Modding a std head
Turbo Mini Forums

I cant be bovered forking out £100+ on a turbo head so im thinking of making one up when i heard it was the same casting. What do i need to do? Is it the upgraded valve guides on jst the exhaust or intake also? And what valves do i need or best getting?

Back once again like a renegade master

My head is just an N/A head, worked fine as it was. It Did have uprated valves. Its a good idea to get the chambers inlarged to help keep the compression ration down though.

There are many veiws on whether there is a need to use sodium filled valves or not, but many people use NON-sodium filled valves for sure.

TBH im not to clued up on how good the standard N/A valves are though!

I have gone from the standard sodium filled exhaust valves to stainless rimflows with no problems. But again not sure how good standard non turbo valves are!

Do a search on heads and possibly sodium. You'll find what you need.
