I am going to pull my engine this week after an embarassing weekend at sears point. Too little horsepower. Can't even keep up with the 944's. I hope to build up my 2.0L into something pretty strong, probably in the 140hp range. I will be keeping the stock FI if I can, but if I can sell the stock FI, maybe I go carbs?

Where should I start? What should I get? I do have a budget, so I want to keep the costs somewhat moderate. Help me out. Thanks! Terrance (IMG:style_emoticons/default/MDB2.gif) |

Are you trying to keep in the 2.0L displacement, or can you go to 2056 ccs and larger?
A lot depends on the organization you race in, the class you want to limit yourself to... blah blah. You know the story. If you want to stick with the stock FI, then you are going to probably stay with your d-jet cam which has a good power band but is limited in power output. You can safely go to 2056 with D-jet and your cam, but you're not going to get 140 HP. A lot of your power is going to come from good head work, carbs, cam change, and exhaust. Questions... 1. What's your budget 2. What's your displacement restrictions 3. Street, track, or both 4. What do you want to keep on your engine and what are you willing to change/let go. This may help get you some better feedback. |
