I know of one engine with a vf23 that made ~330bhp on an engine dyno.

I think it was running circa 1.4 - 1.5 bar on a 2.2 engine... Not 100% sure.

If it was a vf23 based hybrid, it would be a "hybrid", not a "vf23"... you asked about the "vf23".

No offence taken dude... I hoped the smiley would have made this clear...

I am not 100% sure about all other mods... but I am sure it was a stroked 2 litre block and I suspect it would have had a free'er flow exhaust system and possibly equal length headers.
