VR6Nat 9 Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 To be honest, that is really as far as you can go without going FI. You can only really get around 210 - 220bhp max out of a standard vr, to go the next step you would need to get a charger or turbo, then you're looking at 270bhp and up but then you're talking a lot of money too...

FishWick 21 Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 Forced induction or R32 conversion.By the time you've spent 1000s on big valve heads, high lift cams, capacity increases and trick cranks, 12:1 pistons etc etc, you'll struggle to hit 250 @ the crank. It's just how 12Vs are. They're not worth tuning normally aspirated beyond the basics. Link to post Share on other sites

FishWick 21 Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 For me, the Eaton is better. It's positive displacement so you will get boost low down. The M90 is the one to go for. There is a guy on here who has installed one and it goes very well indeed :-)The Vortech needs a lot of revs to get the boost as it's centrifugal, but it needs a lot less work to install than the Eaton Link to post Share on other sites
