Not alot really, wont go into great detail but the engine was about £140. It's mainly the little things that have bulked up the price, esp as I'm always upgrading the upgraded if you get what I mean.
Must say though it has to be running around 140bhp as so far it's managed to gain slightly on an Audi S4 Avant 2.7 v6 twin turbo with 270bhp, Mercs CLS 320 CDI (quite easily pulled from that which didn't make him happy one bit!) A4 TSFI thingy. Basically loves making a mockery from German cars as they weigh nearly twice the weight!
Since I've ground the LDA pin I've noticed there's been a fair bit of on boost smoke as it hits a wall at 27psi which I thinks down to the wastegate opening up. It's quite an aggressive grind. So I turned down the fuel nearly 3/4 of a turn which has cleared it up now. So got plenty for the K04 to keep me happy.
