Thanks to everyone for the help/advice. Just gathering my options. My wife wants to move this year so we've set our criteria: she wants 4 bedrooms, big kitchen etc and I'm after my double garage/workshop

Not been out in a BEC but I'm looking for a combination of power to weight and relaxed torque.

Cheers again,

Jim

Try a BEC, they have better power to weight than car engines and you'd be surprised how relaxed the torque can be.

Why is it that I've never heard of someone using a C20LET Vauxhall??
It barks out a healthy 204 BHP bog standard? and a simple chip would get you another 50 horses minimum!

I will use one in my locost....
(290 BHP and 400Nm!)












Is it because they are too expensive?
Is the weight a concern?

TELL ME WHYYYY??! please...

Wouter
