Well I've seen a 4efte in one, so a 5efte is a minor alteration to that

There is one with the conversion carried out, but with a 4e setup

i would use a 4age 20v insted would be easyier fit and higher CC to start with

 

[GlanzaX]

cost of a well buildt 4age 20v is high compare to boosting getting the engine is a problem

like to see what transmission you would use!

why would you prefer that over the torque of the 5efte?

A T50 would be enough.
Its not too difficult to fab up an adapter plate.

the blacktops have VVT so tourque will be still there all over the rev range.

its got ALOT more potental than a 4e series engine IMO

yea if you turbo it i guess, but a n/a wouldnt be all that?

165 bhp aint bad for an 1.6 n/a. but if your comparing a 5efte to a n/a 20valve then it depends on the purpose your wanting the car for but i would say its a close match if running close to a 4e stock setup but on a 5e.
