Topic #76914 6 posts Started by SanFlip
Ok so i am new the 6GC but this place is way better than others. ive been told to boost the 5sfe the head isnt to good for it. is there a head that would swap right on? and what internals would i have to build.
the 5s is a good platform for good boosting the head desing makes it more torquey but with a G head you get more hp look for pressure 2's 5sfTe thread it has all you need


replace the composite gasket with a metal one. bitch can hold allot of PSI if built correctly.

You can put a 3sgte head on there with slight modifications to the block.

no its not the head, its the longer stroke of the 5S that makes it torquey. The G sries head flows better making it an improvement. there are quite a few boosted 5S-FE's on here, im one of them. I make a turbo kit for the 5S-FE too. look at the threads for turboing the 7A-FE i made. the 5S kit is the same for the most part
