[QUOTE="LevIn92_gze, post: 1162881, member: 21859"] I've got to admit, there ARE other great Toyota engines that make much more power like the 3S-GTE, 7M-GTE, 4A-GZE or 2JZ-GTE (1991-present Supra Turbo). But, I'm very fond of the 4A-GE because of its light weight and the hidden potential power. Who knows, maybe I'll gather up more info and specs on other Toyota engines and dedicate some pages to them! Until then... If you think that getting 165 hp out of a 1.6L motor isn't enough, check this out... There's a highly-tuned, normally-aspirated 4A-GE variant used in the Toyota Formula Atlantic Series. The displacement is still at 1.6L, but they fitted it with a fuel-injection/ignition system by TRD. In full-race trim, you can expect to get 240 beat-you-till-you're-senseless horsepower! At home in a 1,260 lb. race car, 0-60 passes by in 2.8 seconds! Quick calculations show that this monster of a motor develops 150 hp per liter. To put it into perspective, if the 5.7L Corvette engine was tuned to the same level of the 4A-GE race motor, it would make around 855 hp! And the F/A motor doesn't even have steel cylinder inserts!
