anyone?

I got a email back from Carmela @ JAM said ill get a reply back today. So we will see what they have to offer.

Now ive always been told street set up go stroker,but would a fully built 2.0 be better?whats the torque/spool difference in 2.3L to 2.0L?

Also might be going a different route on turbo set up.Possibly Full-Race maybe..Also the PEAKboost top-mount is pure sex.

thanks

ok got a email back from JAM

$3,745.50 for the fully built 2.3L...EVERYTHING!venolia pistons,oliver rods,machined,balanced everything

$2,650 for the head.JAM retainers,springs, 1mm oversized valves,etc etc the works...

so how does that sound?seems very pricey but worth it?anyone deal with these motors before?

BR said they can get me a set up for $3300 and $1600

That's not the best street setup, more better off on the drag strip.

I think it would make a great auto-x setup.

Go with BR. That's a fair price for a 2.3 ltr. Get it down.

what do you think the street is? a giant drag strip , we will see if its the best setup when im beating busa's on a roll. I did the 35R and loved it, but it was not enough power, and going to 37R i would want even more after a week or two, so i siad screw it and decided to let the car sit it out for a year and build the **** out of it.
