Pulsar GTI-R with a 1200 hp Turbo SR20

Akin Uykun owns a very fast 1993 Pulsar GTI-R built by Powertune Australia for drag racing and roll racing. A big part of the car’s performance is the turbocharged SR20 inline-four producing 1200 hp at the hubs on 45 psi of boost and E85 fuel. The motor features a Bullet billet block with forged internals topped by a ported SR20VE head with custom Powertune camshafts, upgraded valves, fire ring, and a mechanical fuel pump. Boost is provided by a Precision 7275 turbocharger assisted by a 200-shot nitrous system. The drivetrain uses a Holinger sequential transmission for a Mitsubishi EVO with an adapter plate and a Nissan GTR R200 rear differential with upgraded axles. Akin’s best quarter-mile is a 9.2 sec at 163 mph with a goal of the low-8’s. Listen to Andre Simon from High Performance Academy talk to Akin about the car and motor.
