    Would this work..... GTR stuff on b6t

    Was wondering what the gains would be to install GTR stuff to the b6t. I am talking about gtr rods, gtr ecu, gtr airflow meter, gtr injectors with a Walbro 255lph fuel pump & Weisco piston.

    Zero. All that'll happen is you'll run pig filthy rich. B6T rods, plenty strong, GTR rods are barely an upgrade. Might as well put Hbeams in instead. GTR pistons will not fit. I don't think you can bore out the block enough to force them. Everything else on your list is worthless without airflow to support it, which is never ever gonna happen with a 1.6 running a vj14.
    '90 AWD Protege, full GTR drivetrain swap, ~320 whp daily driver, RIP, and
    '90 AWD Protege, yet another GTR swap, Open class rallycar with a Toyota GT4 gearbox swap, thus crossing the line between hobby and mental illness. And a Brabus E55 K8, removing all doubt.

      Upgrading the fuel system + pistons over stock will support the extra air flow, but you need to upgrade that turbo. Even a VJ14/VJ11 or VJ14/tbird will help carry you to redline at 16PSI, maybe a VJ20 if you can do a bit of fab work. Don't bother with the GTR rods, B6T rods are plenty strong.

        I never said anything about using the gtr piston. I have the following gtr management consisting of the airflow meter, injectors, ecu & a set of gtr rods that i was gonna swap to the bpt in my car. However i came across a sweet deal that i could not pass up and that is acquiring a brand new megasquirt 2 for 390us assembled . I have 2 turbo to choose from Garret t25/28 & tdo5 16g that i am not gonna use on the bpt since i recently acquired a t3/t4 turbo, I also have a b6t laying around that is missing a rod & piston and i figured that i would just swap all that i would have used on the bpt to the b6t, like what Greg Downey did when he used the b6t stuff n run the bpt. The Weisco piston is the new set since i am missing a rod n piston from the engine.

          Well now that's a bit more info, ain't it. If you have megasquirt you can ditch the airflow meter since that's a map system (most of them, check with Lex on yours to make sure). GTR injectors should be an OK match with the t25, not sure on the mitsu thing though. I've not messed with those.
