[All] [Turbo] standard power??

[keo_mr2turbo]

i have just bought a 1993 k reg gts turbo from japan what power standard should it be running???

[mattcambs]

revision 2, so about 220bhp at the fly wheel. Would be good going if a 14 year old car is still making that though.

[2Crooky]

Is a 93 k reg creeping into the rev 3 gen???? Can't remember Some 93 cars are rev 3.....

Rev 2 - 220bhp
Rev 3 - 241bhp

[Olly P]

Agreed. Sounds like a Rev2.

Most Rev2s put out between 190 and 210bhp.

K reg's are all rev2

1993 did produce rev3s but only for 2 months - so it's quite a small gap.

Even an L reg can still be a rev2 (3 month gap)

[2Crooky]

Agreed. Sounds like a Rev2.

Most Rev2s put out between 190 and 210bhp.

Are you talkin power at the hubs???? You won't lose 30bhp in 15 years unless the engine is kaput!!

yes but i bet thats a boost increase and bolt ons, lol..
what was it 200-210at the wheels?

[Munnsy]

oy mate lol
rev 2s are great motors, mine was dynod at 223 with only exhaust WITHOUT de-cat and filter,
The rev2s arnt as bad as people make out, better built

Better built??? In what way? Just want to be sure that buying my rev 3 was the right move

[merv89]

Come on now we all know rev 3 are for girls

[Munnsy]

What sort of power do you think i should make approx at 1 bar???

[keo_mr2turbo]

[alan mc]

If it doesn't have afm it's rev 3.

[keo_mr2turbo]

afm? is that air fuel meter? sorry new to the car and where will it be ?

[Turbo-G]

Aggghhh do a search, so many posts relating to identification of the different revisions... Rev 3's look prettier

Oh and has been said I'd be surprised to see a standard rev1/2 make 200hp (fly) today... Not saying they're bad cars or anything, its just what happens to engines in general over more than a decade of usage

[gerbil1028]

my k plate made 230 at fly i think .... a year ago with just a mongoose and k and n

[mrfil13]

Why are people talking as if the rev1/2's are ancient and the rev3's are much newer. There was only 4 years between the first rev1s and rev3s, unless the low rev's were more prone to loss of power over time its unfair to say a rev1/2 has lost 20 bhp over the years and a rev3 wouldnt have lost anything.
