LCE -EFI Power Package

Anyone has experience with these? They claim 20-30 hp, which is a huge increase considering that stock the 22RE is pushing 110 on a good day. Its pretty expensive, but I'm thinking baout buying their headers for $370, maybe a G for the whole thing is not too bad.

Its probably not worth it, but at the same time the 22re doesnt pull lol. I had the LCE header, the proflow exhaust, supra afm, kn filter. You could feel more torque. An honest opinion from me is to not but the exhaust, not worth it and it sounds like garbage i thought. turbo is not a bad idea

You can toss as much money into a 22re as you want, however the bottom line is that it's a 4 cylinder tractor engine. It's reliable and tough, but if you really want more power you should swap in a different engine.

I glanced at their EFI power package, seems a little pricey to me. I'm going to get one of their headers though in the next few days, I'm hoping it will give me a little more power off the line and that's about it.

Have to agree with this. Our little 4 hole power plants were not built for big HP and Torque. These little engines really shine off road at lower rpm and DD with fuel millage.

You won't see those kinda power gains from LCEs kits. Forced induction is the only way you're gonna see major gains on a 22re.

I disagree. For ~$1K you can make 200hp+.

IF, and this is a big if, you can tune a turbo motor and have the hook up on some good parts.

I'd rather spend more money on a 3.4 swap with a supercharger than spend over a grand on the 22re. Like guys said, low end torque tractor engine that goes everywhere

i would like a 3.4 swap as well, except its will cost me a fortune since i have no tools, time or the experience to do an engine swap. I'm estimating if I were to do a 3.4 swap, the whole thing will probably cost me around $4,000 if I pay someone else to do it. Not going to happen. If i swap anything its going to be the auto tranny. I'm just going to get the headers
