Amjad Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Cat back system improves top end power a little and better response. Better to spend more on handling parts if I'm honest as it's a lot more cost effective. An NA 4efe isn't going to be fast without throwing a fair bit of money at it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mernagh Posted February 7, 2013 Author Share Posted February 7, 2013 Yeah thats true thanks for the advice !! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mernagh Posted February 7, 2013 Author Share Posted February 7, 2013 Is there much work on putting 4age silvertop itb's on the 4efe ?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mike@TD.co.uk Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Turbo it? Can be done and kept reliable if you spend money in the right areas. Cheers Mike JonesTuning Developments Ltd Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flaminsam Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Has anyone ever thought about supercharging? Rotrex supercharger or maybe the standard supercharger from a mini cooper s? Eaton m45? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Xpect Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 TripleX from the German Forum supercharged his 2E-E with afaik an Eaton M65 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rmsnoel Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Lad a 4 branch exhaust manifold sounds cool and helps performance. Obx youll find them on ebay for a 5efe. Your S is already as good as we would hope our uk engines to be. 50mm throttlebody but you need to make a 45_50mm spacer. 50mm are handy found but id need a photo of yours to tell u what type to get.Avoid glanza inlet manifold, your tubular manifold gives a good strong flat torque curve. Keep it well serviced and drive the tits off it and shell be plenty fast. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PaulStarletSR Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 5efhe cams, full stainless system inc sports cat and mani, piggyback and strip the interior Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rmsnoel Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 U dont need a cat because its a jap import so just gut it out, 5efhe cams are rare as the high lift ones were only made in the early 90's and the later ones arw just the same as ours. Keep the interior its noisy and boring with just two seats.emanage blue is only £200 these days and is a super duper piggyback ecu. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I thought the new mot regs stated if it was made after 93 then every car must have a cat on it? Also pretty sure all 5efhe are high lift, its the 5efe that are the same Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Asad Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 The best combo I found is with a 45mm throttle body and FTE manifold gives you best of both worlds, made the car a much better motorway cruiser...keep the standard air box too just throw a panel filter in Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PaulStarletSR Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Also pretty sure all 5efhe are high lift, its the 5efe that are the same morgeys right, the 5efhe r the high lift 1s.....like mine! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rmsnoel Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Lads not all 5efhe are highliftCorolla manifold with a 50mm throttlebody is the best of both worlds :-)After 1993 is for uk cars. Not import cars without a uk equivilent. No glanza or gt turbo needs a cat. Boths facts... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
starletburkie Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 .6mm trd hg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rmsnoel Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 .5mm 5efe headgasket from toyota. Half the price of trd. I wonder can the traders source these cheap from toyota although it get expensive becuase of the work involved.Rolla manifold, 50mm 4afe throttlebody and emanage blue.

Mernagh Posted July 19, 2013 Author Share Posted July 19, 2013 Any way of putting silvertop 4age itb's on my 4efe ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rob_bower Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Just thought I'd throw this in the mix. http://bit.ly/12N7clN Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 ^^^ chrisgreen1993 i think is his user name has just got his running on a set if them. Even the tps was the same just needed a tab filing off the casing of the plug! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chris Green Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 ^^^ chrisgreen1993 i think is his user name has just got his running on a set if them. Even the tps was the same just needed a tab filing off the casing of the plug! I managed to get a set running on mine, still need a bit of tweaking though. The ones on the eBay ad might not work with your setup as the TPS is a 1st gen one. Also the ones on the ad, the orignal manifold has been cut and hose just been placed over the bottom of the runners, bit of a bodge job really. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rmsnoel Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Most if not all motorbikes use a bit of hose pushed over abit of a manifold.The 1st Northern irish starlet on ITB's used silicone hoses pushed over a cutdown manifold. Always use your orginal tps unless you measured the resistance of the pontentiometer over its range of movement. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chris Green Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I know they use a hose connecting the throttles to the stubs, but the one on eBay has just used the standing starlet manifold. If you look the hoses are really stretched at the bottom. The standard manifold isn't regularly sharped. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobSR Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Oh someone put a rotrex 3094 or something on an n/a lump. would be legend. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mernagh Posted July 31, 2013 Author Share Posted July 31, 2013 What if I done small things like parts from a ep82 This might sound stupid but say aEp82 fuel rail or injectors or other things like that ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ryan lang Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Will over fuel like crazy dude. Fuel rails are the same anyway but the injectors will drown the spark and it won't run when you floor it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
