Default So what is a Beta 2.0 DOHC really capable of ?

Whats up everyone,

I'm new to this forum because I just gotta smokin deal on 1999 Tibby. It's bone stock and has the 2.0 DOHC motor in it.

So here's my question; What kind of performance is this powerplant capable of with NA modifications?

The reason I'm asking is because I have a tendancy of going overboard with dumping money into cars. So I just want to know if it's worth it.

Thanks.

There are guys with turbos that make a lot of power. We can't get much NA, just a few MPG's. If you're looking for power, you're best saving about $2-3k for a turbo kit.

Save some money for some handling goodies to harness the power. A lot of people trick out the car's handling, then turn to power.

Best of luck!

Turbo will always make more power than N/A and probably be cheaper to, i have seen N/A tibs push anywhere between 100kw to 114kw. I have seen a Sonota with 50 sideraughs pushing 140kw. but that is far from street legal and there is no feul consumption....

Has the New 2l hyundai motors have Cvvti?

For me the biggest turn off to a tib is that a 1600Ek vtec will kick your butt ask me i know i had a 2000 tib....

Agreed.

Probably around 160whp n/a, unless your willing to spend alot on like a standalone management and a stroker kit and custom high comp pistons, then I could see 200+whp na.

But sadly for all the money you would have spent the car would never pull like one with say 12 psi. The boosted one would have a killer mid range also!

Well, it sounds like a juice snail is the way to go and I love the way forced induction feels. How much do you think 12 to 14 psi will cost me?
