    Default 1G-GTE build

    hi guys
    just gonna give a quick rundown on my car, engine etc
    i started with a mildly modded 89 GA-70
    got sick of blowing ct-12's so i went single
    i had a turbo kit made and installed by ASE
    then fitted an emanage and tuned for 170rwkw @ 8psi
    at the moment, my car sits gathering dust as it got hit by a drunk driver
    so while im sourcing another A-70 shell, im rebuilding my 1ggte.
    there's a lot going into it so it will be interesting to see how it goes
    any questions let me know
    and i am strippin my current ga as parts to fund the new shell etc, so if anyone needs anything, hit me up.

    yer mate, it was more of a tech one i think, was more testing the water to see if anyone has any queries about the setup etc..
    if anyone knows the best way to contact kyle (6Boost) lemme know
    need to speak to him urgently

    Seems like a pretty straight forward setup. I made 170rwkwwith my 1GGTE totally factory except boosted to 15psi. Surely you would want more than that with a single setup and aftermarket support.

    a standard 1J will easily make over 200rwkw and thats just the beginning, they have so much potential. But if you have your heart set on a 1G expect to bend over and cop it cuz it will have to be all custom parts. I am in the process of building my 1G to factory specs and I will be spending about $1500 before I even tough a tool and thats with no mods.

    The number the you messaged him on yesterday is the best number to get him on...

    He is absolutely flat out getting orders done before christmas, so may take a little while to reply if he remembers. Best thing, if you feel it is important, give him a call. I don't think he will mind.
