3T-GTE / 2T-G Hybrid Sun, 22 June 2003 09:55 Go to next message
ok so whats all the fus about this engine, and someone explain to how how it all goes together, what is needed etc. coz i would be interested in this

does it only work with no turbo, coz it seams a waste of time buying a 3t-geu and putting a 2t head on it, when i can buy a 3t-gteu and have turbo

so yeah as i said b4 some please explain, also i read that someones car beat a wrx with this mod, damn it must be a good mod...

The search funtion looks for an exact match so if you don't get what your after try a few options for example 2T-G or even via head number such as 88260. The search on here is good but its not perfect. Topis heading ;like this one won't come up for example as it has the slaxh right next to it and for some reason the search for 2T just doesn't bloody work at all Sad

If you have any more questions after reading those posts. (I'm sure you will Smile ) Then just fire away. I am going to edit the topic heading tho so it actually shows more clearly what info you were after. Hope you don't mind. Smile

yes i am offended, extreemly offended, but ill get over it... Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes

ok ill start the first question off, its sort of an confermation...
here it is, so to be able to put a 2t-geu head on a 3t-geu, i will have to fly cut my piston so they dont hit the valves? and to fly cut the pistons i will need to take the pistons out? meaning a lower half rebuild? thus making it less practical then just to buy a 3t-gteu because i will have to rebuild the engine(plus straighten the head, coz it will warp when i take it off)

would i be correct in this, also somehting about the dissy, but i got way confused then... Very Happy

cheers

A interesting read. i am thinking a N/A version at this stage,any thing to consider? most of that info seems to apply to the turbo variety.

IF you are putting a 2T-G head on a 3T-GTE then both sets of pistons will already have flycuts to suit a twincam head. The 3T-GTE also has a lower compression to any 2t_G (3T-GTE is apparenty 7.8:1 ) So depending on what cams you use you will not have to flycut the pistons.

If you use BIG lift cams then you may well need to but any engine builder can work this out for you.

Don't forget you Can always adjust your cam timing slightly so as to ensure the valves do not impact. This is not an ideal solution as the cams will not be at thei optimum timing but it is an option.

If you use a 3T-C block and pistons they will need flycuts as they are not set up for a Twin cam.

Either way you should always turn an engine over by hand after assembly to ensure nothing impacts inside.

For a N/A Hybrid you are Basically building a Big Bore 2T-G (or 3T-G as they are also refered)

In the N/A application things are indeed different. COmpression ratio's are desired to be alot Higher so you will not be using 3T-GTE pistons. As Such 3T-C pistons can be used but they will need to be Flycut and depending on your budget a nice High compression and oversize Set can make a nice improvemet.

If your on a tight budget you can get a 1mm oversize set that yeilds 9.8:1 compression for around $300. (At least you could)

As for the best computer... Theres alot out there and there specs change all the time so get one that best suits your needs. Things to consider are the load points, Number of extra outputs, Ease of tuning, if it has a handset etc etc theres alot of considerations.

Personally the Wolf 3D or 4D looks good, I was happy with the EMS and I'll be using Autronic on the next one.

ok ok ok, why must i get confused so easily... damn it... Evil or Very Mad

so say im going turbo, then i get my self a 3t-gteu block, and whack on a 2t-gteu head, this should just bolt up, no problems, i can drive the car away...yes?

then coz im going turbo, i will need the 3t-gteu's exhaust manifold and this will bold straight up, but the inlet wont, so i will need to get my 2t-gteu's inlet machiend to allow for the extra compressed air? or is this n ot important???

Also the whole point of doing this would be, to get low down power dude to the higher compression of the 2tgeu's head, with some boost for higher end power???

would i just be better off rebuilding a 3t-gteu engine, and winding more boost in to it???


also about ecu's would a haltec be good enough to run efi on a 2tgeu???
