okay so I've been doing some reading on the atlantic engine....so its got 240 HP right...is that naturally aspirated? I think it is...I never see turbos or SC mentioned.

and can you buy them? how much would they be, where would you get them?
I saw on ToySport that they give you a list of all these parts that are availible through them from TRD....that are apparently in the atlantic engine.....http://www.toysport.com/New Products/Atlantic.htm

so am I right in thinking that If I buy all these parts install them on my engine that I'll get 240 hp.....it dosnt seem right so Im gonna say no.

let me know what you guys think.

Yea, exactly. I wouldn't mind tearing it apart every month or so to keep it running. It need much more attention cause its reving at 11000rpm. All parts gotta be clean and balanced. You can get to be streetable but you won't get 240HP. With an aftermarket programmable ECU with 2 profiles, you can drive it daily and run it on the track.
Here is the part list from ToySport:

You'll need to rebuild it offten if you keep it at 10k all day long which I don't think you could do that on the street and really hope you don't do it on the street

No room if Toyota can ONLY get it up to 240HP.
You can FI it for more but not NA.

Throttle Body Injection I believe. Or he means ITB, so its hard to FI.
Yea, don't FI the Atlantic engine. Just keep it reving high.

Cool. I'll believe it when I see it

No offence, just hard to believe any shop could do a better job then Toyota. Getting more HP from a stock engine is one thing, getting even more from a race engine is another.
Is there a power restriction with Formula Atlantic? IF so , that'll why it ONLY got 240HP.
300HP from a 1.6L is monster
