it cant

but it can be stroked pretty nicely if you have the money

Hey guys, I have a 2003 tib , (beta engine) Im actually now up to 190 Horsepower.. Not at the wheels, at the engine. (probably around 150 engine..) Im running 4-2-1 headers , 2,5 inch exhaust , AEM CAI , bbtb 63MM , electric fuel pump , 8mm spark plug wires , iridium spark plugs .. etc etc etc !

Warp21 must be close with the beta NA he is running. Im not sure if he has dynoed it though. He has the fastest NA on the site.

This has been an interesting thread. Now I know where to start to get more horsepower out of my car at least thank you

Turboron_99

^^^^^ YEAH, and its not NA. Go Turbo. You can make 200 who off a 2000 dollar turbo kit with a stock block and simply fuel upgrades, anything more your going to want Aem Fix for tuning.

faithofadragon

nope, not even close, i bet you dont even have 140hp get it dynoed and im sure youll be shocked, ricer math doesnt count







warp parted his out a few months ago, sunshine_racer20 was the fastest NA beta ive seen to date, with a track time of like 14.1, he blew it up MANY MANY MANY times getting there, tried to get a 13 and never could, eventually giving up on it



and since cobra is the only person who can actually prove his times/hp, id say hes the fastest on the site

Tibbi

Truth be told, we can talk bore/stroke all day but in the end how well does our head flow? Just asking the engine to breathe deeper without addressing the real point of restriction is virtually pointless. But a good professional p&p is very expensive, plus you'll want to backup those mods with valvetrain/cam mods. Maybe even bigger intake valves, BBTB (if not ITBs), airram or custom plenum. To make 200 whp w/out a blower on a beta you'll need to accommodate 230 cfm at the bare minimum. (Check out dude's # on a ported Beta2 head here.) Stroking and boring alone will not make that happen ever. Might want to also look at compression increases and timing enhancement, then run something more robust than pump swill. Keeping in mind with those deep breaths you will need more fuel than the stock system feeds.





By the time you've done all of that you could have plopped that cash down on a really killer turbo system and seen over double the gains. In the end it's all about the chosen battle.

Granted if you plan to keep the car a long time or any kind of reliable boosted project you'll address some of the above anyway.

You don't think I do ?? loll I did'nt even write everything I had in the car lol .. Add to that , ported intake manifold , ported Head , Chip tuning ..

03tibby

Look lol.. My beta ( or anyone ) has 138 Horsepower.. add CAI (142) add exhaust line plus headers (150) , Throttle body and ported intake (160), Wires and plugs 160,5 LOL , Bored out head(170) , Underdrive cranck pully 175 ! Not bad .. already more than any stock GK

faithofadragon

"chip tuning" yeah sure i definately believe you now



ricer math doesnt do sh*t



no one believes your made up numbers



besides if you were "tuned" you would have a dyno to prove it



i still wanna know why you list "electric fuel pump" as a mod, we all have one



thats like listing "brake booster" as a mod



and how is it you now have a underdrive pulley, when, 10 minutes ago you just posted looking for info on where to buy one?
