Here is another impulse buy and another project I was destined never to finish.

tempted, but no car to put it in, mmm

Are these engines fast? What are the brake horses on them?

I got this from mole on here. Standard is only 120 bhp but that is only running 4 psi which is low and can be cranked up. Although please don't take my word as final on this as I am not an expert. From what I hear having it chipped will give about 170 bhp.

170hp out of a 2.0 meggy/Willaims rebuilt engin isn't difficult though plus its quicker to respond.

The williams engine is what I have opted for and total agree with you. But a 1.7 turbo would be a lot cheaper than getting a f7r.

im so tempted! only thing thats worrying me is not telling the insurance! (im 18 btw so there is no chance of me declaring it and affording it lol)

Get a quote with Adrian Flux, I find there understanding when it comes to mods.
