i wanna see double factory power
is 400hp not enough?
I was thinking about some cams when i had my belts done but decided against it, mates going to tweek the map soon to get my torque back up, should be plenty enough then tbh, already abit mental for every day use.
No massive power. To expensive to tune, if i require a new engine at some point i'll definately go for a 2.4litre or something.

hmm, 400 isn't enought for one of ur toys no we all know u'll be twin turboin it or something in a year when u won't more bhp lol or gettin a 2.4 and usin the engine u have now for a sleeper lol
if he goes 2.4 chances are he will use excisting engine with a 2.4 stroker kit
690hp???
Evos cost enough to run as it is, Evo tuning is on another planet, its serious money. Evo taxation on parts etc...
Be happy if i could get my torque upto 380-400ibft, maybe creep the power over 400 to say 420. After that pistons things will start to break which i really dont want!
yeah i think we had this convo before about bottom end not taking much over 400
Mates been running 480hp on stock MR Bottom end, GSC1 cams and a BBK Full turbo for a year and been fine, but it has worn two pistons out now. Not bd for a stock 2litre..
Over 400hp, Simon Norris will have you believe you need to pay him a grand for a 'rod job' but in actual fact there are very few rod failures (probably because most of coughed up with all the scare mongering) its pistons that are the first week point.
Imagine a standard GT headgasket taking 300hp, thats the kind of reliability the standard 4G63 gives.
Yeah thats what we spoke about before, throwing rods. like i said there is a guy running 460hp on a stock internal sr20det and that's his BDC car
nice like that alot especial when it would not start haha
my old evo VIII MRFQ 340 used to run 480bhp on standard pistons with no problem the only problem i did run into waas the thirst almost doubled but it was great fun till she had to go
