    Yep. 92mm will get you to a shade under 2200cc's.

    i think cliff got the capacity with some clever selection of crank, rods and pistons?

    update:
    i was wrong - Fast Fours article, date/year unknown:
    -16R Rods
    -22RE dished (92.5mm) (resulting in 6.8:1 comp ratio)
    -eccentric ground 18R crank to add 3.5mm stroke
    total engine capacity lifted to 2.4 litres.

    note: he is running a very efficient W2A intercooler and boost is a maximum of 21psi.

    i'd prefer something with some compression thanks.... EWW!!

    My 18R-GTE will end up around the 8-9:1 compression ratio, much better

    Besides, what difference is it going to make if you take an extra half a millimetre out of the bore? There is well enough there to have a 93mm bore with a turbo.

    I really do wonder how the hell he ground the crank to gain 3.5mm of stroke

    If he had done it the conventional way of just offset grinding the crank he would have had to use +.320" bearings and ground the crank .180" below its original size.

    I guess 16R rods have a smaller big end.

    16/18/20/21/22R big end bearings are all the same

    Its a mystery then. Unless its a custom billet crank. which would have cost 5 g's. Or dramatically resized the 16r rods.

    Or the magazine article was completely wrong. It certainly wouldn't be the first time.
