hughes412

VagaBond-X

wow dude, if your NON drive wheels are making ~180whp

imagine how much ure actual DRIVE wheels are making

lol just joking with you man, you do mean fwhp (or just whp) don't you??

and yeah man those are awesome numbers

DonSVO

BAH! i was in a hurry to get out the door. theres a certain vagina with my name written on it in hersheys syrup... i had to clean it with my tongue. time was of the essence!

but i digress: i am a Mustang guy in my heart, so yes i fudged in my hustle and put down whp. awww. thanks for the props guys.

Has anyone got those #s out of a NA 2.0? That would be smoken!

VagaBond-X

well the world challenge proteges get 240bhp (not whp) and they are NA, but they last like nothing, i think they went through like 3 engines a season or something along those lines, also they cost like 20 grand for just the engine

Stueck

but the WC proteges run hard at all times? isnt the 2.0L a 130whp?

VagaBond-X

130bhp (not whp)

at whp its about ~100whp

even though they do run hard at all times.... other cars in the same class go through 1 while the wc proteges go through 3 engines....

again our ford mercury guy amazes us. rear motor mount 4 hours, =gets fired cant do it.
go to the dyno=more hp than can possibly happen in our 2.0s even supercharged. hey don are you sure you didnt take the motor out and measure it on a dyno?

hughes412

Is there anyone here that can give me a for sure reason why it is so hard to make good hp and make it reliable? Has anyone ported and polished, 3 angle valves, bored stroked? In V8s this makes big HP, why not in the mazdas? Is there aftermarket intakes?

Roddimus Prime

Very good numbers. I guess my estimates were right on Don.

DonSVO

the car was dynoed at Alamo Autosports where i now work making $8 more an hour than i did at the dealership.

also, we have full fabricating capabilities, the owner is well-versed in many different tuning hardwares, and i can work on my car whenever i please. since iON wants close to $700 for their S-pipe without exhuast, Brice (owner) and i are going to make one. if it goes well, perhaps we might sell the pieces on the board for less than iON charges!

i got both the front and rear mount in in just under 5 hours. not too damn bad for a shitty lincoln mercury mechanic.

if you have any doubts, i am sure i can mail you a framed copy of all 4 dyno runs.
