Ok you turbo guru's im looking at buying the required parts in from the U.S. so i can start the process so when it comes time to get my turbo kit ive got everything ready. things ive so far thought of are:
1.Spacer( should i use a head or base spacer)
2.stainless valves and hd springs. do i need gen2 specific valves or are they the same as the gen1's? also do i need new retainers or stem seals? have i missed anything to do with the valves.
3.i saw Maj mention studs. would i need to modify my block to use studs? do i even need studs or could i get away with retensioning the the factory head bolts? studs seemed pretty cheap so if there the way to go then no point cutting corners.
id really like my bike to handle 280-300hp on the odd occasion i can find some race fuel or get water/meth injection but mainly i just want an ultra reliable low 200's(not sure i could handle much more anyway hahaha) so i figured id start buying the parts in now so that everythiing is ready to go when the time comes. cheers guys
