@ Karlos, im not sure what the power is in the s1, im just going by what Karl Norris told me when he was finshed with it. He said it would be touching 200bhp, but i`ve never had it on a rolling road, but it is quick

Touching 200bhp it's probably on a stock T3 then, they can do around 190bhp give or take a bit if really pushed and with a good IC, or could be a bigger one just not on it's limits.

Rods and pistons no, more fuel yes (as in my first post) MFI will not be able to fuel for that much so EFI with the correct size injectors would be needed, or could go oldschool and use a 5th injector.
Pistons will take 300bhp and rods are on their limit at about 240bhp.
