It's not a case of how much you can get it's more a case of how much do you want.

There are so many different engine choices CVH, ZVH or full blown Zetec turbo.

Probably boils down to budget more than anything, but i've heard of

300+bhp 1.6 cvh RSTs (Tims grey one)
320+bhp 1.9cvh RSTs (Jamie Goings / Ollies)
250-500bhp (Sunnys old spec engine?) Zetec RSTs

Anything around there has got to be on the cards, but then you probably have to outlay quite a lot of cash to get there.

Thats JUSt then engine though. No turbo, management, intercooler etc.

Once you step over the 220-240 barrier it starts getting very expensive for little gain. 300+ is another level again.

Hows yours coming on with the new mods? Looked very nice when I see it at P.T.S. last year on that rr day.
