    Yeh, Enan has 2 pairs of them I believe.

    Unfortunately I won't be buying them, about 1k more and alot of extra machining/porting than I assumed would be required and can't bring myself to justify it, despite how awesome it would be.

    lol, you know me too well...ideas still ticking over in my head about how i can justify this to myself...99.9% likely ill let this opportunity pass...

    the price for the throtttles alone, id would be much better off with the head + throttle package...but i have a head with basically the same parts minus the hasslegreen machining/porting...

    Possibly.. call me silly but I think I'd still prefer my motor.. it'll be more fun
    to drive than a highly strung 1.6l..

    The 20v head and throttles are the only parts of interest to me.. Mostly wank factor as I can't see any big improvements over my current setup, maybe 5kw and slightly more torque but it should have enuff as it is..
