Here's the brief:

You want to build an S50 with a reliable 360bhp at the fly and thrash the nuts off it every time you drive it, ideally without needing to rebuild it every 20 mins.

How would you spec it?

lighter pulleys
lighter clutch flywheel
carbon airbox
viscous fan delete
uprated radiator

ARP head bolts and gasket

chipped ECU with airbox and headers - exhaust
Delete aircon & airpump

I am not sure if you get to 360hp but it should be close

Get a set of nice instruments to record temperatures and pressures
