Rb27/ Rb28 Vs Staying Rb26

[ibrox90]

Well thst was a can o worms

[Missileman]

not really, lots of good posts in this thread

[sneakey pete]

I learnt something. even if it was just that there's so many choices.

To throw another can of worms onto the fire: would 3K be better spent on a stroker, or on RB25 NEO VCT onto the 26 head?

[Piggaz]

Having been in a v cam 2.6, it would be about equal from 3500 ish compared to a 2.8. From the basement you can't hide cubes/stroke.

* very rough figures though.

There will be a comparison between the 2.6/v cam vs 2.8 using exactly the same turbo soon enough.

[ibrox90]

Or another idea . Stroker vs serious head work

[GTR_JOEY]

Stroker would win hands down..

Probably a bit less top end depending on how the cam gears are dialed in

[XGTRX]

Win at what? Dyno, drag race, circuit?

As an overall engine, more torque, drivability and response

No more please!!! ... You are torturing with all this boring shit... Zzzzzzzzz

The shit that comes out if your mouth is always a laugh so please continue

Oh hand bags are out again.

Joey and xgtrx are you lads ex's or what... can you stop hijacking the thread with your petty bullshit its boring

[GTR_JOEY]

Meh

[Nismo 3.2ish]

They are still talking about Stroker Vs 26, they just do not agree. Hit him with your hand bag Joey

I think Joey has been in enough different Rs to make an educated statement about strokers Vs 26, just do not get Piggaz started on strokers Vs 26 ​. Have a look at Piggaz car, stroker and a worked head.

From what I can work out , you like them or you don't , you like to rev them hard or you would rather have your car working earlier. It seems you can do this with both with the right mods, but I would imagine that with extra CCs a stroker has to be a little better.

Cutty, ask a few of these blokes if you can get a run in their cars. From my limited experience Dynos look impressive but until you drive them you do not get the full impact of how the car drives on the "street".

Cheers Pete,

Considering my first reply was a legitimate one, I can't help if people want to reply in that manner.

Anyway, I actually hate this expression but it does ring truth

"There's no replacement for displacement", seems these days more and more people are going stroker kits

[Piggaz]

For a bloke that has never driven a stroker, you know a lot about the advantages of them, how they drive, blah blah.

Farken 2.6L junk. Bin it.

It has nothing to do with peak power. How can having more low to mid range twist be considered a bad thing?

I am glad its was entertaining, it was meant to be.

A 28 is to a 30 what a 26 is to a 28

.... about...... Not rocket science is it. I have driven enough 30s in my time.

My LS2 had twist from idle and a found that as boring as shit, unless burnouts of course.

Mid range twist is for lazy c%&$ who want to brag about how fat their dyno sheets are so they don't have to change gears...... Suggestion...... Get an auto.

You guys are funny.

Can't wait for my TO4z setup to be on the road so I can thrash the f#@k out of it.

Can't wait for the lag.
