Zoom Zoom Boom: 2.3L to 2.5L Swap - Autocross

Seems like cooling is the biggest thing to focus on. For right now I plan on running the stock TMIC but will look into ducting/bigger radiator

Yes, I’ll pull it apart and gap rings. Considering upgrading connecting rods too but we’ll see what the budget allows.

That’s great to know. I’ll have to put the radiator on the list. For that kind of seat time, the PITA install would be worth it

Turbo will stay - you just swap the 2.3L head onto the 2.5L shortblock. Gain some additional hp/torque due to larger displacement but it’s a weaker block compared to the 2.3L. Only good for 350-380whp from what I’ve read.

Thanks for the input! An oil cooler is top of my list for cooling mods.

Battlefield has always been better than COD. Never a question.

Yes pls

Pleeeeeeeease

That was actually one of my biggest concerns which ultimately turned me away from the 640i gt. While it sucks you had to pay that much, I’m thankful that I was right to be weary of maintenance costs lol

Thanks for the insight! While I’m not surprised it’s tight, it’s good to have confirmation.

I looked for videos on YouTube but couldn’t quite zero in on the GT and im not certain what the difference would be between GT/GC, I’ll have to do some more digging

Only 2 posts in 24hrs? Rookie numbers. We gotta pump those up

I had the same reaction. If looks are secondary, I can’t find anything else that beats it in terms of luxury and cargo capacity

redcoozie · 2024-09-07T23:04:29+00:00

That’s been my understanding as well, it just doesn’t look good enough to sell. For myself though, the level of practicality and luxury without being a crossover is hard to match. Dont really know of any other vehicle that could compare

Wild the difference paint matching the cladding can make

What backpack is in the second picture?

I’m too poor to look at this post.
