    Probably for another thread, but the pictures above of the exhaust ports and improvements to them were really interesting. It be great to see something similar to that for the intake ports too.

    The 2L already has aggressive "intakes". I leave them alone. Other engines I raise the shelf to change the intake ports. Just my experieces.

    Good to know about the intakes for when I take mine apart. Also I'll use the chip bag

    How difficult would it be to mod a 2.0L still on regular gas and exceed the power of an XR4?

    Can be done but would be a lot of work. If you have the xr4 it would be a lot easier to make more power from it.

    What I suppose for the XR4 would be composite reeds (which I've done), convert to horizontal front, a stuffer, and maybe some limited head work is what might do it?
