i was doing some research and noticed that pretty much the only difference between the beams 3w-ge and the 3s-gte is that the 3s-ge has the vvt-i and producing about 197 hp compared to the 3s-gte that has no vvt-i but a turbo putting it at about 225hp. does anyone know of anyone that has tries to take the vvt-i head off from the beams motor and put it on the 3s-gte

Low compression and turbo's usually go hand in hand because the rods and pistons needed to run high compression and high boost are extremely expensive. Look at the porsche 911, i believe compression is 11:1. Not too sure.
All those who boost their V-Tec and VVTi motors have to disengage their variable valve timing. Variable valve timing has too much cam overlap to properly boost a motor. |
