how much power does a 1.6 vitara motor have and how much can you get out of them?

Which one the 8 or the 16 valve?

as for potential I've heard of turbo'd 8 valves pushing 140flywheel hp

The most I'd even seen (with my own eyes) is ~125flywheel hp out of a turbo'd 8 valve

There are some nice photo's of some well set up turbo'd 16 Valve 1.6's around but I've no idea what kind of power there putting out.

Stock 8V - 55kw
Stock 16V - 65-70kw

How much potential power all depends on $$$. If you're chasing power though, start with a 16V.

thank you for responce i am considering a 16v vitara turbo/blower chasing a cheap 4cly to use with a auto box in a seirra. what torque will they produce and are there any other 4cyl that i could consider. i'm going to run 4.6/4.8 diffs 37" tyres and build car for tuff truck and simalar events.

3RZFE - 2.7litre hilux - It'll make the power of a turbo 1.6 without all the hassle and runs (effectively) the same auto as an EFI vitara (AW-4 variant)

Steve.

or if you want to stick to the smaller motor go for a 4AGZE. stabdard supercharger and heaps of off-idle torque.

if the toyota motor uses the same auto as vitara (aw-4) will it bolt to a vitara transfer or a hilux? can a 4agze bolt to a corolla auto or something there all good ideas to throu around.

the end resalt is to find a good combo that is cost efective to replace come the high reving and water logging conditions that i'm shore that all you guys would love to see it in action.

Did they use the AW-4 in the Prado and Hiace with the 3RZ-FE aswell??
