115 optimax v6 to 135hp

[astroboy]

I own a 115 optimax v6 engine, model 2000 and I would like to convert it to 135hp, in mi knowledge only the ecm and a lever are dierent, so can it be done, or how can I make it a bit more powerful.

The US versions of the 115 optimax are 3 cyls, so not sure you will get a good answer? :confused:

Thanks, let me clarify this 115 is a 2000 model and is a 6cyl. it was bought in texas.

it was made for two years I believe and pretty much a detuned overweight turd. If you have the patience to weed through the parts catalog it can be determined what it takes, but I would'nt be surprised if it is just the ecm and throttle linkage piece.

Never knew such a creature existed :eek:

Thank you, I working on the parts catalog, and i think it is just those two pieces, hopufuly it will work, if there are any other ideas let me know.

Hell I'd go for 150 if at all possible, the 135's were'nt stellar for anything other than fuel milage either.

[NNT]

is it a 2.0 or 2.5 ? :confused:

[astroboy]

It is a 2.5 liter 6cyl.

2.5 115 hp???? what a waste.. im sure you can swap parts out from a 135 or even a 150... if i were you i would just swap out the powerhead

Probably i will just get rid of it and ge myself a Triton tr176 with a 150hp optimax.
