So moderate boost will see that easily enough. Any more than 240 bhp would probably need better internals though from what I have read. I will be going for 230-240 bhp and I’m told by supposed experts these engines are fine up to 250 but we will find out , if it blows Up then I will know they’re wrong Quote
BugMan Posted March 27, 2018 Posted March 27, 2018 Just to be clear Craig, you're not having my engine, lol Quote

I've still got most of the bits to turbo mine, but not got round to it yet. What engine management do you plan to run? Quote
