150bhp AFAIK as standard, it has the larger ports and stronger internals so can cope with more tuning than the other engines.

For a KO4 turbo you'll need a new exhaust manifold and will have to amend the routes of some of the pipes and a remap will be needed as well to fully release the potential. A lot of guys just go for a KO3's hybrid turbo which is a drop in replacement but what power figure are you aiming at?

i have not really thought about what sort of power i want to get out of it. (whats safe?)
whats the best car to take the ko3s off?
