10vT or 20vT? decisions decisions.

[Puglife]

varies, but as a rule of thumb i'd say up to £750 for ecu wiring and fuel setup.
034motorsport do some tasty bits in the states.

A KV engine isn't massively tuneable tbh... unless you go for S/C route? but then your talking big money anyway. A WR engine on Efi still has the warble soundtrack but has bags of low down torque and then good useable power, mapping also allows you to move the powerband about abit so you can reduce the turbo lag effect and then if you upgrade turbo you can see other gains.

but i thought URQ were around 6k for a good one? that sound a lot more than a 300 quid for 10vt engine? even with all other bits needed, surely its not gonna cost 'THAT' much?

Plus you will need a different flywheel if going 20v.


EDIT just realised you are the same person who asked this question over on s2forum.Those links i posted yesterday have just about everything covered.

i have a coupe of spaner handy 'm8-anics'.
