Thinking of getting a G4 sports car that will be brand new, with a 2lt Zetec engine and have been told that about 175 bhp is about a powerful as you can get that will make it through the SVA, EU3 emissions and future MOT's.

Not sure if it makes a difference but the exhaust system would be short like say a caterham.

Is that correct?

I know I would be better with a duratec but the Exhaust system would be on the wrong side and there are no body panels to re-configure the car.

Raceline engines have said that they can do 200 BHP or more with throttle bodies that would pass SVA..
