Speak soon

225whp seems optimistic unless that's at the crank. I'm led to believe 30hp parasitic losses are reasonable for the drive train.
Even at the crank would need work on the induction and a cam to work with that is going to have a very small window.
FI may get you there but that means a fair bit of expense.
Plus probably a chat with John Parker😳

Check out the supercharger for sale for the B18/20, being offered by Roger Portman on this forum - up to 50% additional torque! How's that to put a smile on yer face :-)

Ah...just noticed, both of you have connected :-)
