Thread: Who's going for big power with the VE this year?

Why not? It's all about money, BTCC non-VVL cars regularly cranked out 300bhp.

Exact-emundo!!!

The fact that this was tested on an engine-dyno, not your average run-of-the-mill chassis dyno, could be a hint as well.

Exactly ,that about 270-275 whp.I don't think that possible but like you said anything possible for 20k in engine work I guess .

If Bazza1600 says the engine exists then it does... his company specialises in high HP NA SR20s & they've built a ton of them including many modded VEs. I know that over the last year he's gone off in a different direction with modding the VE engine & has, in conjuction with a race engine developer, been working on some pretty radical ****... too much money & time for Joe Average to even consider but these are full-on race engines we're talking about here, not street motors. Barry owns 2 genuine N1 Pulsars, one of which is a fully caged track weapon.

I hope my B14 LSD transmission holds up

sounds nice, hopefully you can see 220s no proble with this set up.

Well, the tranny won't last. But keep us all posted on your build. VE-T powah!
