Why post it in the wrong section? That would be an M20 engine.

Standard injectors won't go to 400bhp or anywhere near, 220-230 IMO tops!

Standard ECU - think again.

Your gonna need a standalone ecu and about 42lb injectors to run that sort of ponies
you can just bolt it on and expect it to be fine that sort of horse power needs a spot on tune other wise it will just go pop it's more than capable of running it but I suggest u do more research on the matter I'm more than half way through doing my own but I've got years of experiance with turbo motors
