2.1 and MD321T
Anybody running this combo on a newage? If so good and bad points please, i have a 2.2 block here with forged internals i was going to drop in. Or just do the norm and drop a 2.5 in her?
I need to decide which route to take, full blown 2.2 or a 2.1 stroker. Cost is swaying me to the 2.2 i have but it could always be sold i suppose to fund a stroker or a 2.5. Ive ruled 2.35 out due to cost mainly and its a road car so will be sticking with current supporting mods just changing the block. |
2.1 and 2.3 use the same crank if I remember right so use you block and forged pistons and get stroker rods for it it will be great
|
Yes they both use a 79mm crank however piston size is different. For a 2.1 a 2.0 block can be used no problem
For a 2.3 you need a 2.2 block or a destroked 2.5block or a relinered block I have forged internals for a 2.2 block and the block but its 75mm crank, maybe just stick with what i have due to costs. Hopefully somebody out there will be running a 2.1 or 2.2 with a 321T to get some feedback. |
I would go for the 2.2 block its a good increase in cc and it would suit a 321T. should be good spool up too. Just my opinion.
|
For a pure road car the 2.5 is hard to beat, the torque is immense.
However I love the 2.0, also a 2.1 is a good compromise, at a price I find acceptable. IMHO dunx |
any graphs for the turbo on a 2.1?
|

Cracking turbo on a 2.0 - not mapped a 2.1 with one on yet but always does the biz on whatever engine :thumb:
|
^^ What's the best hp you've seen on a 2.0 & what was the spec (main items)?
Ta, TX. |
Mine made 481/450 on a 2.0 forged cdb with sti5heads running 2bar and 10lit meth to a full tank.Goes like stink :)
|
Some good results there chaps, well i sold the 2.2 on and got myself a 2.5 so we will see how it fairs on 97 ron in the new year.
