What engine do I want in my AE86?

First, Yes, the company will run the engine in bench/dyno to make sure their reputation is not damaged, since its a sponsor thing.

Hence my question about installation, my car is already running Red Top (from fwd corolla GTI) so it should be easy putting in a Black Top?

I think their budget is about 2000 Euro for an engine in this sponsor deal. A Tec-Art engine for 20000 Euro is not realistic haha

And YES haha since my car is THAT kind of car, why run anything else than 4AGE and not preserving the AE86 legacy? Like a 4AGZE just seem wrong in that car. And I already have a Skyline so Im not after a power monster. I want the 4AGE sound and history in my car.

I dont want to run a racing engine, it has to be fairly cheap to maintain and be a daily-driver-car with a spin on the track day occasionaly.

But if I want a Black Top, what do I tell them to buy when they contact their dealer in Japan? Any old Black Top will do? Any specific model? Year?

BT is your choice. YES, a tuned 16V can be more powerful, but no low end power and high fuel consumption. For a street car the BT is a better 150-155bhp. (Its NOT 165)
