Soupin' up a four-banger...

Has anyone here ever bored a 2.5L to get more horses/torque?

If I have to rebuild mine, I may as well shoot for a little more power. I was just wondering what kind of difference to expect, and at what price.

Honestly, you'll get less than what you're going to pay.. What I mean, most, but not all of the machine shops chrage per job, not per motor (ex a 4 cyl and a 8 cyl will have the same price for machining)

I say do it, I love hot rodded odd motors.

4BangerJP.com - Index will give you some first-hand answers.

I'm picking up a spare 4banger soon, it will be rodded more than the current one.
