Honda's new 1.2L Turbo (F12X Watercraft)

[Darkness_CA6]

Does anybody know anything about this motor yet? I'm interested in what kind of power output this could make.

Welcome to the forums!

thats definatly an interesting wee motor eh?

Very interesting bore and stroke!
<snip>

Engine Type 1235cc liquid-cooled dry-sump inline four-cylinder with intercooled turbocharger

Bore and Stroke 79.0mm x 63.0mm

Compression Ratio 8.5:1
Valve Train DOHC; four valves per cylinder
Carburetion PGM-FI with automatic enricher circuit
Ignition Computer-controlled digital with three-dimensional mapping
<snip>

would love to get my fingers on one for a city if it would fit
Even has factory forged internals!

Im guessing it has alot more horsepower and revs than it does torque.
Unlike the city ER motor, which is the other way around... long stroke smaller bore...

cheers for the link!

Oooooohhh yeah!!  :o
That's the business eh!
It's just screaming out to be dropped into a City. I wonder how much one could source a motor for??
Cheers for that and glad to have you onboard!

Wonder what it looks like? Any pics of the engine alone?

but it doesnt have cvcc... for what it would cost to purchase and install you could get way more than 165 hp out of the original motor... forged pistons and such, allthough it does have balance shafts and a morse timing chain... mmmmm morse chain
