i dont know the condition of the injectors i got,. but i send it to my pomen to service it back. change the oil seal or something inside there. :)
TD04HL seems nice. frm RVR rite? just a lil bit mod to the extractor doesnt hurt much i think. as i save much on the injectors and i/c+piping already. :)
im thinking of changing my head gasket to metal 2mm. for the sake of lowering my compression as some people say high compression turbocharge is dangerous. huhu~
Well, looks like u're already trapped into the hunger for thirst even before u've bolted on... Ok, lemme share this with u.
The thicker the gasket is, u're more prone to gasket leakage. In the states nowadays, they use 1 piece of thick copper gasket instead of multiple layer steel gaskets. Too bad, there's ain't copper gasket in our market and there's no 4G9X stuff in the states.
And, 2mm metal gasket for 4G9X, I'm not sure if u can get it... If u could, what about the cost..?
So, the best way to reduce the CR is to change the pistons. However, U mentioned about cost saving... So,
If U're not boosting high, U don't need to reduce ur CR that much. Reducing too much can cause sluggish response. Well, U have to really make up ur mind now before u start buying ur stuff bro...
9+:1 CR low boosting low with good respose and average top end, or
8+:1 CR high boosting with average response and good top end.
If u can't make up ur mind, u'll end up spending money for no reason and continue deciding....
Just my 2 cents.
