How much horsepower can a 2ZZ make?
The 2ZZ-GE engine was added with a new variable valve timing and lift intelligent system VVTL-i. It strongly differs from the VVT-i model: after 6,200 rpm valve lifting increases and reaches not more than 11.2 mm/10.0 mm and the motor develops a capacity of 192 horsepower at 7,600 rpm.
Is the 2ZZ-GE engine reliable?
The biggest issue with 2zz engines were the early engines had a problem with their oil pumps so see if it has a new engine or a new pump. As far as reliability, make sure they have had regular oil changes because it has a timing chain and it’s really expensive to fix if it ran without regular oil changes.
Can you turbo a 2ZZ-GE?
The 2ZZ loves boost. Its high stock compression ratio limits us to 7-8psi but that is still enough to put 260-280hp to the wheels. Simply upgrade your pistons and you can push any of the three turbos to its limits which means you’re near 400whp on the bigger turbos.
What car has a 2ZZ engine?
The 2ZZ is a “square” design optimized for high-RPM power and was chosen by Lotus in 2004 to appear in the new Series 2 Lotus Exige. The engine subsequently then appeared int he Lotus Elise 111R and Elise R and was then supercharged for use in the Elise, Exige and Lotus 2-Eleven.
How much horsepower can a 2zz-GE handle?
The 250-275 “safe” range is wheel horse power. Something right around 300 is probably the “safe” max limit at the crank.
Can you supercharge a 2zz?
More power can be obtained from a 2ZZ-GE, following in the footsteps of Lotus, by slapping a supercharger and an intercooler onto it. Thanks to its stock forged internals, it doesn’t need to be disassembled and tinkered with in any other way if it’s in a good state.
Are 2ZZ engines good?
Unlike the 2AZ, the 2ZZ is built for excellent performance. It was the first four cylinder engine from Toyota to use both an aluminum block and an aluminum cylinder head which saves a ton of weight. This little engine is so excellent, Lotus used it in their Elise.
How much horsepower can a 2ZZ GE handle?
How much boost can a stock 2ZZ GE handle?
Your stock parts can only handle about 6-7 psi and about 260whp I believe. If you want more than 300 you will need to upgrade your rods, and drop lower compression pistons, probably will need to sleeve the block and do some other stuff. Rods and pistons are your main restrictions for higher boost.
