Cheers guys. S40 im getting is a phase 1 2.0 1948cc? Previous car was a mx5 turbo.. boost is addictive so i can see this s40 getting some of the same treatment. Can the stock internals on this engine handle boost? Can i pinch pistons and rods from another model or is a forged bottom end needed? My knowledge is fairly limited at the moment so im unsure of my options, can someone point me in the right direction
