would like to know which would be better. and what would be the best place to find one and in a good price range.

 

how much are you looking to build your motor up to what ?
how much power are you looking for and what do you want to rev to?

 

i am looking to get around 650 700whp by next winter and rev around 8500rpm.

 

cool man. my personal opinion is you should probably wind up going with a 2.3l if there your only two options. have you thought about full out build 2.0? i think you could acheive that much power on a built 2.0 what turbo set up are you gonna be running and what are you planning on doing?

 

havent really thought about a 2.0 i heard alot about the 2.1 being a good motor but i also heard that the 2.3 is is just about the same. the turbo i would like to get is a 60 trim.

 

2.4 block with 2.0 crank and boring the block is a 2.1l (destroked) im pretty sure.
60 trim? what kind of kit are you looking at and what shop is doing the install?

that is the turbo i am looking to get

 

If you want to rev that hight I would go with at 2.1destroker

 

for the 600-700whp-- at 8500rpm a 2.3 is the choice to have based on that alone.

Now depending on what you'll be doing with the car there are benefits to your other selection and/or other setups.

Check out DTM's 2.4 mivec stroker setup. TONS of different options with that block.

 

2.1 is a great motor best rod ratio motor there is i believe. But i dont think you really need it to rev to only 8500rpms. I would say the only turbo you really need a 2.1 for is a 42r to get the 10000rpms+ that motor allows you to rev to. For your turbo option i think a stroker would probably be your best bet and you would be around the max rev on the 2.3 at 8500rpms.

^exactly... 8500 is around the max you want to push a 2.3 unless you have some trick stuff.

You have a wide range of options... but you have to say what you'll be doing with the car!

Daily driver, drag, road race, drift, etc, etc, etc.

Without that info you can't really "optimize" your setup for what you will be doing.

Do you have an idea of what you want to do with it?

 

i think i am going to go with the 2.3l stroker. i was looking on slowboyracing.com and there stoker kit is 1900 with a remanufactured 4g64 crank would that be a good deal or should i look elsewhere?

 

daily driver and drag.

 

2.3 RR from AMS. you can easily rev to 8500, plus you'll need all the displacement you can get if its a DD, with a big turbo.

 

2.1 with a 37R for daily/drag i suggest.

the 2.3RR from AMs is a road race motor.
