also if you need any answers to question about your build pm me. I know more about the vitara setups then most anyone on this board if not anyone. Ive had 3 already, working on another with 450-500whp.Originally Posted by b18ej1
vitara pistons- good choice
h beam rods- good rods BUT you have to notch WAYY more then the FJT'S and the will yield around a 8:1 cp instead of 9:1.
turbo cam- the zex 59300 has been proven to be the best budget cam and it runs 150-200 BUT the new BISI 2.4 turbo cam kicks its ass but also comes with a 500 dollar price tag.
t3/t4 60 trim- perfect turbo for a d series build good for easily high 400's
rc 550cc's- unlike b series d series like to use alot of fuel and not make as much power. Id run 750's if not 880's
s2 Im- waste of money save a good chunk of change and get you a blox IM and ITR or H22 throttle body.
holley fuel rail-not a must but would help the supporting mods
FPR-kinda the same
cx tranny- d series already have suck gears and a cx tranny would kill you, run a SI/EX/ or ZC trans ONLY!
hondata s300- GREAT EMS but if your on a budget go with ectune crome gold or find a used s200
1. would the stock rods hold ~350whp? if not, what are good rods to put in a d16 turbo build without breaking the bank? Stock rods start to fail and get weak around 250ishwhp with the named setup above you should expect too spend about 2-3k depending on your connection and how much labor you do.
2. would i need to upgrade any other internals? only if you wanna rev above 7800.
3. what kind of max power can expect off this setup?400-480whp and mid 11's to low 10's depending on the chassis its in and the power you do make.
