--- can a rev2 see 300bhp? ---

[tom89uk]

just wondering what a rev2 can see without major changes ? i know the airflow meter can restrict the higher end bhp results or is that false ?

wondering who has rev2's and what they achieved and how

You'll do well do get a reply, plenty info already about this, can of worms to be honest.

Do a search
The rev 1 -2 have stronger blocks
You need rev3 loom sensors ecu to get rid of afm
And then rev 3 head and cams etc

I've got a rr printout of 302bhp and a vid of it hitting 298bhp on a stock rev2 engine with ct20 turbo and de-cat exhaust running 1.1 bar.

Is this accurate? Doubt it but it was still a quick car if that's what you want.

is that at the flywheel?? if so, sounds about right

[stephano]

yeah sorry at the flywheel

The rev 1 -2 have stronger blocks

Depends on what part of the block you're talking about. Around the water pump they're the weakest and we won't touch them for race car builds.

sounds fine then mate

However I have my doubts on those figures since my RX7 pushed 302fwhp at EuroSpec 'The heartbreaker' and its hella quicker than the MR2

i always thought my old rev2 was around the 280-290 mark, until i got my rev 3, runs 18psi with all breathing mods on a blitz ecu, it's a completely different animal to the rev2. feels like it constantly wants to kill you!

340+ for well over a year.
487bhp peak.

Aftermarket ECU, massive turbo, big injectors, massive intercooler.

Fair few different ways to reach 300bhp.

MHG , hybrid, decat and exhaust, better intercooling and i got 299.1 bhp

Its possible.

But needs to be a healthy engine.

you can get over 9000 HP for about 1.4 seconds. But in other news, search function is your friend
