PPP for me as well i think.

Had an e-mail from Prodrive yesterday as i have been chasing the PDF with all the info. Prodive are pointing me towards the 330S for spec and figures but i would like to see a bit more info before placing an order.

Huge torque improvment with the PPP and 330PS should keep me smiling for a while.

The problem is if you have the ppp and in six months you are chasing more power then you will have to go upgrade again. I think its best to just go for it in the first place, and more than likely cheaper.

360bhp with Litchfields Milltek & Ecutek remap..

slap on a MD321 turbo at the same time should see you to 400

Thanks
You do understand that this will totally invalidate any warranty on the car for all parts dont you?
Now understanding that this is a 2.5ltr and not quite knowing if they have upgraded the internals from the old 2.5, stick with around 360bhp for now with a remap, if not then go for the PPP which will retain your warranty, its not cheap if your engine lets go or if any other part of your car fails due to "excessive" enhancements

Hi Tony

Not To bothered about the warranty engine,box,shafts,diffs rebuild are not to expensive.
