if you spent £2000 and done the work yourself you could get it from 400 to 500bhp

Not to be negative or anything. But what a f**king ludicrous thread.

Its fairly obvious its pie in the sky stuff, but...

OPs posts on forgetting bigger brakes, and not being able to insure a high powered motor. Probably means this sh!t shouldn't be entertained or encouraged.

Though I must admit I am curoius from a technical point of view what it would take to pull those figures.

Would the haldex even cope with that sort of power?
