how's it goin fellas and fellates-
i've been on here for a bit now and every now and then i see someone with a DET engine popped into their car.
now- i know with all the tweaking there is possible i'm sure the DET will make a billion hp at the wheels- but- how much power does it really put out for the average joe shmoe who just drops the motor into his lil G??
stick shift or automatic - it doesn't really matter - we'll just compare before/after outputs with either tranny.
anyone have any data on this??
thanks everyone.

A difference?
Of course it makes a difference, anytime you add a hundred hp to your car or so. A HUGE difference!
Perhaps I don't understand what you're asking?

I'm not sure about a 100 extra hp. Must be some bad sushi you had today. :p A regular BB DET just dropped in will get you at least 50-70 extra hp. What you'll notice more is the torque.

Lets see here....
Stock G20 with an SR20DE = 140hp at the flywheel
Stock BB SR20DET = ~210hp at the flywheel (with no mods)
Well, it's only 70 horsepower!.
A few of the guys here have put in a DET, added an exhaust and intake and make 230+hp.
So, that's about a 90 horsepower difference.
Somehow i think you would notice a *slight* difference in power. :rolleyes: :D

70hp will make a huge difference on any car. One bad thing about getting a DET would be a lot more speeding tickets.

Only if you have no self control.

$200 for labor??? to install headers for an entire DET engine?
You'll need a good $4-$5000 for EVERYTHING (assuming you want to use good product with top-notch labor)

That first link is a real monster! That car hauls some serious ass. The guy just bought it, I have no idea why he's selling it now.
The other two links are for Silvia DET's and won't work in the G.
