[Dayna2.3]

Dear PZEV Forum Members,

I wonder if you can offer an opinion on the power ratings of the 2003 2.3L PZEV engine?

Is it 148 h.p. @ 5500 rpm and 152 ft lbs of torque at 4500?
or
145 h.p. @ 5750 rpm and 149 ft lbs of torque at 4250?
or
144 h.p. @ 5750rpm and 149 ft lbs or torque at 4200?

I asked Ford Customer Service, but they did not want to "speculate" on this issue.

Thanks in advance for your opinions!

Regards,

I think it was 148/152 for the 2003, then Ford de-rated to to the 145/149 for 2004. Is there a power difference? I don't know.

Good question. I'd like to know the real answer myself. But to tell you the truth, all the numbers being thrown around are actually within normal production variation and dyno measurement error anyway.

when ppl ask, i just say 150/150 to make it easy.

Not sure if it helps? but when I dyno'd my stock PZEV it ran a 127WHP and 135 lbs/ft TQ. So about 150HP and 160TQ would be safe to tell someone.
