    the engine has 13.5 to 1 comp with longer rods crank has lost 2.5 kilos off it head has been cleaned up and flowed with steel valves of 340 hp at 600 thou lift
    the cams are 500 thou with 10degress of vvti still working the inlet is 1 of my own and also the 50mm quad set up is 1 of my own as well
    on the injection side of things it has std 365 cc inboard and has 1000cc 230mm further back
    the 2 stage is set up inside the big air box
    this motor idles at 800 rpm and sounds like std motor thanks to the vvti
    this whole set up is controlled by a m800 mtec ecu
