BUT you will need a built bottom end with forged internals, lower comps. is a good idea, upgraded valve springs etc.

I've found it absolutely brilliant... but you need to be realistic that it is now a highly stressed engine unit with all the joy and heartache that can follow.
There are no shortcuts.
So I'm looking at forged internals, etc before even trying to hit 250kW? They also have a stage 3 (non flex-fuel kit) that apparently gives 225kW but I'm guessing will need a built bottom end for that too
They don't have any recommendations for that sort of stuff on the webpage so wasn't really sure
