I was wondering what the safest amount is to bore a G180 to. With the idea of adding a turbo later.

Thanks

glad i could help!!! Very Happy

depends what u wanna do. once u start boring then your gonna make the block walls thinner, AS SOON as u do that your letting the engine heat up quicker, the more u bore the faster and higher the engin will heat up.

personaly i wouldnt bore it if your gonna turbo

I heard a G200z was basiclly a bored out G180?!?

What would constitute a 'good' cooling system.
