Homer Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 How much are you aimning to gain? If it's a few HP (10-20) then there are some options. If it's more then you have either NOS (worthless IMO), or an engine swap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 one of nicks exhaust manifolds remove both cats a decent exhaust an apexi filter sheilded and cold airflow kit that should give approx 20bhp but that will cost you about a grand .save up another 2.5k and get jezz to drop a tt lump in it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazboy Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 How long is a piece of string? It's still a 3.0 straight six afterall so it's not untunable, if you can get 225 out of a Vauxhall red top then you can also get gains on a 2zge but you'll have to pay normal prices (this forum is spoilt by how cheap a gte is to tune). All the above plus some naughty cams, a Motec and a raised rev limit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 I just dont get why someone would buy a N/A if you care about BHP. I got an N/A because im a cheap skate and would probably hurt myself in a TT I love my BHP challanged supra. ok.....now to save that 3k for jezz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the above plus some naughty cams, a Motec and a raised rev limit. Very true As has been said, it wont be cheap. 100bhp per litre is not out of reach but it will cost a fair amount ! Incidentally, we had a Toyota Levin on the dyno this week. It has the 4AGE engine with the vvti - made spot on 160bhp out of its 1600cc engine, I was reasonably impressed !

Muffleman Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 I have to say, part of me is seriously tempted to try this. An NA as a track car, totally stripped. Then rebuild the engine with the goal of reducing rotational mass. Some serious headwork, throttle bodies, cams etc and then remap with a raised rev limit. Okay it's hardly cost effective, but since when has being a petrolhead been cost effective Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazboy Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 300bhp ought to be a piece of piss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jassi_hayre Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Would it be possible to increase the compression any further e.g. to 13:1? Just read an article on the civic type r before reading this thread which said the engine compression ratio on that was 12:1 What would be involved in doing this and what would be the likely cost?

Gazboy Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 That's a mighty high cr. You'd probably spend about £8k every six thousand miles rebuilding the thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
