As Bodski says what's the spec to get that torque?
I've got 427 bhp and 462 lb/ft on my built 2.5ltr and that pulls like a train,watch out for your gearbox

I did wonder if it was a maha RR as when mine was done it qouted bhp for power and NM for torque.

Figures are correct it's a group A rally car,HUGE torque,compared to BHP because of the set up, due to the 34mm restrictor.

so is the engine being fitted to a road car, if so ditch the restrictor and get it remapped.

the cost is be understandable if it a full group a rally engine, but is it in a rally car?
if so, are you saying you are buying a group a car with no knowledge on them?
