If you went high boost in that 205 it would be seriously quick mate. If your not worried about the engine blowing, it would be a good test to see how much boost and power the std lump could take before it blew. I'm thinking circa 300bhp, but I could be wrong.________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone  |

Yeah that's what I was thinking , a genuine 300 would be awesome on std engine, as it's only a track car, wouldn't do many miles, buy they would all be hard miles ________________________________________ Do you need a 205 > 306 gti6 plug and go engine loom?

Yes, I can see that point, but it goes back to the old saying of better to buy standard and modify, rather than buy already modified.Stan. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

The only practical differences between a bank loan and a student loan are the acceptance criteria and repayment terms. It doesn't affect your credit rating, and they get written off (if you earn f*ck all over the span your career). A student loan is more of a tax than a loan, it is even taken from your pay like a tax. Also, how many loans have a rate of interest that is the rate of inflation? ________________________________________ Ex SC-6Now in a Megane R26 |
