it depends really.

basically what i meant was that bewst parts are always good. and i was getting mixed up about what you wanted, i saw 1.8 and thought you meant 1.6....so yea,

bewst?:vash2:

Thanks buddy boy!

aint she hot! mmm it gets me all bothered up! :jerkit:

i see its smoking, but is it knocking at all? other than smoking, is it running smoothly?

very drivable, not a lot of knocking or at least not that i can notice. TONS of smoke, but runs surprisingly smooth on 3 cyl, though at certain points the engine runs with more power than others. For instance: WOT gives slightly less power than half or 1/3. seems to be a sweet spot somewhere. seems like #3 cyl is burn out for one reason or another and barely has compression.

but did get it up to 90 on a down hill.

test the compression... if it is all decent, might just be a blown headgasket... change it out, and keep the 1.8 in that case, then sell the 1.6 for money towards a Megasquirt

will do

also, the body lines are about as straight as a miata owner... did it get dumbo dropped from a helicopter? any previous accident history?

the best part is the hood art. Decals are ghosted in. hard to see in pic.

PO went backwards into a gas station with the door open...guess what happened next

haha... thats fun then. lol

:laugh:

Hey look it's a wannabe Fae. This should be good.

OH AWESOME!!!! IT REVS FASTER BUT GOES SLOWER.

typical m.net response. why are you wasting the effort, just get your 1.8L built faster.

Because 1.6>1.8 duhh


*edit:

I actually used to make fun of guys that took forever to build a BP, and now I have a spare BP, all the parts, all the turbo parts, and basically everything for a super awesome build and setup sitting in the shop for over 5 months while I don't have time to build it.

UGH

i was trollin yo, chillz mate

What have we done to deserve this....
OP, swapping in a 1.6 = AIDS.

Great, another opportunity for me to try to sell my brand new FM 1.6L turbo pistons to help fund my 1.8 project

Buy them, pretty please?
