head is still on hydraulic lifters i see no reason to change as yet, as for power anything over 300bhp i will be happy with it should however see between 350-400bhp if all goes well
i will have a 3 map switch on the car so i can chnage the boost levels etc if its to lary for track so maybe 250bhp-300bhp-350bhp settings. i will see what jim reckons at jkm |

Great car, shame that the map JDM put on it was a steaming pile of shite and melted his engine.
Should think the power figure can safely be taken with a fucking massive dollop of salt too.
Nothing that cant be fixed next time though.
In true VS fashion Gary is going to have a crack at mapping himself this time rather than pay someone who does a bodged up job on it like he did last time _________________ Under 400bhp makes baby jesus cry.
