These engines cost £3000 for a decent rebuild.
Once they go, there is no turning back.
My old V4 sti ran fine with me for 20k. It was running around 310bhp (standard but with a decat exhaust) on standard map. I sold it with around 70k on the clock. It ran find until the new owner fitted a bigger turbo/injectors/new ecu/front mount etc.
Within a week it spun a shell.
So he spent £3000 'improving' it, then it went bang.
Be very careful.
On the road, these cars are fast enough in standard form.
It's only ***** wavers down the pub that feel the need to spunk a few thousand on the credit card, just so that they can be noticed just that little bit more!
I'll get me coat!

And the bill
My engine my be 15years old but it's only done 17000 miles and it already has 550injectors FPR billet rails braided parrell lines large front mount full RCM decat cold air system vf35 I only use this for track I drive there race and drive back I have blown 1box to bits but I no that one had done 135000miles I now have a built stronger 5speed with a curso front diff it's great the thinking behind this up grade is a fast spool and maybe a bit more hp to wave my willie at

You would be asking for trouble bolting a 20G onto a standard V4 engine unless you ran it with **** all boost, but then there's no point.
Spend the money improving your car in other areas. A great brake and suspension setup is worth more than the 50bhp a 20G will give you.
