if you fit that pulley you will be up to 270ish then get a 3" exhaust and fit the cams and will be over 300 :)

Honestly, no Harrop. Not sure there's much point now 300bhp is possible from the M62.

Yep and 600bhp is probably possible if I fit the 1.9 litre Harrop but it all starts to get a bit silly. I just want a smooth, well mapped and reliable 275'ish. And I reckon that's the limit with the M62 and the low compression pistons (which I still think I regret doing even if it does mean I can theoretically bolt the Harrop on now :wacko: ).

Just noticed on the Thorney website that their webcon throttle bodied car was 2 seconds a lap quicker than its supercharged counterpart. Interesting. Makes you wonder which is the best bet, but the itbs do sound nice. thumbsup
