here in charlotte its known that there will be something poppin on a nice saturday night. last weekend was no different except it was a dyno night. there were alot of nice cars out there! some guy from HIN brought his black emotion nissan z out and there were a couple supras...but what caught my atteniton was a little grey trecel. i go over to one of the dyno operators and ask what engine it is, he says something about a 4e and its a starlett engine swap from japan...uh okay...never heard of a starlett. but anyway, he completes the dyno test and only 110 hp pops up the guy looked pretty disappointed and i was stupified. is it me or is something terribly wrong here? the guy says his fuel was too rich but i call bs. it was a turbo but it was putting the same hp as my car (st)
someone please clarify what a starlett engine is because i would expect more out of an engine thats turboed.

now i want to race him....for sh!!ts and giggles...

4efte, its not a 4a... i'd like to think it could handle 10 pounds of boost, i mean, its like a minature 3sgte 2.0L just 1.3L's who knows, they can handle 300+ on the stock engine block, so hopefully the 4efte could handle around or alittle less than 200hp
