Upgrades?

Hello all, just thinking at the moment, but my car currently has a carbd 99 R1 engine in it and I am happy with it, but always on the lookout for more power.

Anyway, what would be the next logical step to improve the power (already has worked head etc), maybe an engine change?

So, if I was to consider an engine change, what would be the best one to go for at the moment, say a ZZR1400? If so, what sort of cost would I be looking at to change the engine etc over?

All this is just wishful thinking at the moment!

Thanks

Lee

Turbo it, cheaper than a new install.
