Spec list is mid way down first page... Its an F7R Engine in essence, different internals etc ofc.
But being its an F7R Engine it makes you wonder if you could fit it in a 340
612BHP In a 340..
The fact its in that Ibiza is mental enough!
I do find myself doubting over 600 break from a 2L.. But its boosted and seems to have a LOT of money thrown into it..
May be an interested read to somebody, or maybe im just sad

I'd love to see the dyno plot
Awesome spec, but I fail to be convinced it's *that* powerful!

why not only standard parts is the head and block evos can push that power and there 2.0lr 16vs with a shed load of money its doable

TR30R turbo is T25 based, flows up to about 550bhp theoretical but rarely see one on a engine above 450bhp
it is a nice enginesetup though

Just not convinced the head can flow for it, I'd love to be prooved wrong. But as it stands, I would have thought it'd be a bit of a dyno queen even if it did make that power.

it does have a bit of headwork; quote from website above: big valve mods & custom ports to cylinder head

I have big valves and a custom port to cylinder head though
I know, I'm probably doing the guy a disservice
I just struggle to believe a lot of the net's power claims and you know how difficult it is to make a driveable 200bhp+ per litre engine!
