The idea behind the project

This is a new thread as recommended to describe the project at hand.

Take engine out.

Take engine apart.

Get head work done.
-Put new parts as needed(bigger/stronger valves if necessary?)
-New tensioner and chain
-New Rockers, guides and seals(bigger cam too? necessary?)
-Port and polish
(any other tips?)

Bottom end work
-Verify integrity(no leaks and is pretty solid, but ill check anyways)
-Dip and clean
-New bearings and seals
-New Oilpump
-Get pistons shaved/machined for lower compression (9.x:1)(or use turbo ones 8.x:1, but i would rather use the higher compression ones and lower it a bit. )
-Knife edge Crank
-New piston rings etc
-New waterpump and all that replaceable normal stuff(timing etc)
(anything else i should replace/rework? New rods?)

Put engine back together with new gaskets and seals

Put engine back to gether with turbo(K26?)

Put new flywheel and Clutch(performance)

Put head back together with new manifolds(Exhaust)

Put new fuel system(bigger 55lb injectors, Adjustable regulator)

Get management system for new system(can the old computer have a chip made to do this? or do i need a seperate system for it? maybe a turbo computer from a 951? or is that a tuning nightmare?)

Get custom Exhaust made

Put engine Back in

Hope it starts

Drive around the country and visit every one on this message board(in record time with my turbo 16v s) and have the shot with you all that i will be owed for actually doing this(with a reasonable cost )

If ive forgotten anything... please let me know... if there is anything to comment on ... again.... post...
