I've booked my Starlet in for a rolling road run on monday. I've never put a car on the rollers before & have no idea how much power it'll make, so place your bets now & I will report back monday afternoon on my return.

It'll never make as much as you think, or it will make more........lol
Mine was RR'd recently highlighted all sorts of issues but eventually made 155bhp atw at low boost. Should be 185+ atw when fuelling and boost issues are finally sorted!
I'd say somewhere around 110-120bhp? I have no knowledge of Toyotas, no idea what a 4k engine is (wiki told me)

I remember putting my shonky old RV8 powered kit car on the rollers, it made exactly what Rover said it should even after nearly 20 years, sounded brilliant through the sidepipes as well. |

Volvo back as my main squeeze, more boost and some interior goodies on the way.

Taking it torque tune near Ollerton, better known for his bike stuff, but has had a fair amount of experience of Starlets over the years with grass track cars.

I'd say somewhere between 90 and 100hp looking at your specs. It looks like it's just a little less extreme (but only just a little) then my old engine, which was dyno'd at 105 hp before i got it (and broke it in spectacular fashion).

Well, just got back & I was pleasantly surprised & it has shown 85bhp at the wheels & 102 at the flywheel. Still more work tp do, but really pleased for a 1st run without a proper setting up session.
