hmm , normally aspirated at 300 hp

well , i was always going turbo , but just in case i get stuck with installation , i can drop back on to one of these !!

http://homepage.ntlworld.com/david.slater133/motor.jpg

theyre a bit expensive like

2935cc stroked crank and 96mm bore , 320hk , twin 50s .

its the cylinder head thats the key here , its a special cast version available in sweden quite easily , from the chap who supplied my rods and pistons .

theres a vid somewhere , they sound bloody lovely .

this is the vid - this has a 16v head tho !

as you say, pricey......................but............................if you can afford that, then bang a supercharger on it as well and do the job properly!!

Jeez that would be torquey for a 4 pot!!

I went to the rallycross Superprix at Croft on Sunday, where there were some mad scandinavians, three/four S40's, a 240 saloon and most ridiculous a 940 saloon, but they went like the proverbial shovel launched s**t - Fantastic; a big thanks to them for making the journey.

If you want a supercharger then ebay is quite a good source. I've bought/sold several on there including several Mini M45s, Eaton M62s, M90s and the biggest was an Merc AMG twin rotor.

An M62 on low boost would work but most likely he M90 would suit you needs.

However I suspect you'd only be happy with a truck size turbo
