If two mx-3's had a race and one had a kl-ze and the other had a bpt which one would win? If is hasent been done it would be intresting to see which is faster because the klze is a big heavy engine. Also which engine has the most potential for power?

Hummm, maybe this is why he said BPT, not BP? :confused2:

I actually think the BPT has more potenial then ZE, but just a thought.

bpt would win, just slight changes to boost would make it no match. the klze and the bpt in stock form seem to be about the same, but the bpt is lighter so i would say it would win. but there are some that would differ.

then you have to look at what the fastest MX's are running. BPT. so i think that says it all.

Ive only ever heard of 600hp on a K series motor. It was twin turbo'ed and was on a drag car... where is this 800hp ZE?

It is 800 hp but it aint in no mx-3, from all mx-3s the bpt powered ones are the fastest?

Plus I have heard of 1000 hp 4 cyl engines before.. Drag cars are different alltogethor.

i'd still say the ze is a better base. n/a it makes the about the same power as the bpt.

but it dont make the torque that a BPT does, that turbo lets it make more torque, the BPT has more potential BUT you dont get the sweet soulfull song a V6 wound out to 7000 RPM

i'm also curious about this... but i'd personally go with the BPT GTR motor, cuz its 210hp, and has that nice bov sound *drool* :)

take a normal BP and turbo it and your way past the GT-R motor, from what i understand the GT-R motor is a waste
