thats okay ... but b20 push's that without a turbo lol .. i used own cav and i though it was fast .. haha then i race integra got my ass whooped by 3 cars lol so i bought me honda =D
@estevanv1500 but they've got only about 115lb/ft of torque, meaning if you catch the driver unaware or you happen to be going up a hill, they ain't that quick. I had a chipped vectra 2.2 sri150 (about 175bhp) and that would happily hold a CTR at bay up an incline
monkeyboy the engine in the RS200 was a BDT not a YB COSWORTH and they made up to 550+BHP and how can you say the cosworth engine is shite cosworth designed the head for the vauxhall XE red top
The Redtops cosworth made, they've got a stamp under head - Coscast. Also there is no core plug on the side of the head.. Cosworth did make the best XE heads. Vauxhall GM heads kept going poruse. I've got both XE / LET and both coscast heads thank god.
even people use the red tops in the escort mk2 they only have to rebuilt once a year. ybs are like rocking horse shit for parts massive running costs.
Cossie engines are awful things, rough and thirsty, only designed originally to make 300hp for the RS200 (and even then it used to blow its stack regularily!) so boosting it to more than twice that is not a good Idea!!!!!!!
Good old redtop? thats prolly the worst 2ltre engine there is. Cosworth YB, now thats an engine. Let me know when a redtop does over 1000BHP and remains reliable as any other road car ;-)
yout talking crap my friend, the red top engine is far more reliable than the horrible rough old bag of shite ford made in the 80s!!!! your are crazy bud, just crazy!
Love Cavalier Turbo just cost to much to maintain and run :(

I have to say cavaliers were one of the only decent vauxhalls going.

good power for an old car but dont dare compare it to the beauty of the cosworth YB block, lets not forget its still a vauxhall.

a cosworth yb at 1000bhp is NOT reliable, 700 is not reliable, reliable in a YB is between 350 and 400

Full exhaust(decat) / Cone Airfilter / Sard Fuel reg.
Going back on the dyno, after I've fitted actuator / intercooler kit. This time I'll make sure my phone is charged for a video. lol
