Not only are you going to have something with an unuseable amount of power, you're going to ruin the car doing it.

Explain your retarded theory please. :blink:
This forum is full of weirdos.

Not full of weirdos, the weirdos just speak up more often than the rest of us!
Some people would say putting anything other than a 4A in a AE86 is ruining it, but some of us appreciate other peoples ideas.
Twin turbo V8 AE86, not my cup of tea, but it an interesting idea and I would like to see the result, keep us posted!!

I myself have been flamed for my approach to my own conversion. I have a 3sgte in my AE86 (for those who dont know, its toyota's 2 litre twin cam turbo from the gt4 celica) and it was enough of a headache. To fit a ls2 in there you're gonna have to do something incredible as far as modding the engine bay, firewall, etc. A standard ls2 puts out 300kw easily, twin turbo's are up around the 440kw! Have you considered the following: How are you going to deliver that power to the ground? Drivetrain, clutch, transmission, diff, and lastly tyres are all goin to fail without you spending $$$$$$$$$$$$ on upgrading these areas, in what is quite essentially a 25yr old corolla!! You're going to add a heap of weight over the fron end, which in turn will reduce the weight distributuion to the rear end, and probably result in you sitting in the one spot either through lack of traction or breaking whatever fails first in your drivedtrain. If you really want a v8 in an ae86, why not toyota's own v8, matched to the supra gearbox etc. Heaps of torque, not adding all the weight, and a hell of a lot cheaper too.
I think the people who are so hung up on the 4a motor are stuck in the past. Yeah they're a ripper motor, but to say that 86's should only have a hard revving na 1600 in them or else its ruined just showes people's ignorance and misconception.

If I could put a v12 in a lotus elise I would, have you ever seen an old boxy renault with twin turbo v6 competing in b class rally? I have and they drive like go-karts.
The rest of your comments are shit, what your really saying is gee, I wish I had a deep wallet like his.
"How are you going to deliver that power to the ground?" Easy, its callled throttle control, have you ever seen footage of old f1 cars, they had 1.4ltr with a truck turbo making 1,000 horsepower.
"If you really want a v8 in an ae86, why not toyota's own v8, matched to the supra gearbox etc. Heaps of torque, not adding all the weight, and a hell of a lot cheaper too."
Why not a nissan? Or ford?
And also your comment about turbos making 140 kw, goes to show your nothing than a keyboard warrior.
