Well the deal with the Ka fell through since this motor was hitting so many snags, so im back to running the l20b!
I ordered new pistons since the one broke, started port matching my intake and exhaust (didnt really take the time to do this on the l16), i got the head all re-assembled just need to adjust the valves, and i picked up a bigger turbo! it kinda sucks cause it needs to be rebuilt, put that kit in the mail, but i figure it was free, and the td04 was much to small for that l16, drove me crazy how easy it boosted...
Now that its going back in my car, i must say im pretty excited to see how it does! ported head, fully balanced bottem end, fresh motor this time, lightened fly wheel, bigger turbo, gunna hopefully actually plumb in an intercooler since its all apart anyway, should make some good power, hopefully there will be a noticeable difference from the l16!
