Totally agree with you Mervil, given your bad luck why not make the best of it and get a **** off big bhp engine dropped back in.

Which engine did you go for in the end?

It's a surprise

Nah, 2.1 Stroker but not sure what turbo yet!! Thinking of the S206 which, in Martyn's car at Engine Tuner has made 505bhp

Merv you really make me smile mate

If only everyone could find the silver lining in a poor situation, the world would be a much better place!! Frankly i think you are a bit nuts but in the best possible way

Looking forward to trying to keep up with you

Good choice of engine especially with the S206 from what I have read on both threads, now what is Bonzee going to do so that he can keep up with you?

Thats just a couple of callouts for you then.

And to think I was going to be happy with around 380'ish BHP, that should give the RS4's something to think about.

Haha! Cheers Ian! To quote my mrs, 'If you're going to have a new engine, you may as well pay the extra and get a better one!' good girl!

Good boy Ty you know it makes sense, you certainly won't be disappointed. Jarvis' is a great car, both for power and spool. His head will be swelling now reading this.

Excellent choice of engine and the S206 turbo seems great value for money, which should spool up nicely from 3500 rpm with your AVCS heads. Looking at Enginetuner's graph the power delivery is brutal with a nice large power band.
Your going to have one scary motor
