I've been looking for an fd. I really wanted to buy a broken one and have a new street ported engine in it. but they are so hard to find. and I'm taking 17 hours in my first year of college and I have a job. so I can't have a car to work on, but i've been finding alot a fd's with less than 10k on a reman. lots of people say a reman isn't very good, is that true? I want the car to be reliable. have in mind i'll do all the rely mods. and if i had the reman how much boost could it take? its going to a daily driver so never over 20 psi, but i would like to have it set at a moderate 10 psi, is that safe?

 

umm, how does this have anytjing to do with single turbo? Anyways, my friend wasnt satisfied with his reman... rebuilding is always better.

 

eventually it will be a single, so a rebuild would be better?

 

rebuild is always better, from a good builder. People seem to be happy with pineapples engine builds, also don marvel is great at building also

 

how much money r u planning on spending? You know to go single turbo you cant just throw a big turbo on there u gots to do lots of other stuff. And yes a FD can be reliable ( still havent had any MAJOR problems with mine, crossing my fingers ) But some people have bad luck with them. It always good to have a back up car, just in case. But yea I would recomend a rebuild over a reman. Oh and if you dont plan on installing most all of your own parts thats big $$$. Some of the **** I have done to my car will take it outa commision for a long weekend, but im kinda slow

 

Hey Moto3 ...... how do you like your blitz controller?

 

not in yet, but ernie t keeps sayin there bad, although I have heard nothing but good things about it. I will let u know when I install it on Fri.
