Instead.

Instead of doing an egine swap i got a 1.6 block and bought pistons and a crank for the aveo and then connecting rods for a 1.6 Nissan motor along with cams and lifters and the picked up a head for an aveo at Autozone and built the motor with a few other essentials from Nissan and Chevy and the motor makes 115HP and 108ft. lBs of torgue. havent put it in the car yet but dynoed it on a engine dyno and it does idle a litlle high at 1500 but that is acceptable but i would put out more power if it had better injectors instead of the stockers.

explain in better details what you did.

What pistons, cams connecting rods, etc did you get?

do you have pictures?

Did you get it tuned?

and how do you know you make 115hp, and 108 ft lb of torque if you didnt dyno it?

Is someone telling the truth?

He said he engine-dynoed it.
That's probably bhp, so if you convert to SAE-certified hp, you're probably not making anything more than stock if you're lucky, for all the crap you had to put in to building it up.
if this isn't some sort of attention-getting bs post.

I didnt see that part where he said he engine dynoedit.

I am thinking its an attention-getting bs post.

well maybe hes settin himself up for something bigger. i dunno i guess without an actual dyno sheet tho we wont know...

that is after it has been converted to whp. i dynoed it on an engine dyno. im setting it up to run a turbo if i can get a different bottom end. my internet is down and im doing this in school want be able to reply til at least wednesday. just leave you comments and i will respond when i read them.

What was the item price list? How much machining was necessary to do this?

He probably wont answer because he didnt answer any of my questions.

so you know what i think about this post... :roll:

So is it higherr orr lower compression?

I assume higher since your setting it up for a turbo. If thats the case I'm supposed to lose up to 15% of my whp with my lower compression pistons, but they'll allow me to boost twice as much on the ssame octane gas.

the answers to all your questions are in my original post.

dont you mean lower compression?
When you turbo an engine, you should use low compression pistons because if you use high compression pistons there will be too much pressure inside of the cylinder from the boost and the compression (not good). That can result in extreme engine failure. Low compression pistons keep the compression lower because there is already enough pressure inside the cylinder from the pressurized air coming in.

In N/A engines, it is better to use high compression pistons because you want to compress the a/f mixture as much as you can before the spark goes off to make more power. There also is a thing like too much compression in a N/A engine but that problem is solved with higher octane fuel and better head gaskets.
