There's not many ARZ's about, mate, I don't really know that much about them.  Although, the next big difference between your ARZ & the AUM apart from the turbo, is the VVT.  I'm sure it will make a bit of a difference, but how much of a difference, I'm not sure.

I would think with similar mods to mine, you should be able to hit 220 at least.  (Although, as well as the AUM/Q's, you do have a smaller ported head compared to the superior AGU lump! :P  :D

Well worth a read

Very interesting thread there, Patch.  Think I'm going to stick with what I've got for now, then maybe look into those new shape S3's for later in the year! :P
