Anything is possible. (well almost)

 

Toms turbokit would be a viable option.... You can ask the price from the tom's shop in kilton motors. You're from makati or not? Its on the other side of pasong tamo if you're coming from ayala center. Easy way to get there is to go in Sen Gil Puyat avenue and then turn left after pasong tamo, before you go under the skyway.

This was though 4 years ago

 

Depends on how much time and money you feel like spending, 4afe parts are either hard to come by or just not made so you have to custom fab them up.

 

Toms turbokit is a bolt on for AE101-111 series with 4A-FE... gives 160hp.

 

Jesus!... Thats 20v power rating... But with MORE TORQUE!

 

20V doesnt have 160hp in real life...

Besides turbocharging always opens up new doors for tuning, compared to n/a tuning.

 

yeah it has more like 145 isn't it? but besides that...

just 2 different ways to go about being fast... Forced induction or N/A. Personal perferance if you ask me lol

 

where can i find a toms turbo kit

 

Dunno about you, search on google.. maybe japan...

 

sounds pretty good... how much would one cost?

seems like the only way is the former..... it would be almost impossible to build a high-performance naturally aspirated 4A/7A-FE.

 

nah, its not impossible.
Expensive yes, but not impossible.

People build high-performance 4age n.a engines, So doing a 4af, 4afe, 7afe motor shouldnt look all that bad. people just hear the f and fe head and assume its usless... its not

 

Unless you are really keen on keeping the original engine in the car, it would make more sense to start out with an engine that has more potential for easier power gains, say for instance, a 4AGE 20V or 3SGE which has more aftermarket support.

I have yet to see someone with a highly tuned 4A/7AFE.

 

t would be almost impossible to build a high-performance naturally aspirated 4A/7A-FE.

LOL thats really a bunch of crap.

4A-GE 20V has little aftermarket support anywhere except UK and Japan and few countries with RHD. As for potential, its there, but people are too blind to see it, because they just concentrate on the common modifications.
Quoted from billzillas site:

To back up the estimated power figures of the 4AFE, here's an example. As fate would have it, a friend of mine overseas has built an engine almost identical to what I will be building. It's in an off-road buggy and on an engine dyno it has made 248hp at 9,000rpm.

Thats NA tuning for you doubters. And as far as I know, thats with the 1st gen head.

Check the Philippines.. I keep seing a lot of goodies stacked away in their warehouses.

 

LOL thats really a bunch of crap.

LOL that's an off-road buggy, not even a car. Hardly comparable to say the least.

Until I see some actual pics and some dynojet plots of such a setup, I will continue to doubt the power potential of the 4A/7AFE. With that said, however, I really do hope you, or someone else here on TN does prove me wrong.

Doesnt matter what it is in, the engine is always a separate unit from the car, therefor even though the engine is in an offroad buggy, you could basically put it into a car.

 

Flashmn... could I ask what the specs are for the engine you are building?

 

ser, Stock racing nalang...


Internally the engine is stock... Otherwise its just a "bolt-on" turbokit.

 

It's very possible. You can go N/A - high compression, port the living crap out of the head, free up the intake, header and exhaust should net close to 150chp.

Or you can get an f style head turbo manifold, fit a turbo with the correct exhaust flange, bolt it on, run your downpipe, run your oil lines, run your intercooler piping, upgrade your injectors, and get a tune from a standalone unit, atleast a piggy back.

N/A power is very responsive, and also very expensive
Boost power is fun, much cheaper, and theres nothing like a turbo spool followed by the wastegate opening - bov sound
