"porous" head is an easy fix tho. Well worth saving the cost of paying about ?200+ for a "cosworth" head.
but when ive already got a coscast head it dont matter. so what your all sayin is go for about 250 bhp to keep it reliable and add nitrous ?
to be honest its still (100 shot nos) about 350 hp say so things are not very reliable and will need regular rebuilds
Yea but no matter what i tune it to it will always need a rebuild as i will be racing it alot when its on the road. TRACK only may i add. But if i tune it to say 250 bhp cant you get a 50 shot of nos? And there is no point just tunnin it to 200 as to be honist it will be quite easy with the tb's im using to get that power
Even 250 is a huge figure for a XE.Quote:

we just currently built a xe to fairly high spec with pulse performance tb's headwork cams woosner pistons,arrow rods emerald management etc etc blar blar that was around the 250 hp mark that was about 7 grand (not sure on the exact figures) so nothing is going to be cheap but do it to what you want then you will be happy
Yea the main thing is the headwork. i want to find one of the best places to do it. and ill be using hiyabussa tb's my mate can get the rest of the stuff easy and ill be using magasqirt and and pocketed pistons but dont know what size cams yet. going to look into that more near the time. And im going to be using a dry sump plus steel rod's etc
