around 270-280 of each and would make a nice reliable daily driver. I wouldn't bother with the front mount tho if staying at this level. Just a better top mount would do the job.

Ive got me a Uk model classic with a Blitz Nurspec, FMIC, decatted, K&N, Warlboro Fuel pump, boost controller and im about to whack a TD05 16G on it with some better plugs and get a bob Rawle remap and im told I should reasonably see 300-320 BHP, I reckon thats the limit for it without killing it and the fact i need to drive it every day, after that itl just get left alone until something lets go, which knowing scoobys, it will sooner or later.

itd easy see more if I put an 20G on it but I dont want it to go bang after 5 seconds lol
