> [@turbo~mitsu](#): > > to my knowledge the 4g64 has 146hp stock thats a whopping 6 hp more then the 420a and i belive the 4g63 has 210hp… yeah they can get 400hp on stock internals if done right but for me its just not worth all the hassle of swapping… so $800 later i have pistons that will withstand way more then the 4g64’s :picard: When bobby told me about this thread I didnt believe it was this bad.

HE DOESNT NEED TO HAVE ANY MODS… any r6 newer than 02 (03’s were FI and made around 100 whp) will rape 90% of cars on the street good luck getting a fwd eclipse with a 420a into the 10’s because… thats where id be on a stock r6… and i bet id be trapping right around the 130 mark… its quite laughable to see anybody try to achieve that on a fwd dsm with your platform of a motor… best of luck to you… make sure im at the track when you take her down her first 14 sec pass even the 99 r6’s (first year) were capable of being DEEP into the 11’s, ive even seen some with 10’s… id venture to guess you wouldnt be touching those either… 2 mods and I guarantee that… (strap… gearing) thats it ---
