1.6 litres, 20 valves, 160-170hp, 8500rpm and yet yuh car still nowhere CLOSE to catching a stock 1.3L?
geez....20v is really mess oui

Why try to up-play the 20v like this by listing everything out then downplay your engine by saying it's just a stock 1.3 as if it's also naturally aspirated? A turbocharger makes a big difference in case you haven't noticed.
Why try to compare these two engines like this? Apples and oranges is an understatement.
The 4efte is a very powerful (for it's size) light engine that's predominantly used in light cars.
Why knock or bad talk either engine as mess when we all here know that there's a lot more to the equation? I'm pretty sure that a corolla with a 4efte installed will not be competitive against a corolla with a 20v, Why? Power to weight of the entire package.
Starlet - 1892 lbs - 135hp
Corolla - 2552 lbs - 170hp
Your car is fast (all relative now) you've earned the right to say that corollas with 20v engines so far can't catch you, but to call that engine mess while rating up that puny little 135hp motor is just naively delusional.

Yes that is a true statement , the limitation from factory is that theecu limits to 8200rpm and the valvetrain will need better springs with more tension so valve float will not be inherent and hoe , yes not only honda engines can swing 10k, ford escort BDA (1600cc twincam 16Valve) engines have been doing that before any of us were even born !!!
toyota fanboyism at its best!
i asked if the motor can swing 10k FROM THE FACTORY
if u need to upgrade valve train then the answer is NO
i was not bashing but since this is a technical forum i would have liked to be given an informative answer
but apparently i ruffled sum feathers
i also noticed dat CL101 is ignoring my question
so i'll ask a 3rd time
with the exception of an ecu upgrade is the 20v engine capable of swinging 10k from the factory WITHOUT any work being done to the block???

so I think it's fair to say 20v is one of the lamest engines ever produced

honda hoe wrote:smokey1275, thx for ur response
from my personal experience... my last engine got valve float @ 9200rpm
now barring the valve train.. u noticed my question was specifically asking about the balancing of the block
a 20v engine is not a 'race engine'
so i can't see it being able to spin anywhere close to 10k reliably out the factory without pistons flying everywhere
can u provide a link showing its capable of swinging such rpm stock?
www.billzilla.org. good reading here.
cuz it seems to me like its more hearsay than anything

Just another link I found.
Very nice engine, if you can afford to modify it.

i think because my pump not wired together with the air flow
trdboy wrote:a172 i know u refered to it as a ricer fly by lol!!! but if the 20v so shitty why not make a pull on the highway with it, it have one 20v i can vouch for who will give u a good run
the specs u listed would be from the ae111 bzr and gt, so those are the fellas to should get to pull and after u wash them away with ur stock 1.3 with stock boost i mighten get so teary when u say the 20v is sheit lol!!
