as far as the built engine goes, i have been told it will last pretty muchas stock will, its built to take nearly 900 whp, there are guys in the states running the same block without the head work that have done 50k, so maybe i wont get the 125k out of this motor but its a trial at the end of the day, pot luck really, as some f20c have gone with alot less miles than my current stock motor, which i have to say is still going, for how much longer who knows, we will proberbly never find out sadly

Whilst i'm sure that it will be a very strong engine i can't see any 2L engine surviving long term producing that much power.

My question is can u get this car insured in UK with this kind of....insane F1 power?Have u got a quote for it?
Whats the torque like?There must be lots..lots of wheel spin!!!the power will probable shred the tyre rather than translate into linear acceleration!!!???

If you're willing to pay the premiums you can get insurance for just about anything the premium will be up to 5gs I reckon though . Looking forward to seeing this though

insurance no i have not, if you are an insurance broker boaba01 and charging 5 grand i wont be coming to you
i have spoken to a few companys and what the majority are interested in is whats on the car, ie like you s/c guys, the ad ons from stock, and have not been fussed about BHP,
friends with similar powered motors albiet supra's are not to expensive
its all an experiement and project, and there are always going to be issues to do with the build insurance etc and just have to take it as it comes

yeah, u def need to swap over to one of my turbo kits.....
This picture shows a supercharged dyno graph (9psi) vs my turbo kit on phils car at 14 psi. The turbo's power range demolishes the supercharger.
Im sure u can sell your SC kit. you already have your engine management/fuel system. all you would need is the basic turbo kit.
