Ya, that car probably really scoots now.

Very nice results and torque plateau.
Could go to 250whp with a few more psi without taking serious risks, i think |
Have you pulled the butterfly plates out of the IM? I agree, nice #'s! That torque curve is nice and flat. I will be changing out my JDM 1.6 for a '99 BP4W in future, with similar turbo bits, so encouraging post for me to see!

Thanks! I didn't want to push the torque much farther and risk breaking my 5 speed. I'll likely pick up a 6 speed and a 3.63 diff just to have more of a safety margin.
I didn't modify the intake manifold at all. Good luck with your swap! How come you opted for the BP4W rather than a VVT engine? The wiring harness for my 99 NB6 will work with the BP4W ( cam pos. and crank pos.) without any messing with, and as I have a Megasquirt2 I don't think I can control the VVT function. (I could easily be wrong on that, but from my reading so far, think I need the MSM3 to do VVT). Seems like each, BP4W and BP6D have pros and cons, as far as port angle, etc. with the outcome being a wash between the two heads potential in stock form, decided to look for a '99-00 engine. Yossi just emailed with a 63K running engine that I thought was a great deal. My present NB6 runs great, and made 186HP on a Mustang, so I could be smart, and leave well enough alone, but what fun is that? |
