You can tell the ones you have are much taller. Look at the valve reliefs that are cut into them. If you decide to go with a lower comp pistons and then decide to turbo it, you are looking at a ton of money. Then you do that, the tranny will start to go out. If you wanna make a car fast, dont make it the aveo
BUt actually, if its not an aveo, I am not interested to make it fast. Its so common seeing a fast civic or rex. I would not be interested to buy such car to play with since there are already so many fast one out there. Havinf a fast aveo is something out of the normal and the process of going through it is much more fulfilling.Quote:

fair enough. I still say spray that bitch.
Anyone has any 2006 or newer engine for sale with the transmission and ECU? Or you know of any seller that would ship overseas?
I contacted a few US engine seller, but they do not ship overseas. I don't mind shipping by sea. As long as its cheap. Destination - A workshop in Singapore.
I have a 1.6 from a 2001 lanos sport. The timing belt went, don't know the damage but it has about $1,250 worth of P&P work done to the engine. It is also mated to a D16, close ratio since it came out of a lanos sport. It has a brand new water pump and I think a new clutch. It's only missing a thermostat. I need to check but I'm almost sure I have the ECU for it. I'll take any reasonable offer and have no problem helping with shipping. I've shipped an engine across the US and a tranny from the UK so I have some experience. Btw I'm in the West USA. Email me at Danny@KinkyMotorsports.com if you are interested.Quote:

I gotten quotes of $1300US for 04-05 aveo engine and $1400US for 07 aveo engine. Price inclusive of delivery to Singapore's workshop.
Now I am thinking of either buying a new 1.6 stock engine and Turbo it or NOS my existing stroked and bored 1680cc Aveo engine. But then again, with stock internal, its not that fun as its only limited to low boost. My exisiting engine internals are forged wiseco and forged con rods with ARP bolts.
I have heard stories of high compression having detonation problem with NOS. Mine is abt 11.1 to 11.6 compression with shaved head. I am having octance 98 petrol/gas in my country. The lowest grade of petrol I have here is 92 and 95. I usually use 98. Occasionally I will add some octane booster onto my 98 gas. Will detonation be a problem for NOS? So far no detonation problem in my high compression engine even when I pump 95 octane gas.
I have walbro fuel pump and SARD fuel regulator. What is the original aveo fuel pressure? I am having 55psi at idle now. Is that ok? Or do I need to increase some more. How much more do I need to increase to run NOS? Heard fuel richness and high octane gas is the only way to prevent detonation.
I have also seen civics running 12.6 compression ratio running 200-250 progressive shots with proper fuel supply and tuning outting 500+ horse power. I am not greedy. 50-75 shots from 82021 ZEX kit is enough for me. Is it possible?
