Although as pointed out above/ another thread? Evos were running over 400bhp over 20 years ago (with tuning) and still going now... and that engine was already about 10 years old by then! Although the service intervals weren't great. And I think a few went pop above 400bhpFrom a 4pot 2L, that is impressive, but longevity (of key components) is not something I would hold out hope for.
Funny, but about half of that from my ' noobed' Saab 2L was both impressive and adequate only a few years ago
There's a lovely evo VI extreme rs450 for sale at the mo. One of one in that colour. Weird nomenclature though as I think this was 450 for the lbft, whereas others were for bhp.... but it never made close to that torque....???
EDIT: Sorry for the tangent
