2ltrs cant make the power cause they cant hold the rpm with any decent sort of day to day reliability.
Optimise the engine and you can make alot more power, but nobody really wants to splash out on a bottom end that isnt full of manufacturing compramises.
Doesnt even have to be that...
Fabricated inlet manifold, 4-2-1 long primary design header, big valve head, medium duration high torque cams, forged pistons and steel rods, 12.5:1 CR........nothing too special, just a strong 2ltr which can hold some decent rpm and hit 200-220bhp and loads of torque.
Price?
a lil bit.
You can use the dastek stuff, its not too complex.
Make sure you buy a wideband lambda setup though!
Look for a megane F7R 710/714 engine out of the cabrio/coupe's.
Still here! lol
Nice work, lots of effort and its very clean when you finished!
The F7 engine will plonk in fine, the F4 will aswell but with abit more effort and electrical gremlins will drive you crazy unless you buy the complete loom, key, plip, UCH, barrel etc etc.
I personally...
i have a buzzing noise in the glovebox aswell, cant isolate it.....its electrical.......and the most annoying thing in the world. Only over 4000rpm though...weird.
