how much is to much?
ive got a uk spec turbo 98,just purchased racing clutch and flywheel.in the new year plan to up the power by taking it to alan jefferys in plymouth.the car has done 77000 and has full service history,would like to get 330bhp from it but dont want to blow the engine or gear box to bits.can this model handle that on standard internals and drivetrain?

Its a slippery slope, trust me!!
Engine internals will be good for 350bhp.
Gearbox starts to be risky at 300+
Mine uk 5 speed went at 320 bhp and again a fortnight later. I then changed to a six speed box. Car is a 1999 uk classic. Although it's somewhat changed since those days.
