Is the B20A7 the ~150bhp motor?
:lol: She's not quite the £100 car anymore, but it's nice to be able to build her back in stages :)

And yep, the 150bhp. I quite fancy sticking her on the dyno at the national meet to see where she's at actually, but she's still an old car and after my last experience on a dyno I don't fancy pushing her that hard :?

Wash your mouth out!!! I'll never turbo!...

I do fancy you engine when it becomes spare though, for a bit of tinkering ;-) :twisted:

Ok, ON! :lol:

You're right though, supercharger not common in B20a! There have been a few custom jobs, but nothing consistent.

Turbo it is then I guess! :hurr:

I think I'll start with a decent exhaust manifold, down pipe and centre section and then look into a bit of head and inlet manifold work, but really I have another project I should really be cracking on with first ;-) :lol:

Still, I'm glad you plan to do a few more bits to this engine - it could be immense! ;)
