are u in need of a bottom end

mk3cab

good to here your keeping the 1.9 as in my opinion they are the best mod forget the 2.1 zvh and all that (although im running one lol)

Smartdj.

iTrader: (2)

do you no how much power the average 1.9 turbo makes on the rollers...i hope more than 200bhp without being unsafe..if not im going to be disapointed..but its not going to be a crazy build..just average..im lookin for 250bhp with torque to match

mk3cab

when i had mine i ran 230bhp @10psi and the compression was down 2bar in the one cylinder (bought it like it. i didn't know what the problem was till i stripped it down. melted piston). i was running a stage 3 head, cam ect. but i would get a fifth injector if to want to run more, it will be capable of 250 quite easy with intercooler and stuff. i have a fifth injector controller lying about somewhere ill check it still works if your interested.

Machine mart, you will get a perfectly good crane for £150, maybe even a collapseable one if my memory serves me correctly.
