Flans car is a beast. J3ned is taking the engine out of his and putting it in a Seat Ibiza or sometihng though I think as he was having too many problems with torque steer, also his clio is matt black now rather than orange. |

theres a lot of options out there though.
VAG lumps are nice and deliver power, so do nissan rb20's etc. |

any engine is reliable as long as its
1. constructed properly
2. sufficiently cooled
3. correctly fueled
4. doesn't use substandard parts. |
