Bulletproofing a Beta Motor.
I was thinking about buying myself another 2.0L Beta Motor and building it up from bottom to top. I was just wondering what the best modifications would be to make it bulletproof. Is SharkRacing ever going to carry con-rods, pistons, etc. for the 2.0L Beta? My goal is about 250-300WHP. Would I have to build the motor different for it to be better for Nitrous or Turbo? Thanks.

You're looking at reinforcing the motor across the board man! Do a forums search, you're gonna find so much info on this it'll drown you LOL!!!

For 250-300 hp all you really need is better pistons. That's it.
Con rods are probably good atleast to 300 and probably 400 hp. The block is good to 600+ hp.
Crank is good to around 600 to 600+ hp.

Go with Ross for the pistions and Crower for the rods.
That's all the bulletproofing you need for 300 Wheel HP.

Anyone know any of the information or maximum possible amounts for these piston specifications?
1. Bore Size
2. Crankshaft Stroke
3. Rod Length
4. Engine Type
5. Head Type
6. Head CC
7. Amount heads have been milled
8. Valve Diameters
9. Intake valve location when on the seat as compared to the surface of the head (flush, amount recessed, or amount proud).
10. Camshaft lift at split overlap when piston is at T.D.C.
11. Type of Racing
12. Type of fuel to be used
13. Will Nitrous or Forced Induction be used, and in what amount
14. Type of rings you plan to use
15. Type of pins you wish to buy, or if you wish to use your own pins, you must tell us the diameter and length of your pins
16. Options that you wish to add (Lock Removal Indents, Internal Milling, etc.)
19. Gasket thickness and block height (amount block has been milled.)
20. Type of rods
Whats the max bore size before you lower the 600+ WHP limit?
I know HyundaiProject.com is doing something similar.
Does Crower have a Con-Rod that will fit the 2.0 beta or will that have to be custom manufactured also?

Crower carries 2.0L beta rods. They to not "stock" them, but they have all the specs necessary. It takes them 4-6 weeks to make a set.
Ross has all the specifics of the stock pistions, and info for overboring, and can make a set to order for you in about 4-6 weeks. Call them and as for Darius (Dar-re-us)
Max overbore is .050" or 1 mm. That is still good for 600 WHP.
In regards to all of your questions, you would have to work all of them out yourself off the stock information available at www.hmaservice.com and whoever is working on your motor.
For example:
Deck milling...that's up to you and whoever is boring/milling the block and possibly head. The block deck should be milled to level before the cylinders are bored out. The head deck can be milled to increase compression, but this must be accounted for in rod length or you may end up smacking your nice new pistions into your valves!

You might want to look into upgrading your axles as well, just to be on the safe side. Driveshaftshop.com can help you out, I have heard of a Tiburon that snapped an axle with somewhere around 300hp, I'm not sure exactly the full story.
