IIRC Tylerma got away with no engine mods bar a head rebuild, A-Tech M40B18 turbo manifold, downpipe, no IC, bigger injectors and MS.

170bhp or so

ChrisP had roughly the same but with an IC.

Search Tylerma and ChrisP for info but Ant is your man!

HTH, Mark

That was quick mate. You don't mess about. The drive home now must be a lot quicker.

Yeah mate
Just been with Ant and he's sorted out the ignition.

It feels really strong even with the 4k limiter but that should be off this weekend so I guess a bit of getting used to it now then.

Yeah more bunny chow and deffo a stroh rum or 2
