Hi from Toyota Carina n/a modder

[TARManiAC]

Hi all. I´m from denmark and I have a ´95 Carina E Gti that I´m currently (well on and off) modding. Trying to get to around 240 hp from it in the end. For now ( this summer) 220 will do. I´ve had the cam reshaped at a tuning shop, a friend skimmed 1mm off the head and I´ve done some work to the head myself. I´m starting from 188 hp (´95 octane fuel) almost standard with only a decat and panel filter, so I think I have a good starting point. I´ll get a lightweight flywheel for it along with a few other mods (adjustable cam pullies, adjustable fpr and a catch can). Later on a standalone ecu and other mods will follow. The engine gets a complete strip down, rebuild with new pumps, belts, filters, bearings, clutch, ignition wires, gaskets and valve guides. Flywheel, clutch, crank, pistons, rods and crank pullie are all getting balanced.

I plan to start a thread about my car, so I´ll stop for now
