that puts his number at more like 125-150hp. :o :D Which compares well with a 4EFTE at 130bhp stock or a G13B at 100bhp stock - both at the flywheel. Something to think about for those considering conversions. To my mind, numbers like that mean a conversion only really makes sense if you're after a 5 speed gearbox. :? Or absolutely insane, impossible to control power - go for it if that's what you're after! :D 8)


First Question - What would Jai charge someone to build a complete motor to this spec. It'd be pretty exxy to get that kind of power.

Second Question - Lets see how long it lasts - and i'm not saying it wont last - i am saying it wont last as long as the 4EFTE.

I'm all for high powered A-series - but conversions are for those who want the power - and want it to last as a daily driver for years to come.

...and for those who want insane impossible to control power as well ;)
