Why? Is it as good as a Williams BE? How much does it cost and what sort of power increase do you get? Cheers guys.

about four hundred. not so much power as torque.

i thought the extra torque was found from the head ?
or do they have more in the bottom end too ???

did have a race vs a really nice one around the m275 one night :)

but me and summy laughed as he braked hard as a copper was in front and the car bottomed out and sparks were flying off the bottom of the down pipe :)

no extra torque by way of 200cc capacity increase and longer stroke. megane also has a better head but needs more work to make it fit. machining for the dizzy and manifold problems etc.

yeh a did mean a valver, so can you just do it to a valver with no messing about changing loads of stuff? And what gains do you normally get? Cheers
