I'm looking to upgrade my internals but idk what im even looking to buy and I don't want to but anything I don't know what it does or anything

 

look at some of the threads on here for some ideas, basically it makes the engine stronger and able to withstand more power

 

What model/engine do you have? LSJ, LNF, L61, LE5, LAP?

 

What engine / car?
Why do you want upgraded internals ?
Turbo build?
Tvs build?
Adding **** ton of nitrous?
Heard its cool?

 

haha

 

 

to start you'd want rods, pistons, crank shaft

 

lol I just don't know what parts will he doing what to the engine type thing and its a 09 Lt sedan 2.2l LAP

 

and just to build up my engine before any turbo comes in

 

He will be doing? So this isn't your car?

 

no this is my car I don't know what I even said up there sorry haha

 

when will I have to do a tune

 

what kind of pistons rods and crankshaft? I don't know what company is good on these parts or not

 

Zzp

 

any good site you guys would suggest?

There is a guy currently building a 2.2 LAP (same engine I have so I've been following it), I'm going to put on a turbo kit before building the engine though, buying one for a great price although I need to rebuild the EFR it comes with.

Here is the build thread I mentioned.

You don't need a crankshaft... lol, can't believe someone said that

 

i needed one when i rebuilt mine! but i also cracked it :/

 

You will have to take the block out and get the cylinders honed unless you have someone come do it for you.

Thats my thread!

BankerBalt helped me with my build

 

You need to think about what your power goals are and how much you're willing to spend. If you're going to just do bolt-ons the stock interals will be fine, if you're going to go supercharged depending on pulley size stock internals will be ok, same with a turbo depends on the air it moves and how much you want to push it. Either forced induction route will net you some significant downtime and tuning issues, if its your DD and you have to work 5days a week I wouldn't recommend it

 

well I don't really know how much power could come about with building the internals. so I'm trying to find information about everything so I could learn. I'll probably be having a friend helping with me along with everything too. I eventually want to put a turbo on it but have a strong engine as well if you get what I mean

and I'm trying to save up and by by he parts slowly until im ready for everything

 

what better for my car supercharger or turbo charger, its 09 2.2l LAP auto

 

Turbo it better for max power but you'll most likely blow the trans with either eventually since it's an auto. You'll have to invest in a built trans at some point, zzp sells them.

 

You're going to get no power addition with building the internals, just stronger.

Turbo'ing or supercharging the car can be done, but its going to take a lot of work, blood, sweat, and probably a few tears, or just a big pile of money

 

Don't. Waste of time and money, especially since it sounds like you really don't know what your looking for, or what you are doing. If you really want more power, buy a faster car.

Not trying to be a dick, just being honest with you.
