Default Sapphire Cosworth Costs

hi just would like to know how much is the average cost to tune a sapphire cosworth.

If i can get good enough money for my s1 after summer...the next step up would be a sapphire cosworth...4x4 is what i really would like.

so say if i come along a saph that is standard except for exhaust...air filter...what would be the general cost for a 330 bhp upgrade??

now i dont mean the cheapest i mean a good quality RELIABLE upgrade..so headgasket and fuel pump..(if needed) and how much should i expect to pay for a good map??

Does'nt include the head gasket , and i pressume it includes the setting up aswell , that's what they quoted me with all the parts fitted...

(stage 2chip)
(3 bar map sensor)
(actuator)
(injectors)

If you really want a new Gasket i have heard the ferriday copper gaskets are the dogs danglies...

A sierra cosworth 4x4 running 330hp will be perfect for everyday use , thats what they were designed for!!

If you get a low mileage example then the head gasket should be fine , when it goes fix it but not before, also when you have a low mile example other mechanical parts should be in good working order.

I would really spend the extra cash and go for a T34 with a .48 exhaust housing as well to get a genuine 330hp, this will bump the price of the conversion up but well worth it imo
