    Excellent good to see that you've posted the info on the forum Jean, it sounded like a real beast when you spoke to me about it before and I can see why

    Haha yeah I got it running and rego, but it blew a coolant hose and now I'm waiting on a shipment of parts from the US to work on it. I actually think I may want something in particular I'll send you a PM.

    170hp, nice target I hope you can get to it with your car. What type of ECU programming are you thinking of using Jean?

    i have a mate who works for a logistics company who can get me some discounts.
    he sends from company to company. he cant send to private address but he helps me out because he sends to my dads factory . i forgot what the name is but when its all being shipped ill ask him.
    i send by the pallet not by parcel unless its really necessary.

    Wow, this should be awsome.

    What size will the engine be at the end of it? 2.1l?

    I cant wait to see the progress.

    actually i want to keep it 1.8l, 2l would give me an odd 200+hp witht he right rework. but the thing is if i make it a 2l the walls would be too thin for supercharging with alot of boost.
    so they will be more prone to cracking. which is the last thing i want.
    replacing engine block means alot more money.
    also how many people do you see keeping the engine stock ccm when doing up their engine?
    i want to be one of them.

    but i cant wait for pictures of it all either.
