"Turbo SR motors suck!"

El_Presidente · Jan 5th, 2003, 11:07 AM

OK, before you jump all over me, I'm not the one saying this. I know someone who has a 240 with an SR20DET, and hes always saying how turbo sr motors suck. I dont know why hes always talking shit like that, maybe he just has a ghetto setup or somthing and always having problems, but I was looking to see if some of you guys could give me some good facts why they DONT suck.
thanks

Turbo SR motors are only as good as the install/tuner.

In this scenario I'd have to say it was the user.

This is a stock SE-R motor besides a set of cams. These motors are awesome that in stock trim they can handle this much power.

There aren't many motors that can handle 3 1/2 times their stock power on a stock motor.

try runnin boost at high levels and try to crate high horsepower on factory honda bottom ends.....I think an sr crank is good for like 500hp stock..some one correct me if I am wrong but enigines dont get too much more bullet-proof or have more potential than the sr20s.......again as previously stated operator error or abuse can ruin any engine......

I read that Top Secret in Japan got a 1000hp sr20det soon to be released

JUN already built a 1000+ HP Silvia with an SR20DET. the SR20 engines are very, very good with heavy modifications and lots of horsepower.

They don't suck.

They blow.

NA sucks.

No, actually SR20DETs do suck, they have an oil cooler which causes them to suck, while SR20DEs just try to suck but with no oil cooler, they just pump air.

A 140HP air pump.

I consider that a SR22DET since it has the JUN 2.2 stroker kit....still, it originally was an SR20 block. Wish I could afford one of those!

Theres pro and cons of every engine. It all comes down to how much money youve got.
