Not a bad price, bit concerned about the power it's making for it's spec though...

THE ENGINE MODS
low compression mahle pistons and rings,polished ported and gas flowed EFI head,kent cvh 35 camshaft,a custom chip,bosch 803 dark green injectors,cosworth engine management, stage 3 hybrid t34 turbo(only coverd about 3,000 miles) with a new
-34 actuator,and a new bailey breather,pace front mount aluminium intercooler with twin fans,pace alloy radiator,4inch magnex stainless exhaust,206BHP,211 lbft,23PIS MAX BOOST, perfomance proved and set up by TORQUE OF THE DEVIL.

Even if that was at the wheels it's shit for a T34, well in fact it impossible at that boost!

I think he is saying it possibly has a high/low boost setting perhaps? and made the 206hp at a lower boost setting?

Perhaps... but why would you say 206bhp proven by TOTD if it has a higher boost setting, why wouldnt you have run that and been saying about it in your ad??
My guess is it doesnt have a T34!

You could be right, unless it was rr'd on the old t3 and has since had the t34 fitted as it says in the add it hasnt done many miles on this turbo.

The management system does not have any of my parts and tbh looks like it could do with some upgrades. Its doesnt surprise me that it made low power with a cut and shut dizzy with an MFi manifold and MFi throttle body. With that engine spec and decent triggers and map i would get much better figures than that, even more so with the T34. Id make that power with a std engine and turbo.

However it does look nice and being black the best colour could be worth buying and doing the upgrades that are required to get the most out of it.

just thought i would reply as it's my car ur all talking about, for one it has got a t34 on it and yes ur right it should have better bhp than it has,it was pushing 231bhp & 256 lbft but that was befor it was stored away for 4yrs now it's back on the road,took it to TOTD,they put a new -34 actuator on it,and gave it a rolling road tune,but they said if i want more power out of it, it would need a re map, but they dont re map cosworth management,it still gose well and sounds mint

ALL the right bits there... but

My last S2 made 210hp @ 11psi on a T34 & MFI, weird figures for twice the boost

too much boost for a t34, and so little power, you can get that outta a standard engine
nice car tho, and i remember the feature in pf, and ff

i think he is refering to the mfi TB which attaches to the inlet manifold.
