he forgets to mention they'll make 570hp for only a few minutes before they implode
Thats so true

Ah yes the good old 2 x 400+bhp FRS they built

Always remember the mag features for them where the engines were described by the mags as being "bulletproof" & "built up from genuine unbreakable WRC parts" including cgi block, etc

Funny how those 2 FRS with their "bulletproof" & "indestructable" engines have been rebuilt god knows how many times normally after a rolling road run or after being taken back to EA on the back of a lorry after they expired at one of the few thrash days they attended with them

Oh & before anyone complains about people being anti EA i've also had experience of them - was one of the first companies i took my FRS to when i bought it in early 2006 - asked them to tune the car & they fitted a bleed valve & titted about with the actuator - 2 weeks later at a rolling road day i found that the car was running 30+ psi on my standard gt25 turbo & afr's were so bad car was risking melting the internals

Lets just say that was the day i started seeking the advice of better tuners & people like Ian Howell
