I think for a stage 2 VX your looking at something in the region of.. (over standard)
£280 - Uprated Radiator
£300 - Large Chargecooler
£488 - Exhaust Manifold
£837 - 200cell cat + 2.5" Exhaust
£240 - Cams
£3200 - Supercharger + Manifold + other bits
the new injectors are turbo ones and it runs the standard ECU but mapped by courtenay sport.

should hit 280 but the internals wont cope.
so atm the max it will do is a limited 260.

Knowing very little about cars (so maybe a stupid question), why can't you put, say, a VXR 2.0 turbo in? That'd be 240bhp right there.
Wrong shape/won't fit/designed for FWD presumably?

Or buy one with the turbo already in it.

boot is a different shape so id need a turbo rear clam (new clam, repaint etc etc)
220bhp then need to spend X getting it to 260
its a turbo so lag (albeit not much)
the engine itself probably costs a couple grand, and the supercharger is just dfferent.

so the car has cost you 23k so far then????
s/c vx220 will be far smoother and nicer to handle on the bends! turbo ones seem faster but thst just cos the power comes in with more of a bang! on track s/c one will be faster!
