I need to get my car on the rolling road and find out exactley what I'm running but thought I'd see what you guys thought I might be running I've got a normal 1.6 CVH bored out to a 1750cc with mahle forged pistons, ARP bolt Kit, group A headgasket, and a stage 3 T3 turbo running 21psi.

Wow a big increase to 1750 with overbore.
The cylinder walls will be paper thin.

What shop decided it was safe to over bore a 1600 cvh that far?
A 4.0mm overbore is very unsafe.

If its on mfi it depends on the condition of your metering unit as thats the main factor with old rs turbos! my mfi xr2 turbo ran 237 horse but that was with a 5th injector kit! some people say they have had 220 horse without the injector kit but again it depends on your metering unit! 180bhp set up correct is still a quick-ish road car
