A question for those who know their SR20s - from the list of engine mods given:

ad said:

Engine modifications
HKS 1.2mm metal head gasket
HKS step 2 high lift camshafts
HKS step 2 valve springs
HKS GT 2835 PRO S Ball Bearing Turbocharger
HKS Type R front mount intercooler
HKS oil cooler
HKS Racing suction
HKS Earthing kit
HKS Actuator
Trust TR Power Evolution 2 Muffler Exhaust
Trust mx front pipe
Trust type R BOV
Tomei rocker arm stopper
ST Hitec Custom manifold
Greddy Intake Plenum
60mm Throttle body
Nismo fuel pump
Nismo 740cc injectors
Sard fuel regulator
HPI engine torque damper
Z32 air flow meter
Apexi power FC + commander
HKS EVC 5 boost controller
Sard radiator cap
HKS oil cap
Excedy Heavy Duty Clutch
Is the claimed 420-450 bhp @ 1.3bar feasible (and reliable)?


If so, at $28k NZ (~11k GBP) thats fairly good bang-per-buck for something with more spare change than me...

Seems a bit suss to me given it doesnt seem to list any internal engine modifications, i.e. forged pistons. The GT2835 is rated to around 420 hp though.
