Puffy: My ultimate goal is 200kW at the wheels (not sure why, just sounds like a good number to shoot for!) It's got a long way to go. Very Happy

To get that I imagine I'll need to be running 15psi+, which means upgrading the pistons and head gasket. OTOH the 205 I hear already has metal head gasket and hypereutectic pictons, so on top of all the other goodies it has... But there's a few things I can do to the current equipment for now anyway (exhaust/FMIC), while I start looking for this halfcut.

BTW this is the car: http://www.focal.net.au/185.jpg
