You should at least have a look at it on a dyno but turbos will be hotter than an sc.

Looks sweet! Will be interesting to see what its pushing when completed!

On another note, given the cost of the above - the SR20 engine seems to be a popular swap as the tuning potential for that engine is greater and cheaper! Your thoughts?

Yeah but Honda is a Honda, should have the Honda heart not from the Nissan. If you thinking that way the RX7 engine is much lighter and easier to make a lot of power.

When a standard block will push out double the factory output, who in their right mind would spend the money on a replacement block? Complete waste of money.

Not sure, if it just the one we have built or involve working with it then is around 12-13 of them so far.

Where about in West Wales are you mate?

I'm based in Bangor but frequent the West quite often, family in Pennal, Aber and then as far as Builth.

Also considering moving from working in Manchester to the West, should be a fairly quite like as a Paramedic in most parts
