I am hoping this will make some decent power could anyone give me there thoughts on a hp rating.
 
I knew we were gonna see a 1.8 that can kick some ass sometime. It's also good to see someone putting so much effort into a non-turbo. It's hard to say how much power that would make, but it should be pretty quick. It would be great to see the looks on people's face after you beat them with a 1.8, LOL. I love it!!!
 
My car is not put back together yet so i dont know the 1/4 times. I dont know what else i can do to it if anyone has any ideas tell me.
Thanks
 
The best way to do a build up like this is to know a lot about cars or have a good mech that likes to do things for you. I got almost all of my parts off ebay and that saved a ton of money. As for a total price im not sure what it is.
 
I belive the 1.8 is only about 96 hp stock. Just a guess, but I would say with everything you have done, you're a bit above the stock 2.0 which is 135hp, I would say even close 150hp. But that is merely a guess, when you get it back together, the best thing would be to find a Dyno and run it on there.
 
I didn't see a UDP anywhere on your list. Get one of those. The butt dyno speaks highly of them.
 
what would a udp do. i don't understand how it makes it go faster?? (it just turns a belt, right?)
please explain, for i woulldn't mind gettting one.
how much gain would one expect???

thanks boys
