if i were to go totaly nuts with performance mods and work with an engine.....which engine would you suggest? B21FT or B230FT? i have a B21FT in the car now but dono what kinda shape its in (jus bought this flathood thats been sittin around for 5yrs). i know it ran good b4 it sat. Turbobricks.com has a b21FT as being able to push 250ph and not much more and a B230FT all the way up to 400hp. Then i remember readin about this guy in Sweden (i think) with a 600hp 240 with a B21ET.
I have the B21 but i was hopin to be able to get more than 250hp by the time im done with it. What do you guys think i should do? do you agree with turbobircks or do you think i could safely get more hp out of the B21FT??

Thanks for all the help.
Ian
