ABF engine, what an engine!!!

Today was my first day driving my mk3 ABF, and my god , what an amazing machine , I think that this engine is the best naturally aspirated engine humans ever built, I bet that it would kill BMW's 6 cylinder 2.0 , and would easily kill any car with naturally aspirated 2.0 engine.
Thank you VW!!!

 

Think you would get more excited driving a MK1 with an ABF in it

 

I guess, damn heavy mk3's !

 

ABF turbos are even better. Even in a mk3.

 

try a civic type r vtec engine then bud,,,8.5k/9k rev limit/199bhp from factory,

 

I like naturally aspirated engines more than forced induction, and Hondas are ugly and not german

 

how much more power do you guys think I'll get if I added a lightweight crank, pistons ,piston rods , and fly wheel, with a decent clutch?

 

0 extra hp lol

 

why?!

 

It's not letting any extra air into the engine.

 

Will just make it more free revving. Just a lightened flywheel is suppose to make a big difference, thats the next mod on my list. And not expensive at all.

 

Not a lot.

However if you were to lose one of the cams and 8 valves, the parasitic losses would be reduced considerably.

8V FTW!

 

Danster when can i see your engine spec. Ive never known someone love 8 valves so much!

lol. Civic type r isnt all that. I managed to keep up with one in my mk1. Was quite pleased thought i was gonna get whooped!

 

Civic types R were great in the rear view of my mk1. ABF FTW!

 

last year me & bargate did a 1/4 mile sprint day at Elvington and a load of Civic's turned up

they were all p*ssed off when they couldn't beat our 30 year old VW's

 

Yeah, it is good to put those Honda lads in their place.

You do not need a 16v to do this though. My mate with some kind of Mugen kitted B16 Civic was well peeved when my old 1.6 8v was able catch and pass him.
His engine bay looked very bling with all sorts of gizmos, he got even more peeved when I opened my bonnet and all that was noticeable was an old Weber 32/36 from a Ford Capri.

 

my abf is pretty cool. revvy, fun, begs to be thrashed and its on 227k mile. tonight its coming out for "race wars", even at this mileage it can still take a damn good thrashing, i love mine

 

lets be honest brookster (and the rest) all your cars should be caining them looking at your specs!!
il get there one day! happy with what ever it is atm! couldnt imagine 198 bhp in mine!
what you saying then danster an old weber carb and thats it
or is it the works every where else!

 

There may also have been 1 or 2 mm skimmed off various parts of the engine. And one uprated "lumpy stick" installed.

 

"lumpy stick"
making me think i should get an 8 valve back in there!!!
