Looking to build: 4age vs. 5age vs. 7age
Posted: Fri Apr 12, 2019 10:58 am
Hey everyone,
2 things first:
1: I've done some searching here and have realized that a lot of the good information that has once graced us here on Club4ag has been lost.
Although this is still out there regarding 7ag vs. 5ag. http://club4ag.com/faq_and_tech_pages/5A&7A.htm
2: I've been in contact with Manon Racing Products (MRP) out of NZ to build me something amazing and just ship it to me. Based on what I want, they seem to suggest 7age.
PLEASE Provide structured feedback for each setup. If you have a motor to add e.g. 9ag etc just add it but I think it will help everyone if you can organize your thoughts/opinions/experiences in some way. Example:
4ag: Blahahah
5ag: Blah Blaha
7age: Blahahahh
Final thoughts: blahah here is why blah blah
You get the idea.
I want to put together a proper plan first. I know you all will really help guide me. I've been around the scene and this site since around 2004-2005. Anyways...
How will I use the car? How much am I willing to spend? What do I want or have to have?
1. Mostly a street car with an occasional AutoX day
2. Motor Budget: 10-12k-ish...
3. Lot's of opinions on this, but I already have a BT 20V head and I want to stick with it.
-I'm not necessarily after a specific HP # but somewhere in the 175-185 WHP would be ideal.
-I want it to rev smooth, beautiful, and sing insane ear magic. 8k to 9k would be ideal.
-MRP will be doing 20V Headwork (unless you know of better)
-Coil on plug is a YES.
To me, do it right, or not at all.
*I'm not an expert nor a 4age expert so I'm open to all advice and feedback that's good spirited.
Thanks Guys!
