185bhp hybrid with no internal engine mods?

Is 185bhp with just exhaust, decat, filter, possible on an otherwise standard 2 litre hybrid lump?

Chap on another forum reckons his mate has one but I can't see how for some reason!

sorry I said hybrid but didn't actually say any more, oops :(

mk1 16v hybrid, so I guess that's a 1.8 btm end with a willy/megane head?

Toms16v made somehwere round that twice i think. It may have cams though. No one can remember and no one has checked.

HE had cams and remapped I'm sure.

Thats sort of paower might be made with remap and cams or a very good rebuilt engine but unliky.

Its now frenchy's ( Andy's) and yup, its made 185bhp on a few occasions with just breathing mods, has the 1/4 times to prove it aswell! Seems a bit of a freak lump, lol

must have a set of cams in there for that, if it's the only "standard" lump to ever make that figure :p

Although looking at the mods (which were a bit more than decat and filter) I can see why it's a quick machine, just find 185bhp a bit on the high side, but as you guys say maybe it's just a goodun'.

Hey guys, yep my old one (now andys) has made 185 bhp on 3 different sets of rollers now with pretty much just breathing mods. It hasnt been remapped but does have a hillpower chip.

Andy's ran a 14.1 in it too so shows its a "true" fugure. :)

It does seem a bit of a freak though!

yeah i didn't realise it'd been chipped plus the SS manifold on it which will help a lot, I was under the impression it was literally just a decat and filter :p

No its not a nick hill engine. Steve A did the conversion and he bought it off Paul.C 16v. Its never had any work to anyones knowledge. :)
