hi people just a quick question how far can i push a sti8 block to with supporting mods,i am looking at a sti8 short block from matt at poleposition
but wanted to see how far i could push it im looking for around 450-500
any adivse would be much appriated also is it the 2ltr or 2.5

 

Just gone a similar route. The block I am reliably informed the block is fine to 450. But I am happy with the 400 it is throwing out.

 

yea I'm just trying to find out I would be happy with around 450 with either a sc46 or md321t

 

I ran around the 500 mark for a while on my STI8 Type UK, no issues whatsoever, taken it off the road now for the next round of upgrades

 

STi8 is a 2.0ltr block mate and will happily run 450+ all day long on a road based car.
