370 bhp from a NA 2.4 litre?
i somehow doubt that - it either has a charger or someone is lying about the amount of horses!
You'd be hard pushed to get 300 bhp from that unit in NA form.

yes 370 bhp is bang on right as a rally driver i know from my end was looking at putting one of these engines in his mk2 before he sold it last week.The
guy that builds these told him use volvo drive train as they chews gearboxs and diffs for fun! Apparently this guy has been building them for years.
