220 HP, better get youre hand already in your pockets, because it wil cost ya!

if your planning to get those numbers with a 20V, your looking at a good chunk of money, i know getting past 200 hp on a 20V gets very expensive (not that getting to 200 is cheap...). your looking at pretty lumpy cams, higher compression pistons, headwork, gooood management, open throttles, yadda yadda. plus itll blow for street driving if your planning to keep it legal. my suggestion is if your serious, what about a 3sge beams blacktop w/ 6speed. the engines more expensive, and teh swap is more difficult, but itll be easier to reach your goal, and the extra 0.4L of displacement wont hurt at the track.

oh ok kewl...so what HP do u think it will be good for daily driving

[EverAE]

it all depends on your set up really, if you have really lumpy cams with alot of duration your gonna have all your power up to, and a bumpy idle. a TRD headgasket to bump the compression up, a good set of cams (research on what specs would suit your needs), open throttles, nice exhaust (possibly header), and something to manage it would make a fun and quick street car..

20V 4AGs in stock form are already peaky in nature. Big cams with proper timing and ECU map to match, will render the vehicle useless on the street. This applies to heavily modified 16Vs and 20Vs.


"oh ok kewl...so what HP do u think it will be good for daily driving"

having 100, 150, or 200 HP makes no difference on the street if the engine has no torque. If you build a 220WHP 4AG, are you going to rev it to 9k rpm+ every gear? Not exactly practical in terms of daily driving.

A stock 20V has ITBs, performance equivalent to a mild modified 16V, with dependable reliability. If you have a bigger budget with access to fabrication equipment, larger displacement engines such as the 3SGE, SR20, or even F20/22C becomes an option.
