<font color='#000000'>This #1 of two that we are building right now. &nbsp;This one is a 4g64 block and crank, &nbsp;.025&quot; overbore, &nbsp;our custom Ross 9.0:1 forged pistons, &nbsp;Eagle 2g rods. &nbsp;The balance shafts have been eliminated per the VFAQ on DSM Talk. &nbsp;The head, intake manifold, cams and turbo are all stock 2g (95) Eclipse GSt. &nbsp;The cam gears are AEM for the 4g63 that have been modified to work with 4g64's higher deck height. &nbsp;This one is going into the car this week, as soon as we pressure wash the engine bay first. &nbsp;Then we will be piping a Starion fmic and a TurboXS RFL blowoff valve. &nbsp;Dyno #s soon to follow.

We are expecting a 30-40hp increase over the 4g63 motor at stock boost and possibly as much as 50 lbft of torque from the 1.5+mm larger bore as well as the .5 higher bump in compression ratio. &nbsp;The stock t25 may be spooling as soon as 1500rpm.

We have one more in the works too. &nbsp;It will have massive capabilities. &nbsp;Same exact bottom end, &nbsp;but 1g head. &nbsp;Crower Ti valves, retainers and springs. &nbsp;Crower 414 cams. &nbsp;AEM gears. &nbsp;ACT st 5 clutch (experimental...unsprung 6 puck and 2600lb plate), SFP tubular exhaust manifold, t3/t04e 50 trim turbo, TiAL 35mm wg, GET 3&quot; downpipe, &nbsp;GET 3&quot; exhaust to APEX'i turbo N1 can. &nbsp;APEX'i SAFC, AVCR, SITC. &nbsp;2.5&quot; piping and Spearco fmic. &nbsp;TurboXS RFL blowoff. &nbsp;FWD car=tire smoke in any gear..

<font color='#000000'>Yea, and that tire spinning in every gear isn't gonna be good off the line. &nbsp;Not good at all. &nbsp;That's the beauty of having a GSX, except when it comes to fighting bog.</font>

<font color='#000000'>We are well aware of that, &nbsp;as well as torque steer.

This is where the scramble boost function of the AVCr comes into play. &nbsp;I can drop the boost lever down for the launch and delay it based on time, gear or speed. &nbsp;Very handy.

We also have AGX's and coilovers on this car to fine-tune the launch characteristics. &nbsp;On 15&quot; slicks it should be pulling 1.7 or so in the 60'.

We are more than happy to modify/tune for Volkswagen. &nbsp;When I owned my shop in MD about 4 yrs ago (Xtreme Performance Center), &nbsp;I had a ratio of about 50/50 VW and Japanese cars.

I had a stable of several very quick VR6s...GTi's and Corrados.
The main one was an all motor 96 VR6 Gti that on the stock bottom end was running 13.80s at about 101mph. &nbsp;Back then, that was something special. &nbsp;Another Corrado SLC with intake, header, exhaust and Autothority chip could spin 4th gear on his 17s whenever he wanted to. &nbsp; I didnt have too many really serious 2.0L customers... but I'm willing to help anyone out now with the benefit of add'l experience since then.

I expect to be getting more VW business soon, a dealership just opened up here at the Beach a few months ago. &nbsp;

My new building will be up by the first of the year, complete with a showroom, and then I plan on advertising for the first time since I moved here in Jan 99. &nbsp;Most people at the Beach are shocked to find out that we are even here. &nbsp;Underground... but somehow I have 15 cars in the garage...

I do have a potential customer at Shaw AFB that drives a 1.8t Jetta that I would consider a Stage 3.... I may be building an upgraded intercooler system for him. &nbsp;We'll see.

Keep in mind that these #s are just guesstimates, &nbsp;based on even more #s. &nbsp;In fact, the stock turbo may actually hurt us in this area. &nbsp;It may severely limit our powerband, &nbsp;the turbo will spool so quickly and be over it's efficiency range well before the rev limiter (will artiificially set at 7000 rpm, &nbsp;due to the rod ratio of the stroker).

I would love to see a big t28 on this car. &nbsp;In a stock 4g63 the big t28 has done high 11s. &nbsp;With the exhaust housing opened up a little more, and a bigger exhaust wheel to handle the higher displ, as well as some head work and cams, it could be capable of 10s on this motor, &nbsp;but it is a fwd.....so not likely. &nbsp;At least not this year <img src="http://www.spartanburgracing.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>

<font color='#000F22'>Is the 4G64 the 2.4L engine that comes in the PT Cruiser or PT Cruiser Turbo? &nbsp;Or the 2.4L that came in the N/A Eclipse Spyders. &nbsp;Or the 2.4L in the new Outlander?</font>

<font color='#000000'>well i guess i would need to get some cahs first and then take u my car so that it can hang in with the big boys</font>

I dunno about the new Outlander, &nbsp;but both of our motors were sourced from 95 Galants. &nbsp;The GS Spyder has the same 2.4L SOHC motor.

The last few days, &nbsp;I have been seriously talking to a guy about doing a DOHC 4g64 built turbo motor in his 97 Galant.
This would be a hella sleeper. &nbsp;May possibly use the AEM EMS to manage it.researching now.
