Originally posted by touchless2506 Does anyone have advice on reaching 200hp? We are rebuilding completely. Stock horsepower is 140hp. Been toying with ideas of raising ccompression. Ideas, excluding boost and spray. It will be a daily driver with pep.
The only issue there is that you're going to spend a lot more to make that 200HP NA than you would with a small turbo, or spray. You're talking about increasing power by 42%. That's huge for a small displacement NA engine.
Frankly, your goal isn't anywhere near impossible, but your budget needs to be increased quite a bit to make it realistic. Bullett has a lot of time and money into his 200+ HP NA, maybe you should read through some of his build journal / other work to get a feel for what breaking that 200HP barrier NA entails.
