Dave.

The old engine the 7mge only had about 195Hp and 187TQ.
The doner was an 1994 Toyota/Lexus Aristo it has 280HP and 318TQ because it was a Japanese engine and the gentalmens agreement said no car with over that at the time. Thank you for the help.

Ok here's how this will work, I'm going to look for simular cars with the HP/Weight rratio with your new motor and factor a new base class for your car then we'll ad any other mod points to that.

Thats a big gain! Looking at options and for opinions, don't know the imports that well but that kind of gain is = to a supercharger on a NA engine with ~ 10#s of boost.

Or if you look at enough engine mods to gain that much hp and torque you get about 25 mod points I say up his base class 1.5 classes then ad the rest of the mods.

Did the car start as a Supra TT?
To come up with enough engine mods to get that level of power I'm seeing +25 poins~. That would move you up 1.5 classes then ad the rest of your mods.[/quote]

The car that the motor is in start N/A. The doner car the Aristo TT which is pretty much the same as the Supra TT with liittle diffrences such as smaller cams and smaller injectors. Could I just run in the SupraTT's bass class and then add my mods? Unless I'd be running lower than B class it really won't matter.[/QUOTE]



The very reson I asked is that if you started N/A
and added that engine it brings you to C+10 wich is were the TT starts, thats 1.5 classes up from your origional base.:thumbup:






We will make it so, engage!:lol:
