I wonder if you did if you'd pick up another 50-200hp?
My checkbook struggles to see light of day! The open one was the previous owner, who was guided by the builder who runs a 935 in Britcar, and had a pair of these on the shelf. He said to me himself that apart from a remap ( which I have had done) the turbos would help wih midrange, but the car was only built for top end, and he obviously knew the 27's had the top end capacity.
My priorities are different, hence my request for guidance.
