Sup guys just wondering if this would be a good rebuild kit?

Sounds like a great product and a great company..
I've always had great luck with ebay parts. I bought a 36 dollar set of headers for a del Sol and they looked & preformed perfectly.
but for the same price, you could buy another 1.8 long block with low miles.
I could see rebuilding instead, but i'd go with higher compression pistons if i was going through all that trouble.Last edited by Fester's Quest; 01-08-2013, 03:10 AM. -
I was planning to turbo but I dont know if im going to have enough money for the turbo right now, so I didnt want to run to low compression pistons, you think the new stock pistons will hold the boost? thanks and yeah ebays were its at lolComment

What psi are you looking to run your turbo at ?
Please, someone intervene if you know how much boost a stock BP can take, but judging by how reliable they are... i wouldn't think 3-5 lbs of boost would make it wear out pre-maturely.
I bet you could buy a junk yard long block + turbo for just a little more than what you would pay for the rebuild kit.Comment

just like 8 psi daily driven then I was planning to race it at the drags so maybe alittle more after that. Its just theres no other engines like this on my island haha. I was think the kit like this http://www.ebay.com/itm/CP-Forged-Tu...18bf45&vxp=mtr but it is pretty pricing and I wanted all the gasket too. What do you think?Comment

You'll have to get eurostiva to confirm this but if I remember correctly his BP has stock internals and he is running 20psi of boost. I could be TOTALLY wrong and I apologize if I am, but that's what I remember him saying. Try looking at eurostiva's build threads and you might find the info.88L - Awaiting bigger and better things
