Welcome to the most powerful 2l 20vt - 563bhp #1324839

Some of you may know that my head gasket went last year, so I was faced with a decision. Repair the head gasket, or build a fully forged engine and make the big bhp car I've always wanted.

Well, I went with the big bhp option!

Barbz and I had conversations at length about what setup I was going for, and decided we were going to try and build the most powerful 2l 20vt to date. After a lot of deliberation, I went with a rather large turbo to say the least. laugh Something most people would be afraid of even looking at as LAG springs to mind!

Not only that, but the pistons and rods were carefully chosen and the rest of the components to compliment the build. I must admit, it was pretty laggy before the car was mapped, but it didn't really bother me as I was always going for top end power, as that is what I enjoy.

Now, I've not driven the car yet, as I'm hopefully picking it up on Friday, but Flea said after mapping it spools surprisingly quick and he was very surprised by the results!

So it made 563bhp and 400lbsft at 8krpm.

But here's the thing - the power keeps climbing after this point, and Flea's dyno can only read up to 8krpm. So he effectively maxed out his dyno. laugh This means it will make even more power at the top end. Flea has yet to finish tweaking the map on the road, and will raise the rev limiter a bit more cool , so it will be interesting to see what power it's capable of after that. wink Oh, and this was made on 97 Octane Texaco fuel.

For now, that's all I can say as I've not driven the car yet. Flea will do a write up as well about his experience, but to say I'm over the moon with the results is an understatement.

Barbz, you know I love you man, and I must say a massive thanks to Flea for actually listening to my requests of pushing certain elements of the car to where I was happy with it. If you want one of the quickest coupes around, only talk to these two guys.

Here is a short spec list.
- Precision Turbo 6262 with .82ar
- Precision Turbo 46mm external wastegate
- JE Racing super light custom forged pistons specced by Barbz
- Custom 3.5mm exhaust all the way from turbo back
- Helix 6 paddle clutch
- Torque Italia stage 4 head
- Aquamist DDS3 system
- Bosch 044 inline fuel pump with 2.5l surge tank with teflon fuel lines

Indeed, that turbo loves the boost! It's running around 2bar give or take. laugh

Wowzers, 3.5mm?!? It's a wonder the back pressure doesn't blow the block out from under the bonnet wink

I hope this beast will see some track time this year to truly see it's potential first hand? Spa?

Oops, haha. That's meant to be 3.5"!

Sadly no track days for the car. Maybe in the future. I want to enjoy it first before breaking it on the track.

Brilliant Pero,this is proof that the 2.0 certainly can get the power if pushed.
If we were brave enough like the Vag and jap lads to push the limiter to 8500 and maybe 2.5 bar laugh then this would do 600bhp without any issues.

Fantastic achievement to all involved

This will be one hell of a 1/4 mile car.

Now lets get to Santa pod and put down some good times.

Well done to all involved, it seems like headwork is definately a big part in big power.

its quite interesting to see the comparative differences between yours and JBT (the CC's, the torque figures, and the rev range etc)

Autobahns? You can't enjoy it at 70mph tongue With the power on boost at the top of 3rd and 4th and it will be pushing light speed.

Take it to Spa, and have the fun of your life upsetting the Fezzas and Lambos. Let Mayzon drive it there, the film would be something else smile I can hear it now "F*****g 'ave it, hahahahahahahahaha"

Epic job from all involved bow
