Bit of an update for anyone still interested.
An L67 engine was recently bought for this car.
We will be using the current heads on my car as they are low compression.
The heads will be further ported and worked with a L67 bottom end with a few strengthened parts and few tweaks.
The M90 blower will be full ported and rebuilt. Will probably be using an A2A Intercooler.
Will keep everyone posted =] aiming for 220+ rwkw

It made 138.5rwkw. Not bad for low comp heads. Also noticed my idler pulleys were completed ****ed and didn't even spin on my finger when i took them both off..lol, hope that didn't make me show less power..probz not.

Not 100% sure.. The tuner was very impressive with the torque it made. He said it was very similar to that of a 4L V8 and he was impressed that it made so much power without a cam installed.

Yeah through an AUTO, 200motor kW would be about 140rwKw. loose 30% Manuals are usually 25% loss.
