Still well within the rumoured tolerances though so I don't see what there is to worry about. You, with a 20i, should definitely not be worried.
If it does go pop, that's what the warranty is for.

Tis an interesting read, then i started on the comments..
Didn't know there were so many world class engine designers out there with nothing better to do

Im not worried,
Even if we remap i.e. stage 1 we wont be pushing it but could get 60bhp more.
stage 2 is when you start to pop in new larger turbos or hybrid turbos which are not out yet.
The 2.8 is perfect, faster than a 3.0 straight 6, sub 5.8 seconds, I get better economy, and will be popping in a remap for £400 and will be nipping at the 3.5 at 5.4 seconds for fraction of the cost and running costs.
Would be interesting how a 2.0 with a remap performs, or even a 1.8.
For the 2.8 we are looking at possibility of a 0-60 improvement of 0.4 seconds the 2.0 should easily get below 6 seconds so 1 second improvement?
