mine is running 218bhp at the wheels at 18psi, its a simmilar bottom end to yours but only a stage 2 head but with newman cam, im running siemens injectors out of a rover 220 turbo, they are 440cc flow @ 3 bar, im using emerald management and a stage 3 t3, the only fault with my setup is the turbo is too small, spins up nice and early but its all out of puff at 4500rpm

Spend some money on the head. A stage 1,2,3 is jigged to work with a CVH not with the Zetec bottom end. Most ZVH builds run out of guff about 5500rpm as the power and torque just vanishes
