stroker motors
I know this isnt about a mustang stroker motor, but I figured some of the more experienced guys might know.
I have the stock 2.0 4G63 in my talon. Im now putting in a 2.4 stroker motor in with Mahle pistons, and eagle rods.
For the guys who have stroked their motors, what differences did you notice? Remember, I have the turbo model, so Im not sure what I can expect. I am going with 8.5 to 1 pistons, vs. the stock 7.8 to 1 cast pistons. Input appreciated!

RE: stroker motors
I never had a stroker motor but since it gives you a longer stroke, you would have more low end torque...lots more!
Sorry if that's not much help but maybe somone with a stroker engine could be of better help.
Not to be rude but why not ask this on one of those ricer boards?

RE: stroker motors
well before we talk about what youll feel from added stroke, your engine has just been increased in displacement by 20% and compression went up 20%. that right there is going to spell power. you increased the stroke so basically think of it as increasing the length of the stroke on a bike you pedal, the longer the pedals the easier it feels to move the bike, this is greater torque. you MIGHT see a decrease in rev speed or redline because just like the bike example the longer the pedals the quicker it accelerates but the overall speed is less at the top end. THIS IS NOT ALWAYS THE CASE... but it is just a very basic principle, since you rebuilt the motor you might have done other things to it to help compensate for the slow revving nature of stroker motors. you should see a good 50% or more increase in power with a turbo setup.
dont forget one more thing, since compression is higher you must be careful you dont pre-ignite afterall you are running under boost.
and something for you to know is since your displacement has increased, so will your exhaust gases which could mean better spool up time and again, more power.
keep up the good work, hope this helps.
