ha ha yeah that's a big shock i got. Although i should have been expecting that. After spending ~15g strengthening the engine i think i made an extra 40hp. But the hard work was done and i had a very strong car to work with. After that came the gt35 and a few new bits, a re tune and hey presto 450hp :-D

The thing is, when doing the build i never wanted to half arse do anything. what's the point? your only gunna blow it up, have to strip it and build it properly the second time. IMO Your always goin to want more horsepower so find out what your aim is and build your car around that. Aim a little bit higher even so you can run your desired power safer
