also what clutch to choose since the standard will hold to about 200 lbs i need something bigger to hold the line. Looked at OMP torision, and rigid which seems fair in price. Anything else that would be recommended?
The last thing will be the box which naturally should be a willy box. Also looked at another JC5 box from a megane Tdi which might do the job. And is a lot high ration.
My standard JB3 box dies at 155 mph with the new chip which revlimits at 8200 rpm. ive seen 142 mph on the revmeter (7300 rpm) which was 145 mph on the clock. (pretty good on an almost standard valver hehe!).
Basically i need some help from you guys! Hopefully my car will be done in the late summer since it will need a complete rebuild in the engine.
