Build head power increase
Does anyone has build head on 2.0 Motor?
I'd like to know what to expect powerwise from a build head (like buschur has on his website). Heard too many different oppinions ranging from 10HP to 50HP.
If anyone has any solid numbers please respond!!!!

Well there's a very big difference in numbers because there's so many different ways to build a head. Perhaps if you told us what cams (262's still??) you'd run and what stg porting you'd like to get, we could better guestimate the numbers.

its 264/264 and at its curent state i am puling 315HP Dynopack not being tuned for half the mods i have.
Head I am looking at is Buchur stage 3 build head.
I just spoke with Jackson Automachine and they claim 50HP with just the head . Sounds alot . Any real numbers please.

Stock turbo on an EVO there is NO way you will see anywhere near 50 whp gains.
Stock turbo on a 350-400 whp engine in an EVO I'd say gains are realistically 15-25 WITH the proper tuning to go along with it. The stock EVO head is pretty darn good out of the box.
Find me a head that will make 50 whp and I will buy all of our heads from the company that did that one.

might be a stupid question, but what kind of gains would you expect on a FP White Rabbit or your 20/21G (when it's ready) with a ported/polished and port-matched head, your ported intake manifold, and 60mm throttle body?
I don't know what the cylinder head is going to do on a WR or 21g equipped car, have to dyno them and see when the time comes around.
Our intake and 65 mm throttle body I have dyno'd and they are solid 10 whp increases.

My goal is to make the white rabit run faster and make over 400HP+
So if I can get 15-20HP from magnus manifold with this setup, I'd be happy.
The only concern I have is what people say the spool gets slower with biger intake? I wanted to confirm if that is true or just a BS?

I can't remember were I saw it, but one of the tuner mags did an intake comparrioson on a mild evo. The bigger intakes didn't make much difference. Some even lost power. My opinion is, there are other things you can spend money on they have better bang-for-buck.
Also, I did my head, 1mm over SS valves, port/polish, 3 angle valve seats, etc..
I picked up 10-12hp. I also ported the exhaust and intake manifolds at the same time.
