Ridiculous "scene tax"*

As in you pay £600-£1000 more for a 225 lump than a 150 lump because they are apparently "better" although really the only big difference is the turbo. The lump and pretty much the same.

I have approx 2k to buy and engine fit it and buy mods for it , so that's the reason I want people's verdict on which engine to buy !

I dnt wanna sell it and buy a quicker 1 , I want this 1 doing its just seeing which is the best engine to put in and to tune up , I know it's never gonna be as quick as the evo . I'm just looking for maybe around the 300 bhp ish
