What was the aim of the engine? More power, driveability, just a change of some components? I can't remember

Good luck anyway

Different block (non-turkish) and turbo, for more horse power.

Prob the most concise and accurate post I've seen from you.

And it made me giggle too.

Best of luck with the motor - is 6xx, 7xx or 8xx horses most likely?
