If the h/w is stock-ish then V10 is a simple and effective solution!
We choose to go to on with this endeavour at this time and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard…

Sorry to sound dumb but what do you mean by h/w?

As far as MHD V10 is concerned that's a stock system just tick the relevant boxes on V10 plus octane rating and and any other xHP / DCT related stuff and you are ready to go..should see about 400 bhp ish and 650nm torque ish

Brilliant thanks. Is there anyway of reducing turbo lag?

There is no real turbo lag on that config if all your plumbing is ok...

The main issue is lugging the engine with so much torque low down, bad on the engine..ok if you are crusing along but if you want to make rapid progress then is its a DCT put it sports mode or shift yhe stick across and let the engine spin more.. :thumbsup: :driving:
