another good little powerplant is the Toyota 4AGZE.
This is the factory supercharged 1600cc out of the MR2. We ran one in our
Unlimited Class Offroader Buggy for several seasons with extremely pleasing
results. A very torquey engine which will happily rev to 8000 all day. The
buggy was dynoed at 180hp at the wheels, but with 400nm of torque.
(equivalent to a V8 ClubSport HSV Commodore)
These figures were without ANY internal modifications.
We ran it in stock configuration with only slightly larger blower pulleys to
increase boost. A very very strong little powerplant.
We sold the engine to a local to put into his street car..it lasted 3 weeks
before he pulled it out again..TOO much power for him..:-))
