why changing from 2.3 to 2.0?
But why do you need to rev so high? You think a 2.4 isnt gonna get to redline as fast? My 2.4 Talon in neutral revs 2x as fast as my 2.0 Evo... Not an exaggeration. Hell, I just might make a video of it this weekend for proof.
here is a better video you made showing the rpms tscompusa

im sorry having tons of tq is just whats going to keep you and passengers on edge and being able to hit it quickly

Yeah, my 2.4 for is so rev happy which is why I never really understand all the bench racing negativity around it. I love the extra off boost torque and quicker spool, just cant say it enough.
A smaller motor will still have a wider powerband assuming its running a big turbo. A 2.4 at best will spool what, 500 rpm earlier? A 2.0 or 2.1 can safely rev 1,000+ rpm more giving you a 500+ rpm advantage.
It shouldn't really matter what the latest trend is or who is doing what... here is a link on stroking mitsu motors. Its a good read and explains everything...its not going to make the decision for you....and opinions are like A$$ holes, everyone has one... read it and gain some insight and then decide. Its a good read , I dont take credit for it, just an earlier posting on the topic.....

thats what ive been trying to tell u guys. with the turbo that i am planning on going higher(pte6765) it make some serious power but it spools a bit slower than my current turbo(gt35r).
im trying to push 800whp, but i was kind of worried about my torque being low with that amount of power
. so my choises r:
1. stick to the 2.1, rev high- high whp but low torque (current motor)
2. buil a 2.4 sb, low revs- high whp, high torque but slow spooiling from the turbo wont allow the car to show its true power
(old plans for my 2.4)
3.built a 2.4 lb, high revs- high whp, high torque, no problem from the spooling of the turbo since i could rev to the moon
and ready to kick some ***(new plans)
witch 1 looks better so i could stick to it
as for the drive train: i have the shep ultimate ratio tranny, a quaife in the tc, alumminum drive shaft from AWD, dss stage 5 rear axles, and dss stage 3 front axles, so im not reaaly worried about that.

Not to mention a built head w/ big cams.
alanarias22 stick w/ a 2.0, LR 2.0, or a 2.1 for the 6765 or 3794...
The high rev/high hp builds are nice but your still pushing the engine pass it's design.
taking a 2.3/ 2.4 & a LR 2.4 beyond 8300-8500 rpms is averaging a mean piston speed of >27ms, most studies I've read typically state to stay whithin at or below 25-26ms for engine longevity(life). A 2.3, & a LR 2.4L build for high hp/high revs is for something like the hta 3586 or 6262.

Im switching from a BR 2.0 to a BR 2.3, both 10-1 motors. The reason is simple, if your building a real drag car with a T3 turbo for 150mph plus the 2.0 is the way to go, for a stock frame turbo such as the stock Ix that peaks before 7k, a Green HTA 7100, Red 7300 or a Black 75ish the 2.3 will yield more power and torque up to 7500. So for me being im trying to keep this car a perfect daily driver with great response the 2.3 will be better with the Green HTA. I am now collecting turbo's to make a comparison run next year, I have a stock IX, Green, and Black, just need a Red now.
