It performed pretty well when comparing it to a harroped one over here on the dyno.

Slightly later start in torque climb, but then comparable way up.

 

Try driving one....

The obdtuner guy had it for 2 years.

I could not keep up with him. (he was pushing 317 hp with his C30) 

Like i said; his dynosheet looked pretty ok.

 

Never driven it myself though.

Rotrex users can just channel it back into a plastic 2.4 manifold.

Too bad GM bumped up the price of it to silly level.

 

The 2.4 inlet?  I have one sitting doing nothing in the shed.

Cash in there Bob.

GM uprated it to 450$ new these days.

I saw that Courtney and thorney had upped the price a while back.  It's ridiculous now isn't it.

Suppose I should get round to selling it at some point.

Probably at some point, but at that price I could afford new suspension for the shed.

I doubt you will get 450 for it.

Running price is around 100, even for the euro boys.

The going rate used to be £100 when they were £200 new.

I'm sure I could get nearer £150-170 given the current prices.  ;)

Stick it on ebay, incl shipping to Europe, and see what it does.
