ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    the mahles are alloy 4032 while most others such as wiseco are alloy 2618 however it really can't be that much of a difference. from what I understand the expansion rate of the mahle pistons alloy is less than that of the standard forged 2618 piston, that along with the coating makes them frm compatible.

        No? Something tells me that a few extra ounces can make a hell of a difference in tensile stress at 7000 RPM.

          7000 rpm, no. 10000, yes.

          if you're really worried about stress at that rpm, then you better start making power lower and back off the timing.

            True... Heavier pistons on a turbo or supercharged engine that makes max power by 6500 would probably be alright.

              heres a link I just found...
              http://www.thermaflo.com/engref_mech.shtml

              looks like a 2618 piston would also have more tensile strength than the 4032, as well as a bit higher of a melting point.

                Can't forget there already is a f22a in our cars. (toss in my random comment, lol) Making it the cheapest to start with.

                  They are very similar engines. I would personally choose the F22B, as most come with lower KM's.

                  (Well personally I would do an N/A build on an F22A. But I am insane )

                    my question is can you boost atleast like 7psi on a stock f22a engine?

                    I can't find turbo for this car anywhere
                    No longer have a cb7.

                      Yes. There are many members that run 8-10 PSI daily.

                      The best setup for these cars, or best for price, is probably that from a DSM (Eagle Talon).

                      But its not like there is a shortage of DSM setups on these forums so just look around, you'll find a TONNE of useful information

                            look a f22b and the h23 are the same head and intake manifold. the f22b and f22a are the same block. the stroke is going to have its advantages in boosting and tq, everyone knows that. the h23 is much a stronger block than a f22a/b hence its closed deck. why do you think a few companys have that cylinder brace cuz the the h22(not all)f22a/b are all floating cylinder walls. h23 hands done but if you build the block and get it tuned it all depends
