Ah sweet, cool info

I'd think most components are good for 240-260, it's a well known fact that the ZS opens up well to a couple of breathing mods. The reason it was the 180 and not the 190 as it would have been stepping on the ZT 190's shoes.

So presuming the ZS started off as 190bhp, a 50-70bhp increase isn't massive figures to be pushing but getting on the brink of having to upgrade a lot of other components.

A couple of small fast spooling turbo's would be ideal for this application. However once it's up and running you can have the potential to go utterly mad on it if you desire and can upgrade others components and push big figures (forged pistons/rods, uprated head bolts, bigger turbo's etc). I think without a doubt you will need an aftermarket management system anyway, again ECU's are still very foreign to me.
