I loved how mine used to handle on track with Ahmed track spec springs. Felt very planted even in the wet at Donington.

Should be 40-50 bhp up from what it was (around 380) Head flow will become a problem. Be nice to see 440 and the same sort of torque figure but i think that will be pushing it. 420 is my guess.

3071r should be interesting, i'm thinking of going this route on my audi s2.
I've heard of people running 440+bhp on one of them but this is the first time i've heard of one being run on a cossie. Look forward to hearing how you get on with it, especially with the internal wastegate as mine comes external as standard.
