Ok thanks, I'm figuring up only about 100-200 more for a GT28RS. Although it says new mounts on the sticky, does that mean motor mounts? Is there like an upgraded set of motor mounts you can get somewhere?

 

i would do motor mounts for sure i say ecstunning is your best friend

 

Guessing the RS4 upgraded mounts then? So looking at about 400-500 more for the GT28RS.

I don't know, I really think I may just do a K04 seems like you can get them for 500 or so. Then just do coil overs and what not. Then I'll build an engine later. Just trying to see how I can stretch my money here.

 

k04- ~235hp
gt2x- ~275hp
gtrs- ~350hp
gt71r- ~400hp
gt28rs- ~400hp
gt2871r- ~450hp
gt3071r- ~500hp
gt3076r- ~550hp
gt35r- 600+hp
T3/T4- 300-500+hp

Yeah that's the sticky I was looking over.

 

im thinking the gtrs turbo is the way to go so you dont blow your tranny and keeps and its not too much for the engine

 

Yeah according to the guide the GT28RS is good on stock internals. Doesn't mention much about the tranny and what not though. Does say clutch upgrade needed.

 

you can wait on the clutch lol just let it go out but the tranny i believe can hold no more than 330hp than you gotta send it out to get built up

 

Well are those ratings at the wheels in the sticky? Or just at the crank?
