Been looking at a couple of Audi engined Exige S1's at about 330bhp and was just wondering what kind of stats this would have in terms of accelaration and top speed?
Are there any known problems that may occur also?
Thanks in advance for advice.

well, not sure exactly, but I would suggest <4 to 60, ~8 to 100 and top out the other side of 170

I assume for that sort of power you would at least need a charge cooler for the boost temps.

Bernards installs have an air/air intercooler as std...

From a purely theoretical viewpoint, Im surprised an A2A IC can work for more than a few seconds, esp in comparison to W2A IC, i.e. comparing the relative density of water to air etc. Also A2A would need high constant speed, not much use on a twisty track.

Also curious about the power drop of these turbos comparing say second lap power with tenth lap, must be pretty big (80hp?), or?

Im guessing that will work! Cheers for the image. FYI Im working rather theoretically with ultra downsized variable comp turbo engines, which are super frugal, but need proper intake cooling to work in their WOT phase, it is refreshing to see a proper setup, i.e. lumps of metal delivering cooled charge that can deliver sustained WOT power. This theoretical work can get a bit abstract and draining at times.
