SiCaln Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 yea diff pistons, ct9 turbo, diff cams and thicker rods Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kane Posted January 18, 2010 Author Share Posted January 18, 2010 so would it be possible to put low comp pistons, strenghtened con rods, turbo cams and a turbo and manifold on the efe to make it a turbo? obviously with some aftermarket management. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SiCaln Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 also there are diffs in valve springs in the head, also things to consider like exhaust mani differencesmayb easier to drop a fte lump in, they arent that expensive these days Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kane Posted January 18, 2010 Author Share Posted January 18, 2010 ive got a fte in pieces in my garage. needs rebuilding. but the only reason i was asking that is because of the wiring. ive read on here that i need the engine loom and car loom from a glanza, indicator stalks from a glanza, etc etc. . . i am used to doing engine conversions, its actually abit of a hobby lol but ive only ever worked on vauxhalls. redtop novas, corsas etc but doing the starlet sounds like alot of work.
