i am running circa 400bhp@30psi, i use the car everyday, it has done about 8k miles on this engine, it starts every morning, i ring its kneck everytime i drive it, its got a 205 block that apparently should of thrown itself around the engine bay, the diff is still holding out (but i don't launch it that hard) the gearbox is also holding out albeit a little whiney now (not surprising seeing as they have done 90k)!

Just get one with an engine that has been put togethor not thrown togethor and they are good strong engines, its like any car you drive, you get brutal with it, it will break, you keep on top of it and they last really well

only down side is it drinks fuel like a bastard, however speak to stu@msd as his closed loop thing has resolved this issue

HTH
