New Mitsu crank. I suppose calling it a Hyundai crank would scare away most of the would-be builders.

Justin- I agree everything has bottlenecks, but if I were going to go through the trouble of a smaller displacement motor to make up for it in rev's, I would have to go to 9500rpm + and I would want a serious power band up there. The headwork/turbowork/transmission required is beyond the budget of 99.99% of the dsmer's. IMHO its just not worth it to do it "right". Unless you have some no holds bar setup, it isn't worth wasting the cash.
What are you considering "high horsepower"? Just because you want a powerband like that doesn't mean others do. You are just a theorist too, Swanny.

I agree that you have to make the engine work in the car. I know of someone else looking at making big HP in a car that is notorious for killing drivetrains. Pot, meet kettle.

The price would too. Since you can get a 2.3L stroker kit w/ crank for $1300.

I meant rpm, not horsepower. The dsm's just seem to "drop off" around 8k compared to other cars that have powerbands that keep climbing. For the record, I consider big power 700+hp.


I am a theorist, that is true. Everyone in this industry is. In defense of being a kettle... I am however making a go of my "drivetrain killing monster" to disprove theories. Everything in the world will shit out drivetrain when you try to double or triple the factory setup. Weak drivetrain? I have transfer case issues, and those are currently being resolved (or so we hope). The prototype transfercase come back this summer.
I was just saying, that I wouldn't do that setup. After weighing all the pro's and con's, it isn't worth it IMHO. Just my professional opinion on this subject, take it or leave it. But maybe I've never researched it??
:confused: ;) :)

Not doing a high RPM makes much more sense than the HP comment. I was just wondering where you were coming from.

Re: 2.3L vs 2.4L
 
Kinda off topic, but I ran into this guy today in the parking lot at my school. He drove a 2G GS Spyder and I asked him about it. He said he was going to throw a turbo on it eventually. I told him it would be a waste on a GS and he said "No. they come with 2.4's." Hmm...I could've sworn that GS's dont come with 2.4 litre engines, right? But he believes that they do...kinda weird, eh?

GS Spyder has a 2.4L.

The moon man!
Naw, I was just out of it when I posted. I totally ment high rpm.

The 2g 4g64s also suffer the possibility of walking!?
