b14 needs transplant want det need opinions on setup
FLAME SUIT ON>lol>have done hours of searching and reading...Just got home from florida. on my way my engine took a dump.on me.in fl it did the same. bearings were replaced. by maryland they spun again but worse sounds .i got it back home with a uhaul truck. now it sits in a garage waiting on a right decision.its a b14 . i do plenty of traveling long distance with it. engine had 193k on it. was looking into a jdm swap .so far im looking into a w10 or 11 det. the swap i wanna do is basically an oem swap.i have a ecu reprogrammed already along with a w10 front mount intercooler and w10 bov.looking to maintain a t25. just need a 2.5 downpipe.looking to keep my ac and ps cc.if the front mount wont fit i was thinking of going top mount and a hood scoop for proper ventilation but was curious about opinions on this route.
would i need to use a boost controller/gauge for a oem swap>?or use a walbro fuel pump with fpr>?already know cooling issues that this swap can have. this is the reason im doing an oem swap. need to source a better radiator.does anybody here have experience of taking their dets on 1500 mile trips?already have slim fans. need to decide if a nx radiator or gtir radiator would be good or aluminum if that dont work. anyones opinion is highly appreciated .thanks a lot in advance.
