You're living in a fantasy world if you think a 200 HP car is going to make 1000+ HP with a few modifications. The people doing this have a factory engine block and that is it.
- Tanoc 3y agoThey can, very easily. Nissan's L28, Toyota's 1JZ and 2JZ, and Ford's own modular 4.6 are all well known for such raucous stupidity. If you really want to you can even make GM's Quad 4 push 900HP, as evidenced in the Oldsmobile Aerotech. Boost pressure can make a ton of difference.
- anonym29 3y agoHow did you translate "replace a bunch of internals" to "with a few modifications"? The guys doing "a few mods" are not the same guys "replacing a bunch of internals". Besides, I wasn't really talking about a typical family car, but rather a handful of platforms like stuff with LS-family, Coyote blocks, R35's, Mk4 Supras, etc. There's variability even between those, but a gen 2 coyote motor will easily take 900+ crank on the stock internals, just need to swap oil pump gear and crank sprocket gear and something to make that power (turbos/supercharger/nitrous/etc). Swap some lower rotating assembly stuff and you're well into the 1XXX range with sufficient boost. Also, some of the people I'm thinking of are most certainly NOT usng factory engine blocks, but rather aftermarket blocks. Factory blocks are mostly cast aluminum trash, with a few exceptions.
