Scored me a Toyota Turbo 4cyl for $200! Complete engine, harness, computer and radiator.
It's nothing to great in the HP dept. but will be a good improvement over my stock 115ish now.
For comparisions sake:
22RE stock, 116 hp @4800 and 140 torque @ 2800
22RTE stock, 135 hp @ 4800 and 173 torque @2800
That extra grunt should be noticable trying to spin 37's down the road and make it a lot more fun to drive.
With a tons of extra green and stupidity, some are putting 200+ HP and 230+ TQ qith this motor. Not a chance here ;D
Plans are to go through it with some new gaskets, etc. over the summer and install it next winter so I can wheel all summer w/out the downtime and it'll be easier to string out the cost over the next 8 months. Should be able to offset the costs by selling my 35K rebuilt stocker as well.
