    looks good but thought the msd versions are 99?? 220/230 cant be right they are propoer hard work to extract power out of even with cams 3.0 throttle an fse de cat etc your looking at 200bhp

    slip a charger on it!!!

    they are hard to tune, however remapping and cams easy to get over 200 the rest just adds it up. the most you would get at a push is 235bhp unless you s/charge it then bigger figures around 4-500bhp. but for everyday use has to be the 2.0l turbo easy to tune and get really good gains. but v6 just more raw power
