Nah I didn't include 'I' or 'V' so most of us have an option to choose. I figure there'll only be a couple of people here that have 4-bangers.

Well, that certainly answered the question for me... cheers :drinks2:

I have no plans to go with forced induction (or V8 for that matter) although I'd love to; it's a question of money and I got none :cry:

But yeah; if twenty grand turned up in my letterbox I'd build a killer turbo 6 for my EF :beg:
