What sort of power from 2.0?

[donsrno1]

If you were to use a 2.0 bottom end with a valver head and you got some headwork (not changing valve size or anything though), cams and a remap (would it be necessary or could it still run on standard map?) what sort of power would be you be looking at?

Also how much benefit is the to be had from blancing the crank and flywheel and what sort of cost would be involved in that?

Just considering my options at the minute and am considering buying a valver then over the winter get myself an engine which I would rebuild and drop in it next year sometime.

Thanks.

Imho if your going to get the head gasflowed you may as well fit some meaner cams at the same time.... will see more of a benefit than just porting the head.

should be around 170+ bhp with that setup at a guess.

I'm on F7P full engine with the following mods:

Cams
Polished and Ported Head
KnN
De Cat
Full Stainless
Lightened Fly Wheel
Custom Map
The engine was fully rebuilt about 10K ago.

Mine made 174.2 @ the fly on the RR about 6 weeks ago.

Would have thought it wold be slightly more on the 2ltr bottom end but not huge ammount.

You'd need a good re map to get the most from the mods, especially the cams.

cheers, didn't realise you would get that much from an F7P with those mods!! I know a remap would be the right thing to do, especially if I was spenging a fair chunk on the rest of the work, but just wanted to make sure it would all run ok off the standard map as depending on money I would possibly do that for a while. What sort ofo price would I be looking at for a decent remap? also, iirc, does gunner not do some sort of chip for teh f7r (though I think it may just be for a standard F7R)? What sort of price would you be looking at for a remap to make the most of any changed made to the engine?

I paid just short of 300 for mine.

I think Gunners chip just lifts the rev limiter.
My chip was mapped by my very knowledgeable friend then fine tuned at Chipwizards.

I was surprised buy the figures as I expected around 160, but I think its all about getting the cams timed properly etc.

yeah seems like a lot of its to do with getting the cams timed properly, and someone who can actually create a decent map for the car.

look at how the nana responded to a little headwork, cams timed in properly and a decent remap!

[nyk]

plus a good strong engine to build on makes a lot of difference.

[J o n]

would say 190+ with those mods on a good strong 2.0 BE.

[nyk]

yeah I'd have thought so. Mines having the 2ltr BE when the 1800 goes.

Done it on the track car already.
