the most ever seen in this gen 1.5 was 201whp on 15psi stock internals and a 40 shot. vitara piston fit with minor mods but rods are 700 so the only option i have is shot peen stock rods.i had to modify the stock mani cause the only thing close to fitting is an ew4 crx si. just waiting on money to make it faster. sick setup btw.

I have a hyundai accent with 1.5sohc (apha motor) that I built/boosted. Im running shot peened rod and low compression cast iron pistons and they have held up so far. I was runnin 22psi but on a t25 that was so small it couldnt make no power (I ran it with the wastegate line pulled). It made 195whp and 220 torque im hoping to much more more down with the next turbo.
