high powered NA!

As far as I know, you can get about 230-250hp, but only if you fit the GE with a modded bolt-on turbo setup. Anyway, I don't think it would be worth it to mod your 7MGE because:MKIII N00b said:
1. You can't upgrade it
2. You can't have more than 12psi of boost, as the GE has a higher internal pressure than the GTE. So if you tried to go over 12 your engine would likely explode.
So in the you'd still be better off getting a turbo. With most N/A's what you see is what you get, barring a port polish and lightweight pistons, rods, and crankcase (But all that would be exponentially more expensive the finding a well-kept 7MGTE).

damn...i just want the damn response and no lag. i know there are forums about this, but thats all i ask for! hehe.
High Powered NA? is this an Oxymoron?

Take a look at Defiant 7M's build up if you're serious about getting power from an NA this is the way to go but it's always going to be a HUGE outlay of $$$ as there is little to no aftermarket for NA motors so going Turbo is the cheap option/best bang for the $.

i know...but i dont really want to go there unless i have to. i just want to know the highest amount someones ever gotten, oh yeah and about the response, how do i go about getting great response?
Tight AR Ball bearing Turbo, I have a GT30 with a .63ar I used to run on my old dog 7M and it made boost just about off idle no Lag.
Yes it was doomed by a Muppet Machinst when it was bored and decked!
He'd screwed a lifting jig into the Cam belt tensioner bolt hole which is directly in line with #1 cylinder, this pressed the bore in a bit they bored it and when he removed the jig it popped out and the bore had a 50c piece low spot where the rings couldn't seal.....
Had blowby from day1

Well, in all honesty, the NA was built for a DD. they run for just about ever.
and require not a whole lot of major maintence.
with that said. these engines werent built for mainstream power.
If u want power, fly down to aussie land, and beat up ian and allan. and get them to work on it.

If you want power, go turbo, if you want a headache, go turbo without a MHG, but eitherway, go turbo...
The N/a engine is just not going to get you the responce you want.
Listen to IJ, and do what he said, it will work, even if he is an upside down aussie!

If you replace the pistons/cam/crank/connecting rods on the NA, how is it different then the turbo? They both have the same displacement don't they?

Not true. There are lots of upgrades you can do. But your right, its very expensive relitive to the gains.
12psi? Where did you get that number? I have seen many engines that are "not supposed to be boosted" hold plenty of boost and HP. Its all in the tune.
yeah. like all these other threads always ends with "TURBO IT IS" BUT THERE arent that many 7mgtes to go around...
Then buy some turbo pistions slap on the turbo electronics and turbo injectors,
and dont forget the turbo manifold and the turbo plus the intercooler then you have a 7mge-t that will make more then 250hp.
Look around on ebay for pistions theres been some good deals on there. If your interested I got some turbo pistions from a JDM block.
