Properly sorted and mapped with six uprated injectors and a proper ecu rather than piggybacked?

What's with the 190 cams giving less power though? And would this be the case with the 270cams properly timed?

I'm assuming he had the decompression plates made in order to run more boost, 6 uprated injectors and decent management would be a good start, but the bhp gained versus £££ spent doesn't look to healthy.

I could put a t-series in it but where's the fun in that? I lose the nice v6 noise lol.

Nah it never is a healthy ratio though as Adam says!

I'm just thinking of what I can do.
Forced induction torque is a nice feeling lol. And would the wsr mani really get that?
And didn't he have a lot of problems getting it running properly as well.

Apparently the one that the seller built is the blue MK2 (the youtube link in the listing) which has also blown up. Such a shame, a supercharged V6 is certainly appealing but for that sort of money and work (full engine strip down basically to fit the decomp plates) I'd want some reliability.
That said, if its not a daily and just a fun weekend car then go for it I say!

Regarding putting a T series in you might gain 20 bhp for lets say £1000 (Engine, gearbox, drive shafts, custom loom etc) With this, if the claims are correct and you can do the work yourself (of which there will be a lot) then you could gain 60 bhp for £2000, look at it that way and it kind of makes sense... until you realize it will probably only last a few thousand miles like the other charged ones have done.

The ratio looks a lot healthier when the manufacturer takes the hit on development costs.

sold already?

mine was probably the greatest mod i've ever done. but took a lot of cash to get the power. sounded great, ran great, drove great. couldn't really ask for more tbh.

I meant on his pricing.
