Black top would be the best all rounder to use.

Depends on how deep your pockets are, how much power you want, and how much you want to account for in future when you want more. Blacktop is a good starting point for a turbo build. What is it going in?

lol, as Micky said it's an F1 engine which has nothing at all to do with road going zetecs, it was just a marketing exercise.
