Hey guys. I found another wrecked legacy turbo that I want to get ( the whole thing) but for now, I am going to get the throttle body and the heads (and your pressure sensor Josh). I am gonna have the heads done and put them onto my car. Any reccomedations on what to do or what companies to work with.
The plan sofar is:
Delta stage 1 regrind on the cams
Port and polish heads 5
5 angle vale job
Thinking about bigger vavles (reccommendations?)
thoughts on titanium or stiffer springs?
Head work

i bye all the factory parts new, they last the longest and can be put under alot of stress.
i have a couple heads and motors around i want to take the heads in an try and get all of what you siad done, i only have ported and polished done and it made a huge improvment.
i wish there was a kit i could bye or i need to look into who i can send them to so i get the most out of them, with good quality stuff.
i would do it bmxpunk if you got the money go for it, you can swap wrx heads but i think it would be more involved like turbo lines an intakemanifold stuff. why invent the wheel just make it better and stronger.

i would say yes, you hear about this talk about how our heads dont flow that much so it would help out.

thats one of the nice things about living where I do. We are detatched from the rest of the world or something but the labor rates to the shop I have talked to are like $20 an hour. not saying that they will only take an hour. And I dont want full on race heads just something a little better flowing. When I want race heads I will slap in some JDM sti heads-huge ports and aggresive cams.

just make sure whoever does the head work has a flow bench and can show you before and after numbers. A mile cleaning of the ports can be done by anyone with experiance doing it. Getting the most out of a head requires lots of trial and error, and lots of heads that are junk. REmoving a little bit to much material can make a head go from flowing awesome to being worse than stock. Unless you want the experiance of being the guinnie pig, don't get ambitious unless they guys has raced Suabarus for a dozen years.bmxpunk wrote:So my head gasket blew tonight!!!!!! yeah
how worth it will it be to have my heads ported and polished while I have them off the car. I dont plan on going crazy right now. I will just get a couple hundred dollars worth of work to free up a few ponies. Will it be worth it?
I wanna cry.
Flow is a tricky thing. Ask me how I know :sigh:

That quote was, I believe... for a standard port and polish and whatnot. Just standard headwork. Did you guys know that BMWs come from the factory with Ported and Polished heads?bmxpunk wrote:tris91ricer wrote:5-600? Jump on it. The last quotes I got for headwork were nearly $2k.
probably not wuite as extensive as you are probably wanting.
