theres a whole host of things missing from that spec you'll need as a base aswell.
i know i cant decide what boost i can run as every engine is different hence me saying whatever more the engine will allow...but i know CR will be around 7.6 maybe 7.5 but i will do more research into that as i dont know many people running the setup i have just described...

the spec i gave was just a general one of the main parts you need...i have listed a turbo, intercooler, box, bottom end plans, head plans and a VERY general fuelling setup - well basically EFI off a FRST

so vrooom...if i decided to go for a ZVH with a 2L bottom end...would i hit the figure then? i remember John hitting 28xbhp cant remember exact figure...was that down to the head not being able to flow enough air or something else?

not a dig by the way..am just generally interested as i have heard a few people talking about 300hp CVH's
