GaryD is right, the VE motors are much better than their DE counterparts. The Tomei crank is used to give higher rpm, increased torque + capacity over the DE/VE items. I used DET rods which can safely support 400Hp because I did not have any DE rods that were straight ;)
Basically the rest of the motor is only mildly modified. Would a K20A make the sort of power my SR is making with a 2124cc bottom end, increased compression and camshafts?
As spetz said in post #94, the SR16VE makes 147Kw@fly from the factory. With compression, capacity, revs and cams improved upon, the power potential is there!
I can definitely drive and I already have a video of a 0~200Km/h run(on 18's + street tyres) along a local 'private road' that would put EGK20A to shame.
