Gen6GT Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 Can you really get 500 BHP from a GT4? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1995-Toyota-Celica-GT4-ST205-turbo-500BHP-/120751911135?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item1c1d5ff0df Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nthnmunky Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 Yes, it's been more than done! I know Fensport have had the 3SGTE over 700bhp on more than one occasion and some of our own members have GT4s in excess of 500bhp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sawyer Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 With a bit of work, that could be one great looking brutal machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Briano Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 i imagine its more than possible, i know of a gen 5 with just over 400bhp, and the st205 engine is meant ot be stronger and capable of much more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dublet Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 Possible, yes. But for how long. Inline 4 engines have an inherent unbalance that takes it's toll for very high powers. It's why inline 6 engines are easily pumped up to 1000+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's why inline 6 engines are easily pumped up to 1000+. the gen 5 GT4 i speak of has been running 400bhp on the standard gasket for at least 6 years, with no problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sawyer Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 I guess it's also down to who built it, how it was run in and how well it's looked after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
