4efe engine convertion

[stewwy_94]

Hi there I have a 4efe starlet and was wondering is it easier to turbo that engine or just put a glanza v turbo engine in it?

Im in the middle of doing this with my 4paw, decided to turbo that N/a engine.

Parts list i'm using from a GT.

Looms

ECU

Clocks

MAP sensor

Dizzy setup

Oil filter housing and bolt

PAS pump and hose

Coil and ignitor

Thermostat housing

Inlet manifold

Throttle body

TPS

Ignition leads

Injectors

Modded sump, or a turbo and oil pick-up sump for yours

Turbo kit

Intercooler

I believe the FPR, pump and rail are the same.

Think thats about it

[ryan lang]

fpr's are different

[daniel_g]

Think 85 one is the same as a GT, it does look different to the one on my Carat which would most likely have the same one as a UK 91.

Buy a GT engine with all the bits, + map sensor, dizzy, ignitor, coil, gt ecu, and engine loom. Splice engine loom into the n/a. They are very similar.

mine runs a 1n(which is no faster than a bicycle pushed by lance armstrong without snorting coke!)

i intended to swap a 5efe. I don't want turbo, I'm not after aweseome power, just some fun on the road. Was looking at 140-150ish from a 5efe

Mistakingly, i bought a 5afe instead(they look almost identical, other than identical cc and bhp) and 5efe's are somewhat hard to find. on the other hand the 4 is quite common. What do you think of

-rebore block

-polish, port and skimming cylinder head

-1.4vvti inlet manifold

4-2-1 exhaust manifold

-wide exhaust
