That's a big ask, is it for a road car?

I have started posting on Instagram also my name on there is turbomk1golf

Nothing is impossible it just costs more and takes longer.

250 is pushing the envelope, plenty of us struggle to get near to 200bhp.

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

nitrous but i doubt you'll do more that a few dyno pulls *evil*

http://www.swiftune.com/Product/1423/swift...piston-set.aspx

it seams to be more trouble holding things together as the really nice parts are a million dollars

more displacement will help thats for sure 1460cc 16v 15-20 psi boost on E85 would be my bet for that sort of power

if you have the wallet anything is possible see here

I know two people who have made more than 250hp with a K-head and Turbo, and one of which was way beyond this.

I think the hard thing will be finding a RR that the car will stay down on, to give you the numbers your looking for, when I got up to the 190s the car just did not want to stay on the rollers at all *frown*

It became very on safe fast.

You need more than 8 valves, that's for sure.

But is doable with a bit of thought. Not something that anyone is likely to give you a spec for, not for fre anyway.

Specialist components built such an engine, maybe a place to start?

What will you do with all those 250+ horses in such a light car? Spin the wheels and aim for the ditch?

Big is not always better *wink*

150 is shit scary in an old mini want anything more than that buy something modern like the skoda fabia vrs. I find small horse power minis more fun than massive power ones
