Another great thing about the Lexus V8 is that it is good for around 500+ bhp without any mods other than a mega-squirt and some sort ofturbo/supercharging.

Think I will probably keep at standard tune for a bit but already seen the bolt on supercharger kits and look very nice :)

That'd be awesome :-)
How much for such a kit?

What axles are you running with this engine?

Had a shock today as I put diesel in the Mitsy and realised I was paying 7p per litre more than petrol. No wonder the Chimny seems to run on air!!!

Which is hardly a trivial modification.

Some Suzukis and a bunch of motorcycles.
