if you hadnt asked I could have told you
The 4294 has the largest compressor wheel that they can use, 72mm.
the 4202 is a 74mm.

Fuck SFWD. TurboStreet is where it's at!!! hahaha j/k
I'm debating whether to go air/water or just regular front mount. I doubt I'll ever race at a NHRA event. They are mostly west coast events except for Moroso or Atco.
It's amazing the powerband of Peter's car and how it fast that big as turbo spools.
I have to rebuild shortblocks every once in a blue moon here at Nissan but when my block gets back we all know that Peter's assembling it!! I trust my work w/ a customer's car but just like many raceshops throughout the world THEY TRUST SOMEOONE ELSE TO BUILD THEIR RACE CARS!!
Now hopefully I'll be building my own streetcar motor sooner or later but NOT the racecar. I don't care what people say about me but I'm a realist as I've always said. Just keepin it real.

Yeah, there is a thread going on on H-T talking about people building engines that will make 800whp and people that build 800whp engines that will last. I mean it would be badass sending an engine to jim justice and i wouldnt feel ashamed in the slightest is a shop like that built a motor for me. It just a motor needs freshening up after a season and I wouldnt send it back to them to be freshened up. Because you putting new bearings and rings and all that wouldnt be any different than putting it all together yourself. All of their torque and clearance specs are gone once its disassembled, or the bearings are worn. I mean hell I wouldnt doubt it if the sponsored guys have a fully rebuilt engine I.E. all new parts, every season. I just dont see that necessary. But you do pay for knowledge, and if they can build a motor that makes more/same power at less boost and last longer then thats badass.
in regard about the 42R being overplayed, I could say it has been to an extent , BUT the fastest guys are using it. BUT its not not the reason they are the fastest, and I dont think a lot of people understand that.
Yeah I know exactly the thread you're talking about. The best reply on that thread is:
There's a difference between assembling a motor and building a motor.
Anybody can go get a Helms manual and assemble a motor. But builders generally know the ins and out and special "tricks" to doing it better than stock. Not just better than stock internals.
There's a big difference in assembling and actually building such as stretching the rod bolts, filing the rings, gapping the rings, and better torque specs for the type of motor you're building.
Generally builders have years of experience and many trial and error moments that no one knows about.
I respect and appreciate Peter b/c of the longevity of all his last race motors on his old hatch. Which only totalled 2(one stock) and one built. Both lasted full seasons of racing and way too many Fast Fridays, Import Showdowns, Import Face-offs, and TunerFest shootouts w/o a hiccup.
Now I'm not saying he didn't have other accessory problems such as axles, turbos, and the occasional main relay but the longblock held together like a champ.
Oh and I know many people are gonna say you really don't know what happens after hours or how many times he tore it down and found a problem-but my reply is I DO!! And many of his friends and family(Bee) also know that he didn't have any problems and wasn't doing overnight rebuilds so people wouldn't find out.

i had to quote that for the next time you say something about me not building my 2.0l motor LOLOriginally Posted by BLK JDM

Sorry buddy we've had plenty of spats but never got on you for not building your motor. If I remember correctly you and silviadriftr got on me about my last hatch when it was built allmotor then the guy that bought it wanted it turbo and I didn't tell yall(didn't know I had to) that I rebuilt the motor before he took the car back to Chi town.
