Engine was dynod at 450 when charlie bought it new from harvey holding 26 psi its currently holding 22 in my car so its safe to say it will prob be a good 400. It made 380 bhp at the wheels in charlies 4x4 mk1 focus cossie.Its had a new set of pistons bearings ect then put in mine. I done the coil pack conversion to it for the 3 door
