There is a possibility my crank is a dud so i started looking at stroker kits with replacement cranks.
What are the pros vs cons with a stroker in a forced induction motor?
This is me taking a guess,
Pro:
flows more air - less lag, better spool.
More torque for when the turbo isn't in boost.
Able to support high HP numbers
Less machine shop costs as the crank wouldn't need machining, the rods wouldn't need bushing
Lighter?
Cons:
Expense
Maybe not rev as high but would it still rev to factory red line?
Please add to these pros and cons and correct me if my assumptions are wrong.
If i can stretch to a stroker is it worth doing?
Thanks.
