Gianttomato and Humble - fuck off. The potential of the 2XR goes well beyond 150 horses. I know someone with a turbo very streetable 300HP 22RE they regularly use for autocrossing. For your information, 150 horses and a nice fat torque curve can be easilly found on a regular 22RE by doing the exhaust/filter, a little head porting and a stage 2 TRD/delta/crane whatever cam, while keeping the engine's renound bulletproof reliability. If they are so utterly crap, why do so many people in the states bother working them? There is a racing company over there www.lcengineering.com that ONLY sell 2xR parts.
No, the 2xr engine's ain't powerhouses, they are SOHC engines that don't rev sky high and make a shitload of torque and will continue to do for for thousands and thousands of ks before a rebuild - and so what?
Ed-ma61 - The 22R heads have a swirl port design and don't flow so well. In the States, they put a 20R head (2.2litres) on a tall block (ie pre '85) 22RE block to make hybrid engines. The 20R head bolts right on, breathes a lot better than the 22R/E one (even with it's stock smaller valves), and as a nice bonus you get an instant 10:1 CR. The stock cam in the 2xR engines is also poor - drop a nicer cam in, maybee some nice carbs and you're away! EFI hybrids can be made too, but the head has to be welded/tapped to suit the EFI manifold. Unfortunately we don't really get the 20R here, and most 21Rs are of the swirl-port design too. (apparently the early 21R heads are like the 20R). I don't think we got the tall blocks here at all. I think 22RE heads can be made to flow as well as a 20R, it's just that the 20R does it stock whearas on the 22RE you have to invest in the head porting. From what I hear, the key to getting power out of the 22RE is in the head. You can go ahead and drop a cam in, but it's advised you have at leats a little porting done first.
My plans are to get my head ported & polished with maybee some +1mm oversize valves, a stage two cam and a larger Supra AFM to really wake up the engine. No, it won't be a 1GGTE, but it won't have cost me that much either.
FWIW there is a monster ra60 on Ebay at the moment with a highly worked 21R-C of all things!
