Forged J32 Internals?

Are there any forged internals available for our CL-S? I'm looking into building my CL for pure numbers using FI. Since drag suspension components are at a minimum here, I'm leaning towards nitrous to avoid increased traction issues off the line. I'll leave the topic for any advice you all have.

What size shot could I safely and effectively run on the CL?
Dry or wet?

if you want to go big spray a progressive 150 wet shot. you'll run solid 12's if you can hook up.


what do you mean by nitrous not decreasing traction off the line? do you mean you wouldn't use it until you had traction. my auto w/ a 75 dry shot will spin the tires all the way from 1st to 3rd if you're too heavy w/ the throttle. i have run a best of 13.2 @105.7

Yes, I mean spraying once I'm into second.......how safe is a prog. 150? Also, what would you recommend if I had a CT blower running low boost? Thanks

How much power do you want to make and what are the final goals, ETs, etc.??

Shit, 10s .........In reality, I'd be happy with 12s, but I want to take the car as far as I can while still keeping it somewhat reliable. I already have a CT blower sitting in my basement (which I might or might not put on). At this point, I'm trying to figure out which route I'd like to take. If you guys could continue to help me out, I'd greatly appreciate it.

You won't run 10's on a stock motor... well, maybe once!

If you already have the blower you might as well get some use out of it. It can certainly be put to use to give you enough power to run 12's. That is with some additional items.

Like I mentioned before, what are the goals?? If it is just to run 12's in this car, nitrous is the best path. If it is to run 12's and have the greater power for everyday use, then the SC can get you there. You could also go with a custom turbo system for even more power.

As for reliability, although it isn't enough time to really tell, but I have had the blower on my 6MT for about 1.5 years and no problem so far. The additions which netted me 369 WHP (enough to run 12's if I can drive which is still questionable) have been on for about four months of daily driving and are working wonderfully even in the hot Atlanta summer.

It is enough power to roast the tires even when rolling on the throttle in 2nd. Well, maybe not on a 90+ degree day but on the verge.

I am also contemplating adding a 50 - 75 wet shot just for an occasional extra omph. Anyway, the options are there and getting back to the main point, to run 12's will not require internal work. Just the proper bolt on pieces and some decent driving.

Would there be any gains in taking the CT MP62 blower and having the internals ported, etc etc, similar to the GTP guys with the MP90?

And at what point would the tranny/axels be at major risk?

I don't think anyone on here has stressed them to the point of failure, even with close to 400whp. Only one person has had aftermarket clutch issues with slicks on their car. But when you play with slicks, your asking for trouble. Something has to give! I myself would rather have it be the tires spining

If you want 10's go buy a 02-04 SVT Cobra Mustang. This chassis won't get you there cheap.

If you have an automatic tranny I'd just bring the bible with you and pray everytime you hit that 150 shot Maybe have the local chruch bless it with some holy water.

It may but I don't think as much as the GTP guys. The L67 engine in the GTP uses the M90 of the previous generation blower. The MP62 is the Gen IV blower from Magnuson/Eaton which already has the S-Porting done to it.

I had gotten an S-Ported blower on the old GTP many years ago.

You will have to go custom only since there is nothing available for J32A2 same as any J-series engines.

Custom low CR forged pistons like JE are $150 each same as nice (Crower) connecting rods plus block preparation, assembly, installation, tuning. If you got the money JUST DO IT.
