give me a few months and ill let you know what i manage to get

Scotty Dog i do see what you mean about just buying a 170 as ive had one and they are a really good car but i will be honest, you need to wring their neck to get the power out of them and even then if you have one that prodices 170 your in luck. there are people on the FFOC that had standard well maintained 170's RR'd and managed 155bhp and even still the majorityof that only happens when the runner switches over at higher RPM.

im back in a 1.8 now enjoying the MPG for the time being but on the horizon sooner rather than later are GSXR750 ITB's, followed by ST170 full exhaust system and then Cams/vernier with Megasquirt going in there somewhere inbetween. 1.8 owners have managed 140 - 150 bhp on little more than the full 170 exhaust inc manifold so add the cams, vernier and bodies, cost still coming in at less than a 170 but with 170 eating power

i dont want to say what power im hoping for as i dont want to look like a male chicken when it dont hit that, a few RR sessions though when its all done to see what happens
