If we are talking straight replacements with no other work/mapping required, a vf24/28/29 would be about it.

On a serious note martyn, have you had much dealing with the sc38 or sc40? Been toying with the idea of one of the two but would like a real opinion on them and not biased reviews

Yes, they're both great. I'd go with the 38 if you're not looking to stroke it yet as it will spool beter on your factory standard 2 litre engine.
