My bro old SGTi with maddies cam easily fend off stock, and APR GTI, and that's without fine tune... But never got dyno to proof..
And since 18x whp from 1.6 NA is not drivable, how about FD2R?
I personally don't think the GTI is anything great, IMHO... Its a good and nice driving sport hatch and enormous low end torque, but no... Not on true sports...
And maybe I kena too much poison from that SGTi maddie's suspension tuning, that can throw 160km/h at kuchai corner.
P/S: Ok, ignore me if feeling I am bull-crapping... (Kcng please spare me from saying that, just IMHO)
FD2R is 2.0L la bro............... and its on a different level....
some more with strengthened internals, with proper cam lifts on intake and exhaust RnD properly by engineers...
and yet still meet euro 4 or euro 5 emission standard....
imagine if FD2R only have euro 2 or euro 3 standard to meet, silap silap 250 HP N/A engine or maybe even more, knowing honda engineers...

madman,
I don't think you can test the compression ratio with simply a pressure/compression gauge.
Hint to the troll who knows how to Google,
First, visit maddriver or Google to check what is the unit of the reading you get from such a gauge. Then try to figure out what is the unit of a engine compression ratio.
From pissed off kampung boy.

kambing..... like i said earlier, GENERALLY speaking, the billet cam will have more lift than the regrinds, but in SPECIAL cases, the regrind has more useable power...... kc...... where are u?
i swear to some one up there, mention this one more time, i am gonna skim my rotors with your head

Hmmm... I thought since SOHC so its still better at that point (stand to be corrected)
That's surely some work to do
Forgot about that point... The K20A indeed different... But never mind, I am waiting to hear banshee howls again...
P/S: A weird question that pops from my mind... Why is the Fortuner using such big 2.7 petrol engine with such low power and torque? HAHAHAHA.... SOHC...
HAHAAHAH
sorry this SOHC just bring back memories....
recent toyota's are all geared towards responsiveness and fuel economy as their top priority....
take a look at the altis 2.0 dual-vvti...
140++ PS only... poor for a 2.0 dual-vvti tech engine.. but its low end response is superb...
and since the response is superb, it "feels" more powerful then it actually is...
and taking into consideration the target segment of this car, do u really think those uncle or aunties will ever touch 4 or 5k rpm on their tacho?

u try to whack an altis up to rev cut... chances are (and its a very very high chance) that the mid to top end is empty....
same like the Mazda 3 2.0...
very under-powered for its superb chassis...
in town, the response is superb, but once u get an empty highway, the top end power is lacking, badly actually...
