"To answer your original question the bottom end had been strengthed with a set of custom Mahle low compression pistons taking the c/r down to 8.6:1, also bought a set of crower con-rods again had to be custom made, arp bolts, the head has been uprated with stronger valves, valve guides, springs, high quality gaskets basically helps keep things reliable.

Like i said before a few friends an family helping me do the work, the mapping is done by a mate of my cousin, his no pro but seems to be quite clued up an willing to give things a go. Once its all back up an running i will certainly go to a real company an get it mapped professionally but his done a good job so far.
