GF Engine Swap + Info Please


Not_Sean

Recommended Posts

Hey guys, 
 

Damn its been long and I really need to do an update on my Focus build, but have been flat out with Rally and Endurance racing. 

Annnyyyyways. Today I bought a GF Wagon, manual, Awd with the EJ16 engine in it. Now I'm going to be stripping it out (A bit of a waste as the interior is mint) and throwing in a cage for some Lemons and or Rally Driving. 

What I wanted to find out, What would be the simplest engine swap I could do on these, its a pure track car so Cert and all that not an issue, but as its going to be a Lemons car, budget is tight. I saw from looking at the EJ Engines that the EJ203 looks like a possible option. But also as its an endurance car what engine that could work would be the best fit. Will def be staying NA. 

Also yeah if any other info on these, i really know nothing on the older Models or even the new models and getting working on them.

2.2?

 

Cheers man, Yeah was looking like that could be the option as most of that engine is pretty basic so hopefully wouldn't even need the ecu as doubt there is much difference when its so mechanical. Just hard to find info everyone seems to want to swap in the big turbo motors

Any suggestions on a good place to find a EJ22?

Wont you need to leave the EJ16 in for Lemons? 


funnily enough there is no rule against it, only that the car must cost less then $999 and I got the car for $200. so got some budget for a engine swap.

EJ25 block with EJ22 heads and EJ18 cams, one of the best N/A frankenstein combos you can get :)
I was also told that the Ej20/22/25 ECUs can all cope with that combo too, as I was looking to do it to my old 2.2 Legacy for club sport stuff.


Well damn That does sound like a pretty power combo. I wasn't looking at building a motor but that could be a good path to follow. 

Might just go for the Drop in option for now and begin building that in the background. Unfortunately I do have a few other race cars that also require some budget

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
